Webdialogs: inputbox shows black background (sketchup webkit
-
You could carefully "alias" the WebDialog class in SketchUp, that means you add a script that is loaded first where you redefine the UI::WebDialog.open method so that it injects your JavaScript after the WebDialog has opened. Maybe like (untested):
class UI;;WebDialog # this gives a new name to the method "show" alias ;show_orig ;show private ;show_orig def show(&proc) # this calls the original "show" method show_orig(&proc){ proc.call } execute_script(" /*your script*/ ") end end
However re-defining base classes is something that no published plugin should do.

I found the same problem last week. The source of the problem is the Safari update that Apple pushed out last week (5.1.7). Here's a work-around for dynamic components: make the following edits in red to the manager.css and configurator.css files. (located in Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Tools/Dynamic Components/css)
In Manager.css:
.edit-field {
position: absolute;
border-top: 2px solid #3063C9;
border-left: 2px solid #3063C9;
border-right: 2px solid #A5C4FF;
border-bottom: 2px solid #A5C4FF;
background-color: white; font-size: 12px;
font-family: sans-serif;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
padding-left: 2px;
padding-top: 1px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
}In Configurator.css:
.config-field {
width: 100%;
font-size: 11px;
font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;
height: 22px;
background-color: white;
border: 1px solid #000000;
}.config-field-readonly {
width: 100%;
font-size: 11px;
font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;
height: 22px;
background-color: threedface;
border: 1px solid #000000;
}Thank you!! this worked for me!!!

Thanks guys!
I managed to get all the dialog boxes of 1001bit fixed following the suggestions on the css;[attachment=0:1pgsvrh4]<!-- ia0 -->black_textbox_patch.jpg<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:1pgsvrh4]
It's a lot of work to edit all the html files, but at least the problem is solved.
Cheers!what files exactly did you modify?

To avoid any confusion over installation of the script, I created this guide:
-
Download SIMBL
-
Unzip the file
-
Launch the SIMBL-..*.pkg installer
-
Download GreaseKit
-
Mount the GreaseKit-..dmg image
-
Copy GreaseKit.bundle to /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/
-
Launch Safari
-
Select the GreaseKit item in the menubar
-
Select Manage Applications...
-
Add Sketchup to the application list
-
Quit Safari
-
Download inputPatch.user.js created by driven (his original post)
-
Copy inputPatch.user.js to **~/**Library/Application Support/GreaseKit/
-
Launch SketchUp
-
Select inputPatch from the GreaseKit menu
Your text boxes are now white!

hi Phaseone,
Welcome to SCF and thanks for the guide on how to instal my GreaseKit solution.It made me revisit the issue and I realise now that there is an even easier way to do this. [i.e. without SIMBL, GreaseKit or js injection]

@unknownuser said:Another idea, would a WebView also accept a user stylesheet (that would override the default background in all websites+webdialogs in SketchUp)?
Yes, Safari does it from the preference menu and I now have it working in SU, but what's the simplest way to share the 'how to'.
First you need a css file containing the patch code, in a place SU can find. So copy paste this into Ruby Console and hit return.
directory='/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins/__InputPatch/' Dir;;mkdir(directory) unless File.exists?(directory) filename='inputPatch.css' File.open(directory + filename, 'w') do |iP| iP.puts <<PATCH input;not([type=button]);not([type=file]);not([type=checkbox]);not([type=image]);not([type=radio]);not([type=reset]);not([type=search]);not([type=submit]){background-color; rgb(255, 255, 255); border-bottom-color; rgb(238, 238, 238); border-bottom-style; inset; border-bottom-width; 1px; border-collapse; separate; border-left-color; rgb(238, 238, 238); border-left-style; inset; border-left-width; 1px; border-right-color; rgb(238, 238, 238); border-right-style; inset; border-right-width; 1px; border-top-color; rgb(238, 238, 238); border-top-style; inset; border-top-width; 1px;} PATCH end
it makes a folder + file in /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins/
Then if you have Pro8 copy/paste and return this.
`defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.google.sketchuppro8.plist WebKitUserStyleSheetEnabledPreferenceKey -bool True` `defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.google.sketchuppro8.plist WebKitUserStyleSheetLocationPreferenceKey '/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins/__InputPatch/inputPatch.css'`
or for free try
`defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.google.sketchupfree8.plist WebKitUserStyleSheetEnabledPreferenceKey -bool True` `defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.google.sketchupfree8.plist WebKitUserStyleSheetLocationPreferenceKey '/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins/__InputPatch/inputPatch.css'`
Restart SU
You only need to do this once, and all your input boxes in SU will work correctly [without editing any files]
If the problem is resolved in the future you can just bin the __inputPatch Folderjohn

thanks John for this fix. Works great

Thanks John
That's magic; a very elegant solution.

YEaH !!!
John !
Corrected !
I had to do it twice.
(The cursor jumps at the end of the pasted text, so one does not see at once what has just been pasted in the Ruby console input field.) -

Hi,
I have the same problem as a lot of others, I guess. Mac OS 10.6.8 + SU Pro 8.0.15157.
Tried your solution, and it works on DC's, but not on everything...or at least not with Fredo6 Tools, SU Clock etc etc.
I had the problem with 1001Bit plug but with the upgrade it was fixed.
Is it that the maker of the plugin does something wrong when writing the code (miss something)?
After your fix I seem to have no problem with DC's. That helps a lot - THANKS!
Is there something else to do? Tried your fix many times to make sure I did it right. Think I did.
Look at the result (pic). Is that "nil" OK?? ...or am I doing something when pasting?Do you know if a full upgrade to Mountain Lion helps? Does anyone know?
Thankful for some help.
Cheers

Mountain Lion and SU8 Maintenance release 'M4' appears to have fixed the blackouts here.
I renamed my 'fix' folder to disable it and all I have checked works.
ML is much better IMHO.

Hi John,
Thanks! Can You tell me where to find "M4"? When I download from Trimble, it's only the "M3"...?????
When did they release M4, I downloaded today, 20120904, and it is still the same.Cheers
Jan -

It will take the "team" awhile to get the localized language releases ready.
