A possible future feature is the ability to colour the layers as in Sketchup's layers window. Also to rollup the window by clicking on the title bar.
Unfortunatly, the API doesn't allow me to do that...

Ive got some problems with the layer panel.
- It is asking for me to update the current ie explorer. But i already installed version 10 although it is not my standard browser, which is firefox.
Can you go to http://whatsmyua.com/ with Internet Explorer, and tell me what it says ?

- When I use the features as explained s. a . creatíng groups and layers and sort the whole structure, then i will not be able to open this very drawing again after saving and closing it properly. The comment is: ²wrong file format!² , the file is actally lost.
Did you create these groups with a version of Layers Panel older than 0.3.1 ? Like 0.2, 0.3, etc
Thanks

I'm having issues with renaming layers - only some though others work fine.
deleting layer and starting again this dosen't happen - I can rename again
(i didn't have to make a video for this but I've never done it, so there you go....)
-
Is it renamed in SU's layer window ?
-
I didn't see but this isn't the fist time this has happened so will keep a better note next time.
-
i've found an issue? i added layers after placing a bunch into groups and when i drag the unassigned layer into a group i get a javascript error. attached is the file and the screenshot. i'm using SU 2013 pro 13.0.4812 on Windows Vista SP2. i have full permission in SU prog dir.

Ok, thanks.
I think it's related to Observers watching layers change. I had these kind of issue in the past and resolved a lot of them, but it's possible that some remain. If it's indeed related to observers, it should occur only with old layers created before Layers Panel was installed.gullfo > I'll look at your file.

Ok Glenn, I found the issue. You simply have too many layers. It's related to the max length a url can pass between the dialog and SU. I forgot about this... I'll need to rewrite some code.
-
Thats it- it was an old layer. The reason i was changing it was to give it a capital letter, I started out with non-capitalised layer names......

does that mean theres a limit on layers?
c -
For now, yes. I had this planned, but completely forgot about it. So I don't know the current limit. But in next version, it should be fixed.
-
no problem! that's what beta-testing is all about

that's the short list
once you start to use ACAD standard architecture layer sets it gets "big" -
@bimbalas said:
On renamaming layers or groups directly on Layers Panel with letters from non ASCII character set (e.g. ąžįėš) this letters was changed to unicode codes.
I just tested, and it works for me when I rename a layer to "ąžįėš". Which versions of Sketchup, windows, and internet explorer are you using ?

New version 0.3.2 beta !
Changelog :
- Fix bugsplat when deleteing/purging layers with Outliner opened
- New naming conventions (For the Extension Warehouse)
Download in the plugin store !
At startup, you should get once "Error Loading File layers_panel.rb no such file to load -- layers_panel.rb". This is normal, it's just the plugin deleting the old files.

this is with release 0.3.2
same naming issue with names not changing in the LayersPanel - they are changing in the Layers Window thoughI updated the plugin this morning. The layers were made yesterday. I closed down SU. restarted SU. captured film so its not happening with the layers or folders before the plugin was installed, as all were made yesterday

EDIT: in the time its taken me to write the above the layer has now changed to 'hello' in LayersPanel. just so you know...

Doh! I was just about to look at this.
Can you PM me the old version that crashed? I'd like to have a look at it.
(Also, what did you do to avoid the crash?) -
Is it just the Win32 API dependency that makes this Windows only?
-
And I just downloaded 0.32 from the Plugin Store but it alerts me about a new version...
-
hello again,
Still can't update layer using a shortcut key with LayersPanel open.
works fine when i close LayersPanel.

This is really weird. How about renaming a layer, then close the dialog and open it again ? Is the name updated ?

cIs the dialog focused when you're trying to do that ?
Has anyone else the same issue with shortcuts ? It works fine for me, when the dialog is not focused.@tt_su said:

Nope. A lot of things need rewriting. Pumping, etc...
BTW, I think I read somewhere that you work on mac ? Would you be ok with helping me testing on osx ?@tt_su said:

Yeah, sorry about that, it was a serverside issue. It should be fixed now.
