Show Me Your SketchUp
-
This thread just saved my neck. I picked up some virus yesterday...an XP/Vista scam that performs a phony scan of your system and throws up all manner of dire warnings, with the inevitable invitation to purchase some useless piece of crap to clear up the mess. Didn't fall for that, but it nevertheless made such a mess of my system that it tipped the balance into me deciding to do a 'factory-fresh' reload.
Wouldn't you know it?...the only thing I didn't back up was the Plugins folder...thought I had, but hadn't. I can't tell you how much easier it is to get set up again when you've got a handy list of every script you had installed...and a pretty picture to show where they all fitted around the drawing window....just import the jpg and paint by numbers.

The other day I also got something like that. It wasn't so serious though but I can imagine setting up SU again!

...... looks like two potential Mac buyers
-
Aaahh!! You said the 'M' word. Now I'll have to go outside, turn around three times and spit.
-
Come on Alan ..... you know DEEP DOWN that you are REALLY a MAC PERSON. Anyone knowing your work would naturally assume this! Is that enough 'winding up' for today? -
I want to customize my tool bar and I would like to know how can I put the menu icons on more than one line.
Thanks

Resize the floating toolbar by dragging a corner until it's the proportion/shape you want and redock it, it will keep the buttons in two lines or whatever you have set - the user has full control over a toolbar's details - from it being all in one row to it being all in one column ??? -

This is my work set up. I have a two monitor setup only at work. I only have a single at home. Its difficult to try to replicate my system at home because of lack space. I have two different sized monitors shown. My CAD program likes to work with the left monitor as the main monitor and it wants to use 2 (actually 1.5) screens so when I am using that along with Sketchup, it takes the place of the mountain background shown here. All I have to do is click in the window to shift to that software.
Thanks for all those at this site who have developed the plugins that I use. You are all life savers.
Although I can't wait for a ribbon menu or series of tabs for plugins to be perfected. Thanks for this thred.

Hi,
This is a great thread. There's all kinds of exotic plugins on show that I would love to know more about.
Here are my screenshots:

Cool, Here's mine. Been having fun with it.

bit late but here it is.

I use TGI3d a lot but it doesnt need toolbars. Also boolean,cleanup,etc plugins are missing here.
Screen size at workplace is 23inch *Isnt it awesome no one knows im playing with SU at work??
Screen size at home is 27inch. Perfect for SU.

I think I've seen such a thing in a movie once

Ditto today. Yesterday I installed something that messed up my SU so much that repair did not work and though I did not have top reinstall the whole system, I had to wipe out SU and reinstall it from scratch.
Now my toolbars are back thanks to the screenshot I made here.

BACK UP!!
Y'all need to be religious about that, pick a day like Sunday and have your system do a full (overwrite) backup to either a networked or external drive, trust me I learned the hard way and now I take backup's very seriously. Being a freelancer losing my full machine is like losing money.
-
You can back up your shortcuts, you can back up your plugins (and components and materials) folder(s) but you cannot back up your toolbar layout. Now that's what I had here.
-
well here are mine.
i prefer keyboard shortcuts.
as per one of my previous posts http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=79&t=29597#p259243, i seriously wish google would do something about the 1 character shortcut assignment limitation.
something more in line with autocad.
