            You type the Unicode '007e' then 'Alt+X'..... BUT it only works in MicroSoft tools like Word etc, and NOT in Sketchup!

              yes but what is the key for start Unicode?
              If I use Alt+.... it's finally open some shortcuts menu! 😳
              (I just try with the NotePad and WordPad )
              It's not vital πŸ˜‰ As the more simple is copy past from the post here πŸ˜„
              And I have it on my keyboard πŸ˜„

                Alt+0126 writes a tilde [~]...
                Into Sketchup Text objects and any dialog text-fields etc - the symbol appears when you release the Alt key πŸ˜„

                Here's a useful list of all of the PC's 'Alt codes', used to get special symbols into your text... http://www.alt-codes.net/
                Some are more useful than others like...
                degrees Alt+167/248/0176 º°°
                half Alt+171 Β½
                plus/minus Alt+241 Β±
                divide Alt+246 Γ·
                squared Alt+253 Β²
                cubed Alt+252 Β³
                bullets Alt+7/8/9/10 β€’β—˜β—‹β—™
                cent Alt+0162 Β’
                euro Alt+0128 €
                French "" Alt+174/175 Β« Β»
                Spanish inverted-qu'/ex'mark Alt+168/173 ΒΏ Β‘

                BUT ☺β™ͺβ™«β˜Όβ†¨β€Ό

                  Ah ok I must tranform hexa 7e in decimal! πŸ’­ β˜€ 😳
                  so 7E = 126 πŸ˜’
                  Now all works fine πŸ‘
                  Seems ALT + 126 ~is sufficient~

                        hi TIG,

                        Recently I did a project with lots of (high-polycount) trees and several camera positions. I really was missing some kind of LOD system. For instance, in one view some trees were very near and I wanted to use the high res version, in another view they were more in the distance and a low poly version would have speeded up the export of the views.

                        So I looked for an LOD system for sketchup and Google turned up your 'old' plugin. I tried it in Sketchup 8 (the clients preferred version) but I can't get it to work. See attached file (all the components should be saved inside). What am I doing wrong??

                        Regards, Max

                          You example SKP only contained instances that were called 'doos'.
                          If they had been named 'doos+' or 'doos-' or 'doos~' the Proximity WILL work.
                          So Select all of the 'doos' and use the context-menu option in the Components-Browser to replace all selected with 'doos-' ...
                          Run the tool and, depending on your settings and the instances distance from the camera, you'll get 'doos+' or 'doos-' or 'doos~' for each appropriate instance...
