          very nice! i had created a whole set of 2D dynamic components to do the walls, ceilings, doors, windows, etc sectionals. i'll definitely post some feedback.

              tomot, nice clean set of Working Drawings. I look forward to trying out that ruby for sections. gullfo, I look forward experiencing your 2d dynamic components.
              I just am finishing my 4th set of Working drawings... still alot to learn though, but I am enjoying doing them in SU/LO.

                thanks a lot, although wood framed houses are virtually non existant in my country.

                  If you do working drawings, and have an idea for a wall section for construction in your country, I'm happy to have have look at your idea, email me!

                  cheers!

                    I've always loved this plugin for construction drawings.
                    Any updates or further developments? Works oddly in 2014.

                      Why do I keep getting this message:

                        your profile says your on v8, but the error says your on v2014?

                        did you just copy it across?

                        this plugin requires another v8 plugin, called 'linetool.rb' that was part of the old google ruby example scripts...

                        your message says Error: #<LoadError: cannot load such file -- examples/linetool.rb>

                        both will need updating for v2014...

                        learn from the mistakes of others, you may not live long enough to make them all yourself...

                          Yes I'm using su2014. I installed the 2D Wall Section Tool v1.1 from the pluginstore and i also installed the Example Ruby Scripts from the extentions warehouse but i keep getting the error. Im assuming i installed updated version of both.
                          Only thing I can think of is that when i install the example ruby scripts, it places a su_examples folder and a su_examples.rb in sketchup 2014 plugin folder. I thought of deleting the su_ from the name but I really know nothing about thses things

                            somewhere in the scripts for this plugin will be require 'examples/linetool.rb'...
                            adding the su_ prefix to that may work...
                            i.e. require 'su_examples/linetool.rb'...

                                Here's the full fix to make this plugin work in v2015...

                                Install the su_examples.rb file from EW.
                                You can deactivate its Extension, because this plugin will require the linetool.rb from the subfolder as it needs it...

                                Use Notepad++ [or a similar plain-text editor] to edit the plugin's file 2dSectionTool-1.rb - as follows, about line #24...

                                ` require 'sketchup.rb'
                                $exStrings = LanguageHandler.new("examples.strings") unless $exStrings
                                require '**su_**examples/linetool.rb'

                                class TwoDSectionTool < **Sketchup::Examples::**LineTool`

                                The bold text shows the additions/insertions...
                                The $exStrings is set up here because it might not get set early enough otherwise, and generate a load-error.
                                In the newer "examples", the examples subfolder is now prefixed with su_, so correct that path.
                                The LineTool is now a class defined within the Examples module, which in turn is within the Sketchup module - so its 'full path' needs defining.

                                Save the changes to the file and restart SketchUp...

                                This fix will work - although the plugin itself is somewhat clunky and it ill-advisedly uses global-variables etc; and the bald reuse of the linetool is not used as the examples file intended !
