Thx for the feedback...
Is there a function to the undo function to prevent
for the undo stack? Or a code snipped?The error is to be here, I can not find...

Merging undo stack items can be unpredictable to deal with. And both would cause the wrong name to appear in the Edit>Undo menu. I'd not recommend them.

Well sorry if I upset you but this manager is rather useless IMHO. Why?
Because your model is itself a manager of your 3d elements. And if you'd turn on "show the hidden geometry" mode you can easily select\unhide\view it's properties without any additional tables.Honestly this was an unnecessarily rude response. It may be useless to you, but may be of great use to others whose work process is different from yours.
I tend to hide some geometry to work on other items, being able to toggle a specific item into visibility without having to make all of them visible and the attendant slowdown of the program because of the huge overhead increase of all the sub geometry that also turns on when I show hidden geometry is a real boon.
So, thanks for an interesting and I think, quite useful plugin. Great first effort, would that I were able to be able to reciprocate with a plugin of my own. In any case thank you.
All the best and looking forward to your future efforts.

I'm sorry, but it works on my computer. I can find no error.
Perhaps the pathfunctions does not feature in Sketchup 7 !? -
Henry:
mx_hiddenmanager = SketchupExtension.new "Hidden Manager", File.join ("mx_hidemanager","mx_hidemanager.rbs")This can confuse Ruby - you have space after the method name and the brackets. (
File.join) On top of that you have that as one of the argument of another method call (SketchupExtension.new) where you don't use brackets.To avoid potential errors, always use brackets. But most important of all, never leave a space between the method name and the brackets.
It's a bit odd that a SU7 user should report this error, because SU8's ruby is more strict. Regardless, this should work:
mx_hiddenmanager = SketchupExtension.new( "Hidden Manager", File.join("mx_hidemanager","mx_hidemanager.rbs") ) -

What capability does this provide vs what the outliner has now?? -
nifty tool as your hidden elements are in one place. I can see the relevance.

No such file to load -- mx_hidemanager/mx_hidemanager.rbsSome of my users of the PieceTracer tool have reported the same mysterious "No such file to load" error, as you can see here:
http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=34492A couple of similarities between Hidden Manager and PieceTracer:
- Both have an underscore in both the directory name and the file name, as most plugins do not.
- Both load the scrambled ruby file directly out of the loader file instead of using a second unscrambled file inside the sub-directory that loads the scrambled file using a 'require' statement or similar, as many plugins do.
Could these similarities point to a solution to the problem? Could be worth creating a test version with these things fixed to see if that solves the loading problem for those users who have it.
-
I checked with my users and fixing #2 above fixed the problem. schorradt, just create a .rb file in your subdirectory with one line: "Sketchup::require " and then the name of your scrambled file. Then load that .rb file out of your loader file using SketchupExtension. That will fix the loading problem for your users who have it.

Thanks Evan. Good advice. I have the same issue, presumably a conflict with Piece Tracer. I'll see if I can do it manually until the author fixes the issue.
