Incidentally I have found that the one script that tips we over the edge is thomthom's selection_toys ad that adds dozens of new commands under three submenus in the context-menu. If I stop this loading I get no gray-outs

It does add a few Command objects - but it's not leaking them. (I've checked.)
However, it does appear that SketchUp has a limit to Command objects regardless - so if you have many plugins installed you may experience greyed out menus.
If you load just Selection Toys it does not grey out. If you remove a few other plugins you'll not get the grey outs. The only thing is that Selection Toys adds a few items which fills up the limit more than others. -

I wasn't suggesting that your tool was faulty - it just adds lots of commands that use up the available 'slots'.
It would be good if Google could resolve this issue as we are currently hitting a wall with the number of plugins we can load at once if they have commands set ?
You don't need commands to have an item display in the context-menu, unlike a toolbar that has to have a command, but a command does allow 'validation_proc' etc... BUT if you disable selection_toys in the context-menu it still tips the commands over the limit and grays-out - it seems it's the commands total not the number used in the context-menu itself! The only way is to stop it is to stop it loading completely - OR if I want its functionality then I need stop some other tools loading that make numerous commands themselves. Which brings us back to this thread - these tools will cause gray-outs if you have many commands getting made by tools, so one way to temporarily disable some - selection_tools is a soft target as you can remove many commands with one disablement!
It's a pity we can't dynamically load/unload commands without restarting Sketchup... -
Yea - the design of Selection Toys UI manager is troublesome with the current Command limitations. For version 3 it'll be completely different, but that's not an update that'll be coming in the immediate future.

Does anyone have a "Rosetta Stone" to convert these codes into USA codes?

[attachment=0:1inpg13m]<!-- ia0 -->building_structure_tool.zip<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:1inpg13m]very efficient
a limitation, though, that makes it useless when you have to draw steel beams that are not parallel to the global axis
changing to a provisional axis system doesn't help
in addition to girder, beam, column, which a re horizontal or vertical, ... would it be possible to draw a structural member in any direction?
-
a very big thanks for the plugin!
