      Hey guys, I've added a poll at the top of the topic.
      Choose what render engine you would like to be supported by Layers Panel.

      I don't garanty that I can make it work with every engine, but it some cases it can be done by the engine's dev (Like Tomasz is supposed to be doing with Thea πŸ˜„ ). So if an engine gets lots of vote and it has to be done by the dev, I can communicate them that there is high demand.

          A couple known bugs:

          • "Add Group" doesn't work the first time you click it.
          • Unfolding the window doesn't work correct. Instead of unfolding it expands a little in the width.

              Is there a way to tell within Sketchup which version I am using?

                  "Still", you mean you had this issue before 0.9 ?
                  Does it happen everytime ? Only when opening a model, not when opening the dialog ?

                  Window > Preferences > Extensions > click on Layers Panel. You'll get the version at the bottom.

                    Yes. And when I change the condition or existence of layers in SU Layers it does not "track" into Layers Panel.

                    Yes. On two different computers: home and work (Win7)

                    β€’It also pops up when using Ctrl-Z to restore a Ctrl-X.
                    β€’It also still disrupts the layers associated with a scene: if I change the layer combination in a scene and the go back to a different scene the layers in that previous scene have been lost. When I disable Layers Panel the problem goes away (repeatable experience over many models and both machines)

                        Did you try to delete everything related to Layers Panel in your plugins folder, and perform a clean install ?

                        About the scene issue, did you check that the auto-update option is disabled ?

                          Also the Ctrl-X/Ctrl-Z dialog box has a different Char:59 instead of 65

                          By the way: closing and opening Layer Panel gives the Char:59 version of the error.

                            Yes, and the error pops up during the installation!

                            It was enabled. I disabled it, closed and reopened SU and the scenes are saved (hooray), but I get the Char:59 error each time I switch scenes. By the way, I have to click "Yes" and then the dialog box comes up again and I have to click "Yes" a second time.

                              So, the error pops up even when the dialog is closed ?

                                No. I have it set to open when SU starts. But it "errors" when I turn it off and then on again.
                                From previous post: Disabling the auto-update option seems counter-intuitive. What does "auto-update" do?

                                  It auto-updates the layer state of the current scene.
                                  If you turn on or off a layer, it's saved in the scene.

                                      It's the first OSX version, so it still has bugs. We need you to find them πŸ˜‰

                                      Glad to join in.

                                      Problem:
                                      The options panel doesn't work for me.
                                      None of the changes take effect.
                                      Shown, reopening options(right) after setting(left).
                                      Tried reinstalling and tested on 2013 also, same no go.

                                      Annoyance:
                                      Upon closing, Save dialog appears even if no changes made on file with this extension enabled.
                                      For those of us using shortcuts or main toolbar, having floating toolbar automatically load. Deleted that line for now.

                                      Suggestion:
                                      You might want to enlarge icon for use in main toolbar, barely discernible as shown on top shot.

                                      OSX 10.9, Safari 7.0, SU 8

                                      Good luck and thanks again...

                                        I have to initialize some stuff, so there is no real workaround for the save dialog.

                                        As for the toolbar, can't you just hide it in the toolbars options ?

                                          I have 188 rb files. I used SketchUcation Extensions Manager and was able to disable all the other extensions (that had no effect on the problem[s]). But SketchUcation Plugins Manager can only disable one plugin at a time. 😞 So disabling all of the rb files one at a time is not very desirable.
                                          What I will try is: disable my Plugins folder and make a dummy with just Layers Panel and whatever basic plugins are required.

                                            The SketchUcation Plugins Manager [and its other siblings - Extensions Manager and Plugins Uninstaller] will allow you to select multiple items in either column - Loaded/Enabled or Disabled - clicking and holding the Ctrl for individual items added to the selection or Shift key to add all up/down from the last one you selected [like any Windows app]...
                                            Then click the red > button to disable as desired.
                                            IF you made a named 'Set' [blue button] of the current Plugins set up... BEFORE doing major change... then you can easily revert to that named 'Set' on a later occasion...

                                            The Managers are there to ease the pain... you just need to restart SketchUp to see the changes... πŸ˜„
