Thanks Chris!
...and ditto Ecuadorian's post.

I've been thinking about that. As of right now, I am not selling any of my scripts (in time that will change). But for now, I might implement a paypal link.
I also really want to add a link to my all my plugins page, and also a link to my YouTube channel where I'll be uploading all my video tutorials from now on. I want people who download these to have quicker access to the video tutorials I make for my scripts.
So plan on seeing a few items like that being added to my plugins folder eventually.

Would it be possible to have each component connect to the beginning of each line segment, but not scale. So the very next component would start before the first one ended. This would make it easier to make chain links to interconnect.
However, thanks for all you great plugins.

The link you put is the link to download clf-component-stringer.rb.
I guess you are talking about this Chris Fullmer plugin' page
which is very useful.!! (And easy to reproduce for each author of this place)

Oh, you are right. I had put the wrong link. It is fixed now, thanks Simon.

Hey Chris,
Another awesome script. Thanks very much! I agree that you are at a point now where you could charge for your scripts but I also understand that you need to be comfortable doing that. I will gladly support you when you do. I have bought SOME scripts and I hardly use them, yet. It's obvious that you enjoy writing them and knowing others appreciate it definitely must help. How about you set up that PayPal and let people donate as they download. I'm not sure how long it takes to write these but I'm sure you have quite a few hours put into it so far. Anyway, keep up the great work! Your a good guy Chris!
Cheers,
Jeff

very cool and powerful.
thank you, Chris.
-
first attempt....! Thanks Chris.
-
crazy
nice one chris! -
Thanks! I am sure meny will find this usefull. There is still some extra steps needed to make a chain... I wonder how soon some will make working SP roller chain with this
-
couple more....

And thus SketchUp became the easiest way to design a roller coaster.

Right click > Reset scale. You have to do this for each instance. There must be a "mass reset scale" script somewhere. EDIT: It seems there isn't. Make sure to set a keyboard shortcut for "reset scale" so you can do this quickly.
Hey, Jeff, how about something like this?
-
Wow!....did you draw that? Have you tried the script yet or is that your first try with it?
-
It's a photo, Jeff. This is a famous house by Spanish architect Antoni Gaudí. I'm just suggesting that this script will now make this kind of crazy things possible in SketchUp.But I know you were just kidding.

Very cool plugin that ultimately should be very useful, for architectural modeling not just necklaces. Thank you Chris.
We have something like this in our CAD program. Some of the different things that CAD feature does is: place objects contiguously or at a user-set spacing, stretch/shrink and bend objects objects or not. rotate objects or not, rotate randomly, fill the length of a path with various "fudge" settings (gives different number/spacing of objects within path), offset objects from path. Just some options to think of possibilities.
-
Suggestion : a little rotation between each components?
Ah damned that was yet in the Todo list
So this one : change colors between each components (or according with the segment)PS We are listening crickets or cicida during the video plug
-
I was gonna ask about the crickets too. Must have been a late night thought process that had to get you up and working.
-
Blows me away, Chris. What was the inspiration?

Click Draw
How did you get the components to overlap? Seems to me, what ever you did could be used to make an anchor chain.
Thanks in advance.
