      I am very sure it's not your computer. I couldn't find anything on my own.

      "wrong number of arguments (0 for 1)"

      This error was on the Ruby Console? Can you tell me what was before or after that? There should be a line number and a line number is very much helpful!

          Ok, SketchUp does not tell us much about load errors. In such a case we need to reload the plugin manually in the Ruby Console to see more details. Can you do:
          load "ae_Snapshot/Snapshot.rb"

                  I'm not sure if I found it (line 187?). Can you post the error with line number that the Ruby Console gives?
                  load "ae_Snapshot/Snapshot.rb"

                      (I won't be back until tomorrow.)
                      I just made a quick change, can you test it?


                      Put it in .../Plugins/ae_Snapshot/Snapshot.rb

                        i replaced the previous file in the rbz, by this new one, and yes, now it works perfectly

                        a nice tool to keep tracks, and retrieve a lost model

                        thank you

                          been playing around with style
                          no need to open, but do the icons download to other computers
                          don't stay stuck when on the file posting, but I want to test if they download
                          This is the Standard horrible mac one
                          it's icon doesn't upload either??

                            This last release is impressively highly configurable - And then need to be tamed a bit

                            The fact is that I'm not easy with the {nr} parameter and the "change digit by" line bellow. 😳

                            I'm not able to make the incrementation work.

                            Whatever I test, I obtain something like this: xyz_00**_1-0-0**.png ❓

                            Need some further explanation 💭 😒

                              That depends on what you want to get (I don't know).

                              It's the printf format (I didn't need to implement it, otherwise it would be more complicated). You can write any separating characters and %d is replaced by the number.
                              It should work that for a major version 1, minor version 3, you get
                              [pre:1z9sy1o8]%d → file_1.skp
                              %d.%d (or %1d.%1d) → file_1.3.skp (number between %d sets minimum width)
                              %d.%2d → file_1. 3.skp (minimum width is filled up by spaces)
                              %d.%02d → file_1.03.skp (with additional 0, it is filled by 0)
                              %d-%02d → file_1-03.skp
                              %d_%02d → file_1_03.skp
                              %02d.%02d → file_01.03.skp
                              %02d.%03d → file_01.003.skp[/pre:1z9sy1o8]

                                Ok, thank you! I understand very better now.

                                But Hum! incrementation still dont work for me. Is it something I'm doing wrong or is it something that don't work with the script ?

                                http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj245/Spendauballet/SketchUp/Aerilius_Snapshot_005.jpg

                                By pressing my +1 button set as above

                                a xyz.skp Snapshot should be saved as

                                xyz_01_01.png (due to %02d_%02d)

                                and due to "change the 2 digit by 1", I understand that the following +1 button depressed should increment the files by the second digit:
                                xyz_01_02.png
                                xyz_01_03.png...

                                But my file is saved as
                                xyz_01_00.png and instead of increment it , overwrites on itself.

                                Still need help I guess 😳

                                Simon.

                                    Hi Ae,
                                    it is not necessarily very comfortable to be tester 😉 😕

                                    It seems that increment still doesn't work...

                                    (that decrements from 1 to 0 and then overwrites)

                                    Cheers,
                                    Simon.

                                    PS:It should certainly be very useful to add the usages of {nr} parameter to the first post

                                        one step further...

                                        would it be possible to:

                                        scan a folder
                                        open automatically all skp files in the folder
                                        produce the thumbnail and the file shortcut
                                        store them in the specified folder?

                                        Because the plugin is great to keep track of the future skp files, and it would be nice to collect the informations also for the already existing skp files...

                                          Hi Giro,
                                          I just popped in to post another idea and thought I'd use your query to clarify some thoughts, hope you don't mind.

                                          'SketchUp Menu' >> File >> Open >> Browse to Folder >> Select All .skp files >> Click 'Select'
                                          on a mac all will open in SketchUp, does it not on a PC?

                                          does it not do this, now? on the mac the 'shortcut's' not needed if you 'apply' the new icon image to the .skp file

                                          This is already a preference, but once they're on the .skp storing a copy [as a material, maybe?] in the model would be more useful [for transferring to another computer or sharing]

                                          You can already use this with old or new files, the problem with batch processing [fully auto] is getting bad views of some models that haven't been optimally positioned when last saved. You could code in a 'Perspective >> Zoom Extents' type event, but what if its a part of a huge scheme or a 2D floorPlan etc...

                                            a hidden editor pops down on hover
                                            allowing you to add all sorts of detail to the icon
                                            Everything is made inside a SU WebDialog [could just be an extra option in this plugin]
                                            I have a hard coded 'proof of principle' plugin that works on a mac and possibly a PC...
                                            You can add your own borders [made in SU]
                                            add logos
                                            add text
                                            can anyone else see any advantages to this concept or should I just finish it for myself and mac only.?
