[Plugin] FullScreen v5.1.3 (25 April 2024)

Anton_S

@Rombout Currently this plugin is only workable on Windows. Mac OS X API is too different from Windows API. And I don't mean SketchUp Ruby API.

@Pherim Thanks for your report. I will get it fixed soon.

Okay thanks for answering, I've found a working solution now which hides all panels

hi @Anton_S,
the plugin dialog covered the trays in sketchup 2016. How to use the plugin correctly?

Anton_S

Left-click on the title bar of the settings dialog, hold the mouse button down, and drag it to any desired position on screen, where it doesn't intersect the other dialogs. You can also click on the x button to close it.

The plugin is crashing with this warning:

I had this working before on my SU16, but now after i updated it is crashing unfortunately

PS: I am on Win7Ult 64bit
Explorer V9

PS PS: I had a backup of the older working version which i copy pasted and now it works, but am scared to update!!!

Anton_S

Sarkarshomit, have you upgraded to AMS Library 3.3.0, besides just upgrading the Windows Settings plugin? Because if you haven't, then the AMS Timer error could be depicted due to an old version of AMS Library.

sarkarshomit

Yes Anton, updated today the libraries...still this error...

Just tested it on my Windows XP and Windows 10 64bit and it works fine. I really don't know what's wrong with yours. Perhaps you didn't overwrite all the files of AMS library. Try deleting an old version of ams_Lib and ams_Lib.rb from the "C:/Users/VD/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2016/SketchUp/Plugins/" folder. Then install the latest version of AMS Library.

Thanks for the trick, it worked fine...regards....

Bonjour Anton,
J'ai installé "ams_WindowsSettings", et il me semble que je rencontre un problème d'affichage de "la boîte de dialogue des paramètre" (voir capture d'écran ci-après).
2017-01-28 15_13_07-.png
Je suis sous "Windows 10 Famille v1607 64 bits", carte graphique "AMD Radeon R7 200 Series v16.6".
J'ai installé (puis désinstallé et réinstallé à nouveau "ams_Lib.rbz_v3.4.1" et "ams_WindowsSettings_v4.2.1".

Je joins également une capture d'écran des différents paramètres qui me sont accessibles depuis le menu "Fenêtre > Réglages"
Auriez-vous une réponse à ce problème?
D'avance merci.

Hello, bharralure,

My apologies for not responding any sooner. It has been a while since I downloaded a localized SketchUp version. I fixed the bug with localized dialog. Please upgrade to version 4.2.2. Thanks for reporting.

Regards,
Anton

bharralure

Bonjour Anton,
Je viens d'installer la version 4.2.2 qui semble fonctionner parfaitement.
De plus, "cerise sur le gâteau" (expression Français qui, j'espère, sera traduite correctement par Google), la fenêtre est en Français.
Merci Anton pour cette mise à jour efficace.

Thanks for the report, Perroloco. I will fix that soon. By the way, if the Spanish translations are improper, because I used Google translate for them, you can modify the translations for the commands_es.strings and window_settings_es.html, located in ../ams_WindowSettings/lang folder and send me a PM with the two new files so that I could merge them into the plugin.

Anton_S

Alright, Perroloco, it's fixed now. Please upgrade to version 4.2.3.

perroloco2000

THANKS ANTON!!!
Everything is working perfect now!
For a google translation is really well done. I would only change "Contenedores de barra" for "Barra de herramientas".
Glad I could help you also (tiny help je je). And thanks for your quick reply.
Keep up the good work!

how to change language it's not possible

Hi Anton

A very nice plugin. It's very satisfying working in full screen with no distracting menu bars

When i first saw the settings menu, I thought that I could select the Mode, and then set settings for this mode, and then select an other mode, and then select settings for this mode. But that seems not to be the case - but i might have misunderstood the use of the plugin.

What I was looking for, was to be able to switch to full screen mode using F11, and then I would not see anything, just a blank clean, non disturbing work screen, then when I press F11, I should come back to a "normal" screen where I can access the different menus, if needed.

Could that setup be possible with this plugin?

Thanks
Jorgensen

Anton_S

Hi Jorgensen,

There are "Save", "Retain", and "Reset" options, which are almost exactly what you're looking for. Here is how to utilize them:

Assign an F11 hotkey to (Menu) Window Settings -> Retain command.
Assign an F12 hotkey to (Menu) Window Settings -> Reset command.
Use WindowSettings UI to hide all the elements you would want hidden in fullscreen mode.
Click on the Save button and close the UI
Use F11 and F12 keys to toggle between fullscreen mode.

I know that you are looking for a single hotkey to do both, so that's a good request.

Anton

Jorgensen

Thanks Anton

Just what I was looking for. Not sure what happens, but it works.

And it's not a problem using two keys.
