Note for installation on Vista 64bit (and on XP 64 too I guess):
Modify the path in 1001bit_path_win_su7.rb to
$GH1001bit_path="C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 7/Plugins/1001bit" in order to get the path to work, otherwise the ruby looks in the 64bit program files path (with 64bit OS, the 32bit programs are placed in the "program files (x86)" folder).
Thanks for the good work!Ryo
hi, above is another feedback on installation for windows 64bit, from a registered beta tester, Ryo
Thanks Ryo

GOHCH, I am experiencing Bugsplats when I 'Ctrl Copy and divide' in SU. Not sure it if there is a bug with yor offset or array tools that are effecting the standard SU functions.....
Also, I have noticed a slight delay with my screen graphics; when I pushpull it is most noticed.... Not sure if you or others using this toolset are experiencing this. -

Does it occur if you exit Sketchup and start Sketchup again?
Is anybody experiencing similar problem?
Thanks -
thanks GOHCH, only experienced it in a new model...
Have closed the file and opened it and still occurs. I purged the file and is only about 3Mb... -
Thank you for the great plugins. They have this ArchiCAD feel to them, love it. I am glad to see someone
focusing on architectural tools and doing it well.
Have been playing around with it on Windows and all looks quite promising. One thing i have
noticed is that when you use the build wall tool you can not follow the axis. Ideally you should be able to inference
the normal way and use shift to lock on one axis or another. Same goes for the other plugins.Waiting for the working MAC version and the Tool bar
-
hi Fakircho,
Thanks for the feedback, Yes, I should have the inference added in the next upgrade soon.
As for the Mac, ordered a Macbook but the earliest they can deliver is 2 weeks later; seems like Apple is pushing out a new model. I'm eagerly waiting for my Macbook to start working on the mac version.

hi guys,
i've added some inference to the Vertical Wall tool;
pressing the down button will cycle through the following inference modes1 - lock current direction, next if the cursor is on an edge, projects to intersection point, else project to point nearest to the cursor position on the current direction.
2 - lock current direction, project to point on the x axis of cursor
3 - lock current direction, project to point on the y axis of cursor
4 - release
upwards button release the lock
right button - locks in x axis
left button - locks in y axis
Note that you can enter exact distance anytime.
Anyone want to try out please replace the attached vx_wall.rbs file with the one you have. (not sure whether i can attach rbs file here, zipped it just in case)
cheers!

Error:
No such file to load -- C:/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 7/Plugins/1001bit/1001bit_loader.rb -
Thanks for the inference addition to the wall tool.
I hate to be difficult but can it work the same way as the rest of the Sketchup tools. That is
when you pint with your mouse it should pick up the red or green axis and then you lock it with the shift key? That would be perfect -

can you double check whether you have moved the 1001bit_loader.rb file to the Plugins folder?
1001bit_loader.rb file should be in 1001bit folder while
1001bit_tools.rbs file should be in Plugins folder.
thanks -
Well I rather do all work by myself organized like I want it
-
Hi GOHCH,
the files are in the folders as specified but the error continues ...
the file 1001bit_tools.rbs must be in both folders, 1001bit and Plugins folder?
Thanks -
For GOHCH
My folders...

Some questions about the stair components. Will it be possible to have some attribute options
on a stair so that you can select different handrails for example and also give it some parametric options
or would one always have to make a new stair if changes are needed ? -

My folders...hi dizain,
i believe it's the path/language:
please use notepad to edit the 1001bit_path_win_su7.rb file in Sketchup's plugins folder.
change the path
$GH1001bit_path="C:/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 7/Plugins/1001bit"
to
$GH1001bit_path="C:/Programmi/Google/Google SketchUp 7/Plugins/1001bit"cheers!

Current tools creates a new set of staircase and doesn't allow for real time editing of parameters.
As for handrails, you can use the vertical wall tool to create handrails. (the vertical wall tool can allow for selection of custom drawn profile)
meanwhile, i am working on a handrail tool that can extrude along curve-twist path correctly.cheers!

Everything works ok ...
For the cost of the plugins?
Thanks Gohch. -

Thanks Gohch.hi dizain,
Don't want to charge anything until i've sorted out the Mac version, and make sure that it is stable.
after that we'll have to put a stop to the free license.The current beta test license is valid without time limit for this version of 1001bit tools.
Mac users can register for beta test license now and keep it for the Mac version later.
(sorry guys, still waiting for may macbook.... no stock, i hope they can deliver soon...)As for retail price of 1001bit...
please let me keep it secret for a little while longer. 
cheers! -
Hope with the same license or should I register again?
I've had registered earlier but I'm a Mac user. -

No need to register again. The activation key for windows and mac will be the same.
cheers!
