      If I understand your question correctly

      I am not sure 😉
      From my example exo2 upper
      I wish of course the Move rotating Scaling of the big cube to the "little" also in 3 seconds between the 2 Scenes 😉

        Please download latest version supporting unlimited number of positions/scenes.

        1. Sketchy Physics has its own "animation" so it is better to setup there a starting position of a "natural" chain reaction (gravity), without "proper animation"
        2. "proper animation" does not have its own speed control, but relies on sketchup settings of scene transition times. you may use few scenes as part of a single long leg of a animation part
        3. the intent is not building a new "Lively" like 3D world, only unleashing current sketchup users creativity demonstrating their models to customers

        I guess google will release a 3D software tool for Lively, maybe Sketchup 7 ?
        Lively can be more attractive destination than 3D warehouse or google earth.

        Post more animated models, Moris

          Hello Morisdov

                THX guys

                I've effectively downloaded the release and saw some changes in the ruby file.
                -- About Transformation: just click on the last shown position in the list and then
                a new one will be created automatically. (It's not obvious the first time ) 😉

                      HI John

                      Just have look on this ( on the same thread Ruby). Don't worry about frenglish
                      You'll find probably some interesting solutions.

                        I am glad you all find this plugin usefull and hopefully are able to get more out of SketchUp and are more productive for your customers.
                        John - you already have the functionality you requested - note that the "get" is grayed out until you "set" its position, only after which it becomes "active" non grayed.
                        Anyway all your feedbacks will be noted and considered for coming versions.

                        Cheers, Moris

                          if you want a full report of all entities "Position X" data with all other "dictionary attributes" - you can use "xml_dictionary_attributes.zip" from http://morisdov.googlepages.com - you get an online web dialog with all the data in addition to the XML file on the disk.

                            Hi Morris:

                            I tried the script last night. It was easy enough to figure out how to "tag" groups with the Set and Get parameters. Very nice.

                            However, I found I stumbled with saving things with a Scene. Probably just my slow mind ... but a set of a few screen captures with text explanations OR video with Narration might be helpful for others too.

                            One place I found where one could easily screw up, is if you are careless and accidentally click on a Set Position for an group which already has a position(s) assigned to it. Perhaps there could be an default option to warn user before overwritting the existing parameter?

                            I wish there were a way to analysis the entire model as to which objects are tagged, with their positions settings and do so for all of them at once ... perhaps in the transform dialog there could be a SHOW command which would display some type of labeling of objects and their tags?

                            Regards,
                            John

                              New version 1.03 released of - "Proper_Animation.rb"

                              • no more need to restart "Animation Observer" to reflect new/deleted scenes
                                I have implemented the "PagesObserver interface" so this is done automatically now

                                How can I tell the ruby console, to »Get Position - 2«?

                                I ask this to have a proper animation, without getting all other remembers of a scene.

                                  Select only the objects you want to move to position 2 (those that indeed have position 2 set) and right mouse click "Transformation->Get position 2".
                                  Other objects will not "move".

                                    and right mouse click "Transformation->Get position 2". …

                                    Ah, I understand. Get Position - 2 is only available to those object, which have Set Position - 2. Now my question is, how not to use right mouse click, but to »Get Position - 2«. So my idea is, to us the ruby console to select one object (by name). Now my question is, how to tell the selected object to »Get Position - 2«?

                                          I see no difference. My elevator in scene 1 is as fast as my elevator in scene 2. But to change from one scene to the other takes 8 or 2 seconds.
