[Plugin] Layer manager
-
Can I save more than one layer state. I am asked what layer state I want to over right when I try to save a new layer state. I do not get an option not to over right a layer state.
Nice tools.

@seasdes:
Yes, you can save as many layer states as you want.
Try to overwrite any of your previously saved layer state and see if it is still there.
I guess this is a bug but the layer state you overwrite will not be overwritten.

Ken,
I'm not sure if this has been answered, I didn't read the entire thread, but have you gone to View> Toolbars> Save Toolbar Positions before you install? I used to have a similar problem, but once I save a toolbar position set up all I have to do is run through the process of View> Toolbars> Restore Toolbar Positions, and I'm good to go. Have you tried that? Or does this particular plugin just kill any saved toolbar locations when its installed?
Just curious, and I hope that helps!

Mr. Bur
Thanks for you very useful script.
Just a side note, installation of your script has re-arranged all my toolbars. This is nothing new, it happens with every script installation that adds a new toolbar. So I have to re-arrange the menus, and usually they are not in the same order, and another learning curve is required.
But this time, I have outwitted this darn re-organizational mess. I took a JPG screen snap shot of the toolbars before installation. Imported this JPG into a Sketchup model and saved the model as SketchupToolbars. So now I just load this program and re-arrange all the tools bars as the JPG indicates. Now no new learning curve.
Mr. Bur again thanks for the script.

Thanks, Didier Bur...!!!

Is it also possible to group layers into groups/folders? Just like in Photoshop?

@Maxvector9
No, AFAIK

Hi Didier, this is one of my most used plugins, many thanks!
I'm wondering if you could add a dialogue box pop up option for the second icon,'Set Layer of clicked object current and isolated' to turn off all layers 'EXCEPT LAYER 0'?
I almost never change current layer from Layer 0 as I have been courtout before drawing geometry on another layer rather than 0.Is this possible?

Many thanks,

Hi utiler,
Attached RBS will do it. Unzip and overwrite your layer_manager.rbs file in your Layer Manager folder. That's it, enjoy !

Thank you Didier, very much appreciated!

Thanks

Is this plugin compatible with 2014? It's one of my favorites!
-
It should be.
Try it...
Are you on MAC ?
I think the MAC version is more 'beta-like' ? -
Tooltips for toolbar icons on hover ?!
I am new to this plugin and am having trouble remembering what each icon is supposed to represent.
Does this plugin show tooltips on hover? and if so I am wondering why I can't see any.Great plugin and thanks for sharing

Extremely useful extension, THANK YOU.
For the next update, please have a look at the Show/Isolate/Hide... layer-by-Filter. I have "Existing filters:' from prior actions but when selection one of them from the drop-down box, it doesn't populate the "Filter string to * layers" entry at the bottom of the window. I have to re-type the filter string each time. Can't use the prior Existing filters.
I'm using SketchUp Make 2016 for compatibility with my PCs.
Thanks.
