[Plugin] 1001bit Tools - Architectural tools for SketchUp
-
Thanks Goh, I'll go try it out..... I assumed 1 row or 1 column would add a mullion or transom to the panel...
-
I did try that Goh but still the problem is occurring. I will PM you the .skp file and a short .swf file of the process.....
thanks!!! -
hi Andrew,
really odd, because i have no problem using the panel divider tool on the same face that you seems to have problem with,
with the same settings.
utiler-dividepanel.swf
i'll try a few different configurations and see....
thanks -
hi everyone, version 1.1.3 is now ready for download.
Upgrades include:1) Slope selected edges tool - converts selected edges to slope along a fixed gradient.
http://www.1001bit.com/products/slopeedges.shtml
user can enter:- height difference
- angle (in degrees)
- gradient (as in 1 to 200)
- pick end level
This tool comes with an interactive dialog box that can be used to calculate angles, gradient, or height.
This tool can be used to create sloping path/driveway from flat plane.
2) Extrude along path tool - extrude profile along selected path.
http://www.1001bit.com/products/extrude1.shtml
This tool solves the twisting problem that occurs when you extrude a profile along a curved and sloping path with SU's standard followme tool.Useful for creating handrails for spiral staircases, carpark ramps, cicular ramps etc.
3) Bug fixes on horizontal and vertical louvres tools.
User can now enter 0 for louver thickness to create single plane louvres.
4) Option to show different toolbars separately.
from menu View >> ToolbarsInstallation
Just download the file
http://www.1001bit.com/download/1001bit(1.1.3).zip
and replace/overwrite the current files in your 1001bit folder.The user license that you have for v1.1.x is still valid. If you choose to delete the old folders before installing the new ones,
Please keep a copy of the 1001bit.key file, which contains your license information.
As long as you put this file back into the 1001bit folder, your license remains valid.Thanks and cheers!

Way to go, Goh!!!

Works like a charm!
Except Undo to the beginning of the start session Seems block after Extrude profil along a path!
Soften Edges seems the blockage! And it's repeatable at any times!
So Big bug!
(V6) (Plug not install in the V7)

hi Pilou,

Thanks and cheers!

Fantastic toolset.
-
Works fine now!
-
i like the new extrude tool much better than fak.rb (well, i think i do.. i haven't done a real world test with it yet:) )
-
That's a very nice comparison. I was wondering what their difference would be. I can see there's uses for both the variants.
-
Fak asks to have the face section on the curve path
1001 permits to have the face section out of the curve path -
fak....? I haven't seen this one....
Who's is it Pilou?
-
Follow me and Keep
So FAK -
Pilou,
Gee, you could be bogged down in extensions nowadays.... -
One request related tot he toolbars, could you put them into a submenu in the View->Toolbars menu?
-
hi Thomas,
I'm still finding my way around how to better organize the toolbars. Don't really like what i have now because it just fills up the entire pull down menu. I'll work on making something that is more efficient in the next upgrade.
Thanks -
What would be really great was if you had a webdialog which allowed you to add and remove the various buttons. You might wan to look into Organizer. Quite a few plugins support customizing via that.
btw, the slope edge tool; great! And just in time. I just had a rush project today where I had a curved ramp and this tool was a lifesaver.

You beat me to it Thomas, I was going to suggest just that!!!
I think it would be be as simple as grouping the icons into separate toolbars so we can view which ever we really need.
say:
Architecture [Walls / partitions / stairs / windows / doors / roofs..]
Draw [draw / setting out / arrays....]
Edit [as listed in the drop down menus....]Not sure how to do this but with some BIM programs I have used 'stack' their functions under an icon and identify this by a small triangle in the bottom corner of the icon. Click on the icon and a vertical drop down of the toolset appears.....
Hope this helps.
Cheers, -
Thanks guys, for the ideas. i'll definitely look into this. Need to explore different options.
Thought of using the webdialog with a series of checkboxes to show and hide different group of icons, however, i'm having a hard time arranging different group of toolbar nicely in SU. They just keep pushing each other around.
Not sure is this a SU problem or simply i haven't master this part yet.
I'll experiment with both approach and see where they lead to.
