hahaha... not at all mister, this is a beast which should last plenty (unless you jinx it!)

CadFather

only strange thing i found, the green settings window always pops up on start, even if i uncheck the option. not sure it's supposed to be that way.

It shouldn't show up if you uncheck the "Show on Start" option. I tested it on my Windows 7, SU8, 13, 14, and 15 64bit. Can you give give me your system background, such as OS and SU version?

CadFather

ok, so that's strange, it happens on all my versions (8, 2014, 2015-x64).

i guess you may want to wait if anyone else has the same problem while i investigate further for conflicts etc. win7 64bit.

Thanks Anton

Hmm...
I think swo_on_quit observer from the new AMS library doesn't work properly. I will look into it. Just to ensure that other observers work, I would like you to do a simple test:

Open Window Settings dialog, and use the menu bar option (Menu)Window > Settings > Full Screen to switch SU full screen. See if the dialog updates its radio-button mode.
Another test, maximize and restore your SketchUp window using the maximize button on the upper right corner of the window. See if the dialog updates its radio-button mode.

If the dialog doesn't updates, then there is a problem with the whole observing system in my new library; otherwise, it's just this swo_on_quit observer not working for some...

I would appreciate your tests,
Thanks

CadFather

ok, on all tests the radio buttons update properly. this with 2015x64

Anton_S

Phew! It's just the swo_on_quit observer method that doesn't work on all systems. I will investigate.

CadFather

phew!

Anton_S

I think I know why it isn't working. Basically, when you close the dialog, by default the dialog unregisters the observer, which prevents the swo_on_quit observer method from being triggered. But, just to ensure the swo_on_quit is working, paste and submit this code into ruby console and quit SketchUp. This should show the 'Works!' message box.

class AMSObserverTest; def swo_on_quit; UI.messagebox('Works!'); end; end; AMS;;Sketchup.add_observer(AMSObserverTest.new)

CadFather

exactly as you described it - i got a 'works!' button as i quit SU.

(on reopening i still got the green bar)

Anton_S

Ghurait! Try the new version!

(The test you did was meant to check AMS Library observer, which had nothing to do with changing how AMS Window Settings 4.0.0 worked.)

CadFather

yeeeeaaa! fantastic Master Anton, works ghurait now!

ams window dialog stuck.jpg Hi Anton
The settings dialog icon from your plugin tries to open the SU program dialog for an instant but closes and just opens your settings.
No way to move to another monitor or make floating.
just a fixed location per my screen clip.
(Your settings is grayed out by screen capture software)

SU 2015 pro

This is a must have script and thanks thanks thanks.
A fix would sure be appreciated

I removed the pick and drag feature, just cause I thought upper-right corner of the view was the best location for the dialog. I might re-add it in the next release.

It looks like my plugin tries create a new dialog, but in fact, that's the same dialog with border and caption removed. I will make it do such procedure faster, so it's done before the dialog is set visible.

The pick-and-drag gang will beg
Thanks

Hi Anton
The border and caption (SU)will be needed to drag the plugin.
Also to locate the plugin on another screen.
Thanks

I won't add the border and caption, cause I think the widows frame doesn't look so good, but I will make the green heading draggable and clippable...

Hi Anton
Good news to be able to drag.
Will it lock to other SU captions ?
Very handy to set a typ screen org for templates.
Here is how I use them in any case.
(in line here)
SU Window Settings is on screen #2
Your plugin should have been part of SU from the very beginning.
Thanks for getting back too.

Added pick, drag and clip feature to the new dialog.
Made borders hide faster.
Added localization to dialog.

Click on green caption to drag the dialog, easy as that...
