any update for this plugin in the near future?
Thank you very much.will love it ¡

I'm surprised that more people don't use this. Having quick access for toggling on/off hidden geometry, work lines, hide rest of model, perspective and a few other of my most often used tools is invaluable to me. It saves me truckloads of time. Thanks Jim.

Sorry... I meant thanks Dan.

Plus you can customise native and plugin toolbars.
And this plugin does work in 2014

sure, i know you can do this by keyboard shortcuts.. but i like to do this sort of thing with toolbars buttons, having basically any sort ofshortcuts + modifier combo (ctr+alt+...) already assigned to tons of tools/plugins and so on..

I like to have buttons for things that I use fairly often but not often enough that I have the shortcuts programmed into my fingertips. Thos being the case, it's faster for me to have the buttons instead of pausing to remember what the shortcut is and having to try a couple of keys before I finally get it.
Otherwise you are right. Shortcuts are always faster, as long as you remember what they are.

And where is the key "Make component"?
-
Not all SketchUp commands are available from the Ruby API. If the API does not support a command, as it does not with Make Component, then the command will need to be recreated from the beginning. It is possible to recreate the Make Component command in Ruby. I will work on it this coming week, unless someone has already written such and and would be kind enough to share it.
-
I'm a bit confused Jim, Make component is available in your toolset.
Perhaps the question is what Key stroke is Make Component, the default for that is g. -

Unfortunately, it uses a send_action which does not appear to work in SketchUp 2014.

Works perfectly in my version of 2014.
-
Ah, it opens the dialog when loose geometry is selected. I had selected a Group. Thanks.
-
Tried both 'standard' plugin location and additional location.

Hello Bob,
- You need to install TIG's Purge All plugin.
- I thought I trapped that error.
Will look into it. Thanks for taking time to report.
-
Bob, I posted a new version this morning in the Plugin Store, but didn't have time to mention it. Did you find and try the update?
You still need to install TIG's purge_all plugin for the custum button to work.
