      Hello,

      LP 0.9 beta, SketchUp 8.0.4811, Windows7

      I found a problem with unicode in the layer's name. When I use russian characters for the layer name, they replaced by the question signs. At the same time, russian text for group name showed correctly.

      With best regards,
      Victor

        Can you copy/paste here the problematic characters? Thanks

          This plugin is something I have been waiting for...! I used layers and not Outliner and the ability to group layers for different designs on the same model is just fantastic.

          Well done...!!!!!

              Hi JBB,

              You think it would be possible to collapse the panel by double-clicking on the title bar, just like the SU Panels? I have many groups and layers (30+) and it would be great to minimize the panel when I am working on something else in the model.

              Still loving it..!

                That's not possible, but you can click on the dark thin bar just below the title bar, it will minimize the dialog.

                    Hi Jiminy,

                    Here's a couple of feature request for when you have the time:

                    • You have the add layer button wich when you press a button for long gives you the possibility to add a layer hidden on new pages. Usefull but hard to access, would it be very hard to make it faster to access? Like a separate button or a one click drop down (drop up actually) button?

                    • Could you also create a button for adding a layer only visible on current scene?

                    Thanks again for this wonderful plugin,

                    JQL

                              Somehow, using the plug-in, it is always required to save the project. Whether someone edited or not. I think that it should not be.
                              thanks

                                      Jiminy,

                                      Have a small problem with your amazing Layers Panel plug-in.

                                      Whenever I use the Grab Location feature of SU to Geo-locate my model, the Google Earth Terrain and Snapshot layers come into the model, BUT Layers Panel assigns BOTH layers the same name..."Google Earth Snapshot", and the functionality of Layers Panel is broken.

                                      If I open the standard SU Layers, both the "Google Earth Terrain" and "Google Earth Snapshot" layers are there, and work as expected.

                                      Only when I close your Layers Panel, and re-start it via the Icon does it fix the layer names and functionality.

                                      Don't know if others are experiencing this, but it happens with existing models, and if I start a brand new, empty model.

                                      Hope you can take a look and address this.
                                      Thanks.
                                      Dave.

                                          first of all, thanks for porting this plugin to Mac OS.

                                          I am running mac os 10.8.5 and am facing some problems that I will report as they happen.

                                          the first is the fact that when I open your layers panel it does not recognize the current layers but loads the ones the file opened with.

                                          the second is the fact that I highlight a layer, select a group and try to move it to that layer but nothing happens.

                                            This version is working well for me at this time, where the previous installation just killed Sketchup totally.

                                            I am running this on OSX 10.8 and am now so used to the CMD-click setting that I am having trouble with the CTRL-click setting.

                                            Since your extension is similar to the Layers panels in Photoshops, which I also use, I automatically pressed CMD-G to create the group.
                                            I had another ruby or extension that recognizes which OS that SU is running on and changes actions accordingly. Could you try and modify the commands based on the OS and implement the CMD keystoke instead of CTRL for the MAC users.

                                            This is exactly what I wanted.

                                            Thanks much.
