what is the outliner?
Menu Window/ Outliner = Arborescence system of the objects
well, certainly I dont need to close it, since i NEVER opened it!
-
Thanks for the replies, but i'm afraid the outliner is not the problem. I only opened the outliner in the first place because i was getting bug splats. I used the outliner as a quick way to get rid of things i thought might be slowing the model down or causing bug splats. I'd be grateful if anybody could try to resolve the problem in the model i attached earlier in the thread. I think zorro2 could be an amazing tool but i just keep getting bug splats constantly
-
Are you getting the bugsplat just with Zorro2 or with other rubies also?
-
Dale I noticed I always have to reverse section cut before "slice model at section".
May be alternatively you could "inverse" this tool? -
Whaat, I've got 2 files. The first one is the original, its geometry is a result of a simple Follow Me. The second one is a derivative of the first, with some bits manually cut out. The latter Bug Splats almost every time I try to Zorro it up. The former lets me slice it any which way I want, every time. I'm on WinXP SP3, SU7. Do you mind checking it out? TIA
-
I take it it's unresolvable?
-
For me "Bugsplats" arrives also
But maybe it's not a good idea to make a zorro2 on surfaces? -

I really don't know what the problem is. Zorro sometimes just causes random bugsplats. I see no reason that it would work for the first file but not for the second. Ruby plugins are more prone to bugsplats than using straight SketchUp for various reasons. I believe that SketchUp has its own internal entity observers that are probably the culprit.
-
Whaat, I see. Thanks for looking into it. I've remodelled the shape slightly using different path, deleted the middle bits, and now it doesn't bugsplat as often. Go figure
Pilou, you mean as opposed to cutting groups & components? Maybe. I'll try, but I would have thought slicing groups would be a more complex task than modifying faces directly
-
Thanks a lot fotr this amazing plugin , but how d you install?
-
Download it from the first post in this topic. Save it to C:\Program Files\Google\SketchUp7\Plugins folder. (thats an approximate guess of the exact path, and it might be different on your computer. But just put it in your "Plugins" folder inside your SketchUp installation folder).
Then it will be installed in SketchUp the next time you run SketchUp.
And welcome to the forum!

I am a novice to this topic and a mac user, so please bare with me...
I saved the file "thumbs.db" (not ".rb"?) into the plugins folder and nothing happened.
I then changed the file to "thumbs.rb" and when i opened SU I received the error "Invalid char `\021' in expression".
what should i change? -
Hi drew, delete that thumbs.rb file. Thats not the right one. I'm not quite sure where you got the thumbs file from.
In the first post of this topic there is a file called zorro.rb. That is the file you want to copy to your plugins folder. So delete the thumbs.db and put the zorro.rb file into plugins, and then start SketchUp and you should be good to go,

I have got a file, where Zorro crashes constantly.
I created the geometry in a bigger file and tried to slice it. it crashed. I copied the geometry to a new SU file. it crashed again.in the end I had to redraw the whole thing in a new file. and everything worked fine.
any idea why that is?
I attached the file for you to experiment...
