Toolbar Customisation
-
Hi there, new to the forum, not to SketchUp. Thought I’d dip my toe in.....
First thing, love SU, it’s transformed my architectural world. However, the one thing that's always bugged me about SU is the almost total lack of customisation within the UI. Having come from the (ahem) bloated world of AutoCAD many moons back I’d become used to the almost endless, although often over complicated, flexibility within the UI (it has to have at least one saving grace). SU has so many awesome plugins that have transformed the way I work and design. Thing is, with every one of these plugins there are commands on the associated toolbars which I never use and would love to remove to free up valuable screen real estate. Strange that the option is there within Macs to do this but not PC's. I'm guessing this flexibility is possibly inherit within the Mac OS.
I’ve searched endlessly for a solution and found Jim’s Toolbar, which is superb, but it doesn’t allow customisation of any of the other toolbars that I'd like. Then I stumbled upon PowerSuTool organiser which seems to do what I’d like but I can find almost zero in the way of feedback on it. OK, there’s the language issue, but from the outside this looks like giving the ultimate toolbar/icon flexibility which I know a lot of users are searching for. Has anyone used this plugin? Is there anything else out there I've missed or possibly in development?

+1 on UI additions
SKP should implement workspaces that can be saved. I've managed by using my second monitor as a 'junkyard' of plugins and dialogue boxes, however they never save their locations, which has always caused me to waste time rearranging on every startup.
