JVT_LTD

Hi,JVT_LTD.
It is very useful suggestion.
I will add the depth text under the section drawing.

Hi,lubessy.
I can not see your state of sketchup.
So,please upload or send your file include that problem.

Thanks.

@tak2hata

Hi,
I update this plugin,and version become 1.3 in Dec 16,2012.

The text about distance of section plane is placed in left bottom of the drawing.

And "About This" was added in menu.
Version information will be shown there.

Thanks.

Nice one...

I don't know if I'm the only one experiencing this, the text about distance of section plane is placed in left bottom of the drawing does not appeared? after giving the section name the process is same as old version

What I did is replacing the old .rb files...

tak2hata

Hi,JVT_LTD.
You may overwrite this.rb file on already exists rb file.
Restart your sketchup after the current version is installed.
"About This" is added in create section drawing menu.
Please watch this video.

Thanks for such a nice video tuts...

But I don't know if its possible to your plugin? what I would like to suggest? See attached below...

My suggestion is ... After giving ComponentName, if possible, if you could include another process where you could add Distance(D=?)such as Section Plane as starting/origin point then by applying a certain Distance (D=?)and it will be the end point, the result will be like see attached below, in dwf and skp format as your plugin did.

Well this is just a suggestion of mine, you may or you may not include it, but the potential of your plugin is truly amazing if you could include this kind of process...

Again thank you & looking forward to your plugin...

Hi,JVT_LTD.

It is difficult for me.

And It will take too very long time to calculate the projection by script.

Thanks.

Hi tak2hata,

Hi,chooyod.
The Group named "BST_BASELINES" will become BST-Baselines group.
Lines/Clines in that group will be drawn as the baseline in section drawing.
Notice: Allcharacters of "BST_BASELINES" are written in capital letters.

Hi this problem

Error: #<Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - C:/Users/fatiheker/Desktop/Yeni klasör/DrawingSection>

@Faith

The 'Yeni klasör' is the culprit.
SketchUp's Ruby on PCs can't cope with non ASCII characters in file-/folder-names and file-paths - so do not use accented letters etc!
Try renaming that folder 'Yeni klasoer' or 'Yeni klasor'...
It should then work...

Hi,TIG.
Thanks for your advice!

That is the problem of ruby in sketchup.

Hi,Fatih.
Please refer to that advice!

Thanks.

Hi,luqmanue.

Does it means this plugin menu disappear in "plugins" menu?
or Menu bar disappear?
This tool has no toolbar.

Did you watch the tutorial video on top of this thread?

Please place the section plane in sketchup.
Select it, and show pulldown menu from right click.
You can find the command "Section Drawing".

Or not select section plane ,and Select command from "Section Drawing" in "plugins" menu.
Thanks.
