[Plugin] TIG_Slicer v7
-
maybe abandoning "floor" wording and using object's origin. plus option for Z Offset.
-
I'll stick with two extra options in Z slicing - Start Z ref at 0 or 1 - and - Z ref upwards - i.e. 'ground' = 0 or 1.
Of would you like Start Z ref to be something like -2 for 2 basements then the slices are -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, etc
Also would you like the ref to pas with leading zeroes as now ? or perhaps 01 not 001 ? or plain 1, 2, 3 etc -
Thanks for this update sir. I just gave it a test. It's amazingly fast.
FWIW, it works fine for me as it is.

Version 7.1 is now available.
https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=TIG_SlicerOperation is much as the previous versions, but with additional Dialog options added:
= add reference slices 'upwards' [Yes|No] - more logical when slicing a building massing model into floor plates.
= start reference at 0 or 1 - this covers some countries who use 1 for 'ground' floor [calling it 'first'], versus 1 for 'first' floor [meaning first 'upper' floor], thus it lets you start at 0 or 1 for the 'ground' floor to suit your local naming convention.
= reference labels are now auto-moved logically onto the 'top' face of each slice - positioned near bottom left corner, offset by thickness in X&Y, to minimize potential clashes and awkwardness, although of course it's possible to contrive a form that when sized has slices with insufficient face area that can't always nicely accommodate their entire label.Feedback here please.

@TIG Thank you very much!

The ancient toolbar icons have been modernized as SVG/PDF for PC/MAC and old PNGs auto-deleted. -
SlicerSVG.zip
SVG's not loading. Use these, edit with VectorCraft, it's free. -
@TBoy
SVGs work fine for me in newer versions of SketchUp ?
What OS, what SketchUp version please ? -
v2020 on W10, I see toolbar with 4 empty buttons.. When I edit svg files I see just 1 scaled up, pixelated image layer of the old-png-icon inside svg. No vector drawing inside. (Toolbar name is still Slicer5)
-
I haven't tired it on a Windows or SketchUp version that old.
If you icons work OK on my newer system I'll look at packaging them with an update... -
Just tested your SVG alternatives and they do work fine on my newer versions too.
They are also slightly sharper [but not very noticeably so].
I'll package them with v7.2 RBZ and update the PluginStore's entry...
I'll also update the MAC's PDF equivalents... -
v7.3 will be published in the PluginStore / ExtensionStore shortly...
It incorporates the better icons from @tboy and Slicer5 references are changed to Slicer7 in various places...
