-
I don't think so, but I don't know where it could come from.
So, maybe... -

Yup, even with brand new files. I'm also having problems creating layer groups and new layers...they either simply won't create or when they are created they can't be renamed, and nothing can be added to them, visibility controls won't work etc.
Sometimes I lose all of the layer group structures I've created previously as well. This happens when I open more than one session of sketchup side by side...
Error message when I try to create new layer groups attached.

Side by side you say?... I'll double check on that as I'm permanently doing it too!
With the new files I can create groups again though.

This is getting better and better! many thanks!!
small hick-up here. Is that the Layer Status does not work occasionally. I can still click it, but it won't update the layers I want to see.
Running on SU2014 on Mac -

Ok guys, I found the issue. I'll release a fixed version ASAP.
In the meantime, you can replace the two files attached in the folderAwesome! That seems to be it! I think everything is working now, so I'll start testing it out! Thanks again, this is a fantastic extension.

Running on SU2014 on MacI guess when having more than one models opened? If so, this will be fixed in the next release.

I started getting these error messages. is there a way to fix it? I am also not being able to add groups.

yep, it worked. no more error messages and I am able to create groups again.
however, I still have an old complaint: LP does not remember where I place its panel: at start it always opens on the same spot on the screen. if the native windows can remember where they were placed last why can't yours?
once more, thanks for a wonderful plugin.

Because this is bugged in OSX. I've not yet managed to find a workaround.
Solution: Use Sketchup in windows

no problem. it is a minor inconvenience compared to what your plugin offers.
I will pretend I did not read your suggestion to switch to windows...

jbb,
now that I am using LP as my main access to layers, I found another glitch which may or may not be caused by some oddity inherent to mac os. but I thought you should know of it anyway.
two things. one is the fact that I cannot select adjacent layers by shift-clicking the top and the bottom ones. it happens once in a long while. in general I have to command-click each layer to get a group selected at once.
the other is that, differently from the native layers window, if have a few layers selected, clicking on the eye to switch them off succeeds in switching only one off, not all of the selected layers as intended. as a result, to do that I revert to native window.
can this be fixed?
best regards.

This is weird, could you try to find out in which case it works?
In the meantime, you can also click and drag the mouse to draw a rectangle, just like you would to in SU to select entities.@edson said:

You need to shift-click on the eye.

Hi there awesome plugin! Can you add twilight support at some point?
Regards. -
Just like Thea, I can't trigger the Twilight render from ruby, so I can't add support for it.
It would have to be Twilight that reads Layers Panel data. -
jbb,
One more question. can Layers Panel deal with special characters from other languages? in my case, Portuguese is my native tongue and LP is not allowing me to write well in it.
As an example, when I write Proteção it comes out like this: Prote√ß√£o.
Any thoughts on that?
Cheers.

Hi JBB,
I have a couple more things to report back. LP is working well in the office environment so far. There are a couple things that cause no issue, but aren't working 100% for some reason.
On my station, everything works perfectly. I have full admin access to the folder which the plugin network runs from. The users to whom I've rolled the plugin out, who have read only access, cannot alter colors for the LP layers, nor do the color previews show. The little grip by which the color is chosen and the layer is moved shows as grey only.
Let me know what else I can provide or be of any help!
Thanks,
Matt
