Testers Arise - RpEdits - new free add-on for SketchUp

Jean-Franco

Al, thanks for your clear explanation.
I continue to use your tool and I'll see if the problems I mentionned appear again.
RpEdits is really a nice collection of tools.
What I appreciate the +++ is the stretch tool.
Thanks again and Merry Christmas !

Jean-Franco

Al, is it possible to have the UnDo command in the Stretch Selection Tool as in some others ?

I'll give it a shot. That would be good for the tab which stretches to specific sizes because it could re-read and re-display the dimensions after the undo of any size change.

Great work Al! This is a nice add on even for experienced users. You continue to be an amazing contributor to the community and I would just like to say thanks.

Have a great holiday!

You too - Al

That's exactly the main reason why I ask for.
Would be great if you can.

Do let me know if it fails with a new drawing with a single face in it.

I need to know whether it fails all the time, or just sometimes.

Also, open the SketchUp Ruby Console before loading or running RpEdits. It may give us a clue as to what is going wrong.

Thanks,

Al

Mr. Hart

Well I found the problem. I had an old out of date Rp_Tools installed. When I remove this script the Rp_edit script worked great.

Note I PM you a couple of video files showing how the program worked before I discovered what the problem was. So please disregard these video files.

Thanks for the great script.

We purchased a Mac to get started on Mac versions - but we still have a lot to learn, and a long, long, way to go.

Hey, I was "PC" from the mid 80's until last year....... If I can make the switch anyone can...... By-the-way,,, I LOVE THE MAC!!!! One of the best things I've done...

Please keep going on the RpEdits......

Thanks for the reply....

Thank you very much, Al. I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but I look forward to doing so.

This is a great tool. Seems to work fine for me. I clicked on "Load RPEdits when Starting. . . " etc but it doesnt load on startup. What am I doing wrong?

Al Hart

I don't remember if I implemented that feature or not. I'll take a look.

Here's another question . .. On the mirror tool, how does one mirror and object about a specific point, say the mid point of some line, a la the mirror.rb?

Thanks,

David

I have "load rpedits when starting Sketchup" checked, (in rpedits start window), but I still have to load it every time I open Sketchup. It's just a bit annoying, please help.

I just fixed this and will try to upload a new version today.

Apparently this function is useful to you. Can you offer any suggestions for improvements?

The mirror tool was designed to mirror placements of workstations - for instance converting left handed desks to right handed desks.

In order to do a mirror through a point, you would have to mirror x,y and then z, and then move the new item to the desired location.

We released a new version of RpEdits. - IA23t

The main fix is that the "Load RpEdits when starting SketchUp" checkbox works.

Startup works now for me. Thanks! Great tool.
