      Apple,
      I confess I do something similar albeit using Curio to manage the info on the plugins.

      What would be nice would be if one of the Ruby experts could tie in such a list to the plugin loader (http://www.alexschreyer.net/projects/plugin-loader-for-sketchup/) which find very useful for rarely used plugins that I don't want cluttering up the menus.

        hi again,
        can't really find a relevant thread for the below but how many plugins/ruby scripts are too many plugins for your sketchup to cope with?
        Also which plugins are known to have problems such as crashing?

        i only ask as i've been trying to take time and learn/practice how each plugin works and some that where working fine at an earlier date such as color by z for example now aren't (the progress bar gets stuck at 0%). the only plugin which i read from somewhere that causes problems is the 'follow this' plugin - but are there others from the pdfs that i posted in a previous post that could be also known to cause grief?

        thanks

          So just start a new thread. Not many people are going to find your questions burried in non-related threads.

                I can´t believe I didn´t update.

                The topic is locked, I cannot edit posts so if a moderator can replace Round Edge - v1.0 (by Bezier) with this one:


                [url=http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=20485:21slifsk]RoundCorner - v2.1[/url:21slifsk]

                I´m sure the next must have plugin will be [url=http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=1306&start=210#p216592:21slifsk]this one[/url:21slifsk]! Can´t Wait!!!

                    TIG's Extrusion Tools (EExR, etc.) need to be added to the visual index as a set, I would think, but I'm no moviemaker.

                    I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

                      I only download Extrude Edges By Rails and it´s a must have one.

                      About the other ExtrudeTools:
                      ExtrudeEdgesByEdges
                      ExtrudeEdgesByLathe
                      ExtrudeEdgesByVector
                      ExtrudeEdgesByFace
                      ExtrudeEdgesByRailsByFace
                      ExtrudeEdgesByFaces

                      If someone can make the movie will be great to learn in which cases we can use this tools.

                        Attached is a plugin that will open the "essential plugins page" from SU. Haven't read all the post here, or on the locked page to know if this was already done. Moderator please delete, or relocate as you see fit.

                                There really should be something like a wiki to organize and show examples for ALL the plugins living here.

                                  Ok...as I go deeper into this rabbit hole called SketchUcation as a new user, I am pleasantly surprised by the capabilities of Sketchup thanks in most part by the contributions of the community. Stumbling on the visual and this thread concerning plugins is making my head feel like it's about to explode. I sit here at my monitor feeling almost frozen to choose my first plugin to play with but I will get over it very soon after I finish typing this post of gratitude to all who contribute to this.

                                  To SketchUcation and all plugin contributors....THANK YOU!

                                    Hi, Mistro:
                                    May I suggest for appetizers--that is, if you have not already selected them-- Weld.rb and Mirror.rb, which I think many here will agree are two basic, but essential tools to help save steps.

                                            I think I may try to make one. am I allowed? I'm going to make one for Curviloft.
                                            Oh, and tip: if you didn't buy the fancy apps some of the others use, here are some free alternatives:
                                            VirtualDub.
                                            if your recorder can't save as GIF, you can use VirtualDub to do that (make sure you set the framerate correctly (like 10FPS) else the GIF will be extremely large. It also helps to Save it with an mpeg codec before exporting)
                                            CamStudio.
                                            A free Video recorder with autopan, screen record settings, codec settings, and the ability to record and playback at any framerate
