btw, a4chitect: why do you have to doubleclick? Why not normal click like the regular PP?
I thought the same thing, TT.

Hi ar4itect I think your 'to do' list misses multiple adjasent\non adjacent faces push-pull.
It'd be special case of Fredo's JPP. BTW While ago I asked him to implement it but unfortunatly it didn't happen. -
oh, and to make it the almighty super tool, you could enalbe push/pull of more than one selected face simulaneously, making it a lot faster to do extrude several faces with the sam distance (something that I always wanted the push/pull tool to be capable of)

a4chitect,
very usefull ruby, well done !
For me the possibilty to control the offset by means of the VCB is the one thing that is missing to make it a true replacement for the 'standard' push pull tool. (But it is already in the to do list !!
)
Thanks for sharing,

okay . .this is total awesomenicity. Any possible way it could be written to be accessed from a right-click like JPP? That would just be cherry.

Yeee! Thanks a lot for this plugin

Fantastic tool. I've been wishing for something like this for a while.
Nice job, I'm looking forward to any improvements you make.

Simply just a WOW
Thank youdtr

Very nice,
I noticed the original lines remain, hahe you though of using smething like "remove cplanar edges" to eliminate thos elines after the push/pull operation?
Great job anyways! -
...very usefull!
thank you!:) -

Great job anyways!I like that idea, CADAddict!
Maybe something similar to the standard Pushpull with 'Ctrl' Pushpull leaving original face and edges....What do you think a4chitect?
-
i think you are talking about thd first entry in the todo list in the first post; such feature is planned.
-
Tricky!

Great and useful Plugin!
I've got a few more to do's:
- What makes sketchup a great and fast program to use, is mainly the easy inferencing!
As with the regular push-pull tool, you should be able to indicate exactly where the pulled plane will arrive to. The pulled plane should stick to existing lines/points which may intersect with it.
[right now, I've noticed it only sticks if I start pulling the plain from a point (which is very difficult to determine if it's sticking or not) which is on a line (perpendicular to the pulled plain) which reaches the point I want to get to... (I imagine that's isn't very clear, I can add an image if needed) ]
-
If two, or more of the side planes merge into a single point or a single line, it ought to stick there too.
geometrically that would happen when one any one of the side planes gets to n-1 edges. -
when using the VCB - entering a number, pressing enter, and then entering another number, should act like other sketchup tools. It should act as though you're still pulling the same plane once. currently it keeps making more and more faces.
-
when pressing TAB WHILE using the tool - at times it's like double clicking, other times it repeats the last doubleclick... behavior inconsistent and confusing. It should just change the behaviour without committing any changes.
I would have loved to help solve these issues myself, but scripting is Chinese to me...

I forgot to mention a very important detail.
I was testing the script on Mac OSX with sketchup 7.0! so all the points above relate to sketchup on OSX.testing it on a PC with sketchup 7.1 returned very nice results! Though points 2 and 3 above are still problematic.
