Show Me Your SketchUp

[Gaieus]

I changed the topic to a global announcement for a while.
John, you (and all the SU Team) can also post "local" and "global" announcements and stickies. Feel free to use this "superpower" any time you want to post something like this...

What are the FT & IN icons?

It's later than you think or maybe i waste landscape.
Feet
Inches

Lol
I gather that much.
I meant
What do they do?

Edit(reason being, I'll often switch units between architectural and fractional inches. Was wondering if theicons work aling those lines?)

Similar, other icons in Toggle Units plugin do what you do

Hoppefully I have a new monitor after some time with a 15"
order of the tool bar is never the same due excentricity of the every start of SU!

and while we're discussing it, can you do something about the 4th wall above sketchup in monitor layouts? none of the toolbars or windows will go above sketchup into another monitor, only to the sides.

Michael, you have many toolbars I have never seen before.

[Slimdog]

Its interesting to see how many people have the standard large tool set docked in the same place. I am kinda shocked to see the layers pallet closed on most peoples. I have entity info and layers open all the time.

Here's mine. I try to organize toolbars by groupings. Drawing plugins together, mesh manipulation plugins together, render plugins together, etc. Since they tend to get scrambled so often, it's easier to remember the layout.

ok, here is mine. I use 2 monitorsat work. I keep all floating windows on my 2nd monitor.

Like Gaieus I also use Sizer to get exact proportions to my SU window because I need to match image exports fairly often. My toolbars change a lot. I turn them on and off all the time. I uninstall plugins very often by moving them out of the plugins folder. Then put them back later when I need them again. I use my SU UI very dynamically, it would be awesome if it was built to be more flexible naturally instead of having to sort of run the show manually.

Thanks for starting this thread John,

Chris

[Chris Fullmer]

oh yeah, and my current plugins I have installed.

Ditto. I have many disabled toolbars and even disabled plugins which I use less frequently. Despite the very important and useful improvements with toolbar restore and such, I would also love to see some further development here.

I love the simplicity of the SU toolset and like to focus on getting the best out it by not having a cluttered workspace. Had that on previous softs. I also run very few plugins...

KISS....Keep it simple Silly....I can't stand more than one row of Icons. I rarely have the floating dialog items up unless I need them. And then as soon as I no longer need them they get closed. I'm all about screen real estate and I want the work area to be the biggest possible area.

Screen Resolution 1920x1200

I'm not an intensive user - a lot of terrain work, and measuring. Some point cloud and DXF/DWG import export for survey details, and some rendering. I use specifiic plugins (Put on Layer, Pipe along path, co-ords tag, points cloud) extensively.<p>
