[Plugin] Work Plane
-
Pilou it's a glitch... v1.8 is in the pipeline now...
-
Ok So wait an see
-
Adjusment selected is curious
Here Grid was 10 10 , with 1 1 then 10 10 , with 3 3
I understand that I have that asked (why there is not neat (3*3)
but
seems fill grid must be fully filled or red frame adjusted to 3 3 + rest(?)
Hole is perturbating
Not Delect selected?
And option Center first point(actual default) or Framed face will be a must(avoid to play with and unlock) -
TIG, the planar / perpendicular flip is great. Would it be terribly difficult to add rotating of work plane in 15 degree increments to the post adjustment options? If it's a PITA, don't worry about it.
BTW, I was looking through the code for this plugin and it's amazing the amount of thought and strategy that goes into each little feature. I really appreciate the work you are putting into this and all your plugin releases.

Here's v1.8 http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=274345#p274345
The 'Rounding' glitch with some Adjusted WorkPlanes Grids fixed.
All grids should now be centered on point-1 and the edge grids made smaller to suit if the plane's dim itself is not a multiple of the grid... -
Here's v1.9 http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=274345#p274345
A 'Rotate Selected' option has been added to the context-menu.
You can type in any angle in the dialog and the selected WorkPlane rotates about its axis [pt1>>pt2] by that angle... -
My 1.8 live only 10 minutes
I don't very well understand the interest of the first center point but as I can rescale all the plane no problem
I abuse but a Polar Grid will be also fine if you have some free times

tig, really thank you very much.
to hear any suggestions on this tool. thank you very much.
I found only one bug. does not draw the rectangle tool on inclined coplanar faces.I use sketchup8
Draw rectangle inclined coplanar workplane
versions work : 1.5 or lower
versions does not work : 1.6 or higher
-
Tig, you are so fast even you can't keep up with the versions as you make them!

You gave Susan a tophat? Classy!

yes. and if it works the other tools (circle, polygon, arch)
However,
if the geometry is generated as a group or component directly from ruby, SI can draw shapes on inclined planes.
if you later apply any modification to this geometry (move, scale, ungroup, etc. ..) this property is lost.Le adjunto imágenes de dos plugins que probé.

Diego, the "Rotated Rectangle" tool works well on sloped planes. (Even after it's been manipulated)
-
I had her out partying last night and she forgot to take it off! 
-
Little problem
Rotation from the context menu is not on the Coplanar plan of the Work plane (when this one is inclined)
it would have been too simple
-
you're right Diego, and that's quite a nasty one
-
The glitch where you can't align a 2pt-rectangle [or sometimes a circle] onto a sloping face if it's a group/component-instance and its plane doesn't pass through the origin and is not axial on the x_axis [
] is a known problem with both v7 and v8 - it's logged with them and hopefully a fix might appear in a maintenance release...
The problem isn't specific to this tool - it's general and is easily reproduced by making objects manually and trying to snap 2pt-rectangles to their sloping faces in different orientations... [however, a 3pt-rectangle will work OK as it's not 'built-in' and its code is in fact the starting point for my WorkPlane's tool itself]

also, you can move a group and still have it accept the rectangle tool IF you move it along the green axis.. it's a su glitch..look at this video for more weird behavior.. depending on the xy orientation, the rectangle may or may not work..
tig can probably fix this but it's gonna be him fighting the su bug instead of fixing a bug in his script..

..seems worse in su8

strange.
I have reported this error:

"Hi Diego:Thank you for your message and attach particular image capture.
We've been very helpful!Answering your question: the behavior you encountered is a
normal behavior.
Geometry within a group or component does not relate to the same
so
geometry itself.If you want to draw a rectangle, tilted in one of his drawings, you
suggest you draw the geometry and twist it to match the
plane. Another option is to do it without going to the group.I hope these tips have been helpful!

any programmer can tell google about this problem?
probably have more success than me.
