        Function one makes bigger documents
        Function two makes smaller documents

        When you start sketchup it dosn't ea time start in the same amount of time. This menu help to get sketchup an another plugin to shake hands for their functional opperations.

        Another Sketchup Plus when or not in use can be turn on or off by extension pannel

                    KISS... ("keep it simple, sir" approach)
                    I basically need only 2 options:

                    move select
                    select all exit
                    ok

                    I guess it will be the same for some other sketchup users...

                    Yes, the messagebox has been removed; it is much more convenient, at least for me
                    thank you

                    Thanks dukejazz, it's very usefull plugin,

                    btw, I am using dj_another_sketchup Ver. 1.2a KISS options now, but how to make the toolbar appearing again like when I'm using Another Sketchup ver 1.2?
                    I'm no see it in View > Toolbar

                    dukejazz
                    I turn on toolbars put pound sign in front, like this #=begin and #=end below in this file loader
                    Plugins\dj_another_sketchup\Another_Sketchup_Plus_loader.rb

                    Its now a new update
                    Another Sketchup plus ver 1.2a (toolbar ver)

                      james,

                      you plugin seems to be very useful but it lacks a video that illustrates clearly what it can do. I have some difficulty myself to grasp all it offers. some kind of general explanation of all its features would be of benefit to all members.

                        I still need to make a demo movie

                        I fix the box problem, no more message need.

                        I move the Hints: by dukejazz in the making of Another to here

                        Hints:
                        Some Sketchup noted Hints: by dukejazz in the making of Another Sketchup Plus Ver. 1.2

                        1 You can manually (flush a clipboard) of entities clean: By Using 3d text tool and copy a leter of text Then [cancel] out.
                        2 Another Sketchup plus has a (auto clearing clipboard) useing a shortcut Cmd.link script to clear clipboard. I tried to make a ruby API script but failed. Cmd.link clean better than the manual way.
                        3 (Security reasons): Flush clipboard when you leave your work area.[Clear Exit]
                        4 (Never loose a documents) Make use of making copies of your document in your brower.
                        5 (Smart) Open brower's copies to rework on keeps you from saving back to original.
                        6 (Limits gray-out) Keep startup and console loaded plug-ins to small and few.
                        7 (Keeps Skp file size small) In model, components and materials: uses (Via) Save and purge.
                        8 (Watch memory flow:) Task manager: It is normal for parents overhead memory to be larger than a child.
                        9 (Large doc gray-outs) Open a new parent copy of the document to paste back into it, because of larger overhead of note 8.
                        10 (Max File save size) Max file size is by power of zoom extents, and by zoom in/out decreases the save size?
                        11 (Polyreduce if you can) Overworking objects gives higher code counts. Keep objects hollow. Delete unused or unneed lines.
                        12 (Bug splats) Keep register clean. Delete extra ToolbarsUser-Bars and ToolbarsUserCustom-Bars, If you get to 1000 it will splats on you, also it will take away loaded memory space too.(slows runway Bug splats)
                        HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\SketchUp8.
                        a (Find) ToolbarsUser-Summary and ToolbarsUserCustom-Summary.
                        b (via) Right-click_ permission special _ to you full control on and you read off. This (Locks) Toolbars to fix num ToolbarsUser_limits overloading your registers.
                        13 (No need to load rbs at start up} By using a Sketchup::require statement, in a rb, you can loads a rbs scrip to the ruby console.
                        14 Fix your start up rbs code to zero by via note 13. Another Sketchup Plus Ver. 1.2 will run as a ruby console script a

                              My outline of my movie to come and the plugin another sketchup plus functionality:

                              What is this plugin about, its a

                              Project platform Editor: ( with plugins management and pasting tools )

                              • Auto loads another sketchup with clipboard information.... Gives easy power functionality actions, to the editing of sketchup models, objects, or entities;... The objects can be pull out to a child sketchup and return back to illustrations detail to main project when done.

                              -Help the loading of ruby scripts plug-ins. With ruby repeater installer, you can load plug-in scripts from main pulgin ... when you need them, ..... This gives you more than a 1000's chose's to choose from.

                              -You can also reinstall plug-ins (in and out with hide/unhide method) by the brower .... then sending all objects to another sketchup will flushes all ruby in console out when new child sketchup starts......now you can do more ..... and manage gray outs memory limits.

                              • Pasting tools I provide here are these paste in place, Duplicate, repaste, cpoint axes and clipboard cleaner

                                  EditInPlace is a Google SketchUp plugin that lets you edit (modify) components and groups in a separate Google SketchUp instance.

                                  EditInPlace overcomes one of Google SketchUp's biggest limitations - the clipping plane which prevents you from effectively editing small components in large models. It is a time saver for SU Podium users who need to add properties to materials that are hard to find in large models.

                                  5 tips about running more than one sketchup

                                  Tip 1) Run and do more with sketchup
                                  You can run more than one sketchup programs at the same time.
                                  Just hit your shortcut key twice and find out.

                                  Tip 2) Cut and paste or paste in place
                                  a) You can cut and past between between same levels of sketchup programs. 8-8 7-7 6-6
                                  b) There are some copy programs that can copy many levels of copys with sketchup (25 level+ or more) M8 Free Multi Clipboard: Free Clip, Spartan Trial Upgrade

                                  Tip 3) Use each sketchup for different task
                                  Use one for laying out and other for creating the object.

                                  Tip 4) Toolbars behavior
                                  a) Remembers the last program exited is how the toolbars will look when you restart.
                                  b) Common view can be saved by saving view - toolbar - saving toolbar positions.

                                  Tip 5) Can use more plug-ins folders
                                  a) By copying sketckup 8 to another location, you can load more plugins.
                                  b) Also a empty plug-in folder is a great viewer
                                  c) For zone testing for new downloaded plug-ins

                                  (hint)
                                  a) When copy is completed, make a new shortcut (sketchup2) to new sketchup.exe.
                                  b) Load new plugins with a ruby toolbar.
                                  c) Clean your registers, when needed.

                                  All of this will help to over come the overloading of gray outs and bug splat.

                                    I'm off on holiday for a couple of weeks, sorry. Maybe when I return. The latest info tells me more about how your plugin works I understand a bit more. You really need to do a video to get a full understanding.

                                          I have absolutely no idea what this does. I've read through the thread and I'm not understanding 90% of what you are writing about.

                                          From what I gather it can copy or move a part of a model to a new instance of SU then bring it back. But there seems to be another set of options that are not explained clearly to me.

                                            Rich It's not really a full other instance of SU it's like a window, a small sketchUp for working on a certain part of the model.
