      Hi Aaron,

      if I am part way through my design using build edge and I need to close sketchup. When I re start sketchup and continue with my design do I loose the functionality of buildedge? Does it commit to sketchup on closing in other words.

        Hi Bruce,

        Closing SketchUp should not affect your BuildEdge data. You should be able to save, close, reopen and continue working. We only Commit when you tell us to!

        Thanks!

          Hi Aaron, have watched the 3.0 videos and looks like a big leap foward!!

          For some reason though this is what I get when loaded? Seems the dialogue box is scrambled; I can't seem to be able to insert my serial number.

          Hi Andrew!

          Woah! That ain't right!

          Looks like a problem initializing the java script. Is that happening every time you try to run, or just the first time? If it IS every time, I will need to get some more data from you. I think it is something that we can fix pretty easily, but it might take a little bit of investigation.

          Thanks!

            I will try the uppdater 😄

            Much better... 👍
            Just a very anxious suspense ! 😲
            1 minute 40 seconds before something arrives after the first click on the icon !
            All is freezing then all works fine! 😄
            Never seen that for any plugin : I have tested some thousands! 😄
            Do you test something to Internet ? (I have a speedy connection)
            Tested on a not very old computer 😄 ( 3 years 5 cores)
            This is happening only at the start of a Sketchup session!
            After the first openning of the plugin it works normally at each call of the plugin! 😄

            Another thing: does it normal in the free demo to not have door, window, floor ?
            (colors image are mine in 2D prog changed 😉

            [attachment=0:1llvyi36]<!-- ia0 -->testb.jpg<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:1llvyi36]

            First off, I gotta say I am really enjoying the colors.

            Now, as for the delay, is that happening every time you launch, or just the first time? Unfortunately, we do authorize the software, and that can take a little time (though, to be honest, 1 minute 40 seems a little too long).

            As for doors, windows and floors, yep! That, along with advanced roof input and automatic input are paid functionality (but only $29!).

            Thanks!

              haven't heard back on how to retrieve my serial number...

              also I tried rounding a curved wall and it seems the system is can't do short wall lengths like under 8" maybe?

                Hi Kris,

                Sorry, did you contact our help desk for your Serial Number? It is very quick and easy to reset. If you email me (adietzen@keymark.com) I will get that done and right back to you. Alternatively, you can contact the Help Desk through our site (http://www.buildedge.com/help).

                As for the walls, it will not draw walls that are shorter than they are wide. It can do 8" long walls, as long as the wall width is thinner than 8".

                Thanks!

                  they just sent serial, as for length of wall. that's probably the issue walls are 6" and was trying to make 4" length. around a curve.

                    Aaron,

                    I don't see anyway to get the new version for free on your website (I am a current user)?? Does the free version on the plug-in store become the full version with the input of my old activation key?

                    Regards,
                    Kris

                        Hi Kris,
                        Glad you figured that out... yeah, we will be changing that term from "Update" to "Upgrade"

                        Sorry for the confusion... 😳

                        Thanks!

                              Hi Andrew,

                              Can you send me the .log files in your C:\Users"user name"\AppData\Roaming\BuildEdge\Plugins\SketchUp\BuildEdgePLAN folder?

                              Just email those directly to me (adietzen@keymark.com) and we can see why Java is not initializing on your machine.

                              Wait! Are you suggesting that you actually DO shut down SketchUp??? I thought you kept it running all day, every day!

                              Obviously, that is not ok... for what it;s worth, you are the first person I have heard this from! I will check with our development guys and see how we should go about tracking this down.

                              Sorry for the inconvenience, guys, but thank you for the quick feedback! Hopefully I can get you running quickly!

                                    I just bought BuildEdge 3.0. I cannot insert any windows, no matter what I do? Tried to change template to inches etc. but nothing matters. Does anybody have a solution, please

                                      It did that to me too. Make sure height of window is not the same as top of window. I think when start out default are the same height.
