Hi There,

Seems like a very powerful plugin, Well done and thanks for sharing!
I have a question though:

I'm using pro SKetchup pro 2015.
When i have already created cut plans and select one of them, right click and "make realsection", nothing happens. I pressed "show real section" but doesn't make any difference.

What M'I doing wrong ?

Thank you
Sl!m

Realsection is another plugin. Mine is RichSection.

Wow so sorry I got confused and completely missed that!
I would rather erase my thread as it is not useful for other users.

Merry Christmas!

I tried it and can now say that this is very useable and useful plugin. Thank you!

Hi there,

Everything was working very well... Until yesterday when I played with the settings.
After that the RichSection wouldn't cut through, just show the section line.
I even loose the ability to activate the original Sketchup section tool and had to restart Sketchup.
Any idea what's wrong ?

Using sketchup 2015, windows7 ultimate 64.
Thank you
Sl!m

Yes I had the same experiance. Sketchup stops cutting elements, and only showing the section lines, until restarting SU.
I only had it with SU2015 on win 8.1. I suppose it is linked to that SU version (?)

This plugin is not working for me. I have Win7 SketchUp 2014 Pro. It will not create scenes but I can use exiting scenes to use the hatch but then it leaves the line when going to another scene.

I have it working on windows 7, SU Pro 2014 and 2015. Can you switch on logging to ruby console in the menu Plugins/Richsection/Setting and send me the errors, if there are?

error for me. i install: richsection and dibac(solid section).
win8.1 x64 sketchup 2015

The new plugin crash when I use rich section on sketchup without texture.

And it only create 1 scene for each section now, unlike the version before this where I got 2 scenes for each rich section. I tried to search on the rich section setting on the "scene created for each rich section", there's only one option available "scene, section plane visible, no camera aplies."

I tried to reset the setting with no results. I can't get 2 scenes for each rich section that I create. I missed that auto paralel camera and auto hide section plane visibility whenever I create rich section.

Hi,

where can I find the older version (0.5.4)? In this latest version there's no option in "settings" to create 2 scenes...??? It's crashing a lot too. Installed on SKU2015 Pro. Version 0.5.4 was working just fine, and the option for creating 2 scenes (without camera + aligned to section), is very important for us! Please help! Appreciate your attention, Gabriel

kylintz

I have the same problem like you agmgpro haha

pgarmyn

You can create as much scenes as you want, but, after scene creation, you will have to switch the section layer on, set section plan visibility ... and update the scene. 2 Scenes (in the settings) will come back, but i can't make 0.5.4 available because the data structure (for richsection information) saved in your file has changed.
About crashing : what other plugins are you using?

kylintz

I think the crashing is caused by the #default material. On a fresh sketchup file, if i create a scene without applying #default rich section material to random object first, the sketchup would crash after creating rich section.

And about the 2 scenes, I couldn't get it work. I couldn't make the option to create 2 scenes automaticaly for each rich section to work. There's only one option available on rich section setting for "Scenes created for each richsection" : Scene, sectionplan visible, no camera applied.

pgarmyn

@kylintz:
Maybee my answer was not clear : the option for creation of 2 scenes doesn't exist in the latest version (it will come back). You can create yourself extra scenes as described before.

About problems with loading #default : is the plugin installed in the default folder?
To be able to help you, i need :
If you switch on the ruby console : are there errors ?
Please fill in your profile : windows version, Sketchup version ...

Thank you

pgarmyn

@esense3d:
Did you tried without changing the parameters?

agmgpro

Thanks pgarmyn,

waiting then for 2 scenes to come back!

(it's possible for you to send me the older version via email??? If yes, my email is agmgpro@gmail.com)

Thanks again!

I have a problem with the setting panel.
When I click on the button to call the setting panel, nothing happens.
(My Sketchup is the last one 15.3.331 64 bit)

And most of time I encounter a bug splat windows when I just click on "create" for a first Rich Section. The section become grey, and everything close.
An other information for you : When I succeed to create one, I don't have a lot of color section choice, only wide stripes by default and Black (plain color)...

I don't understand why I'm alone to have this problem.

I use sketchup for a professional need and I'm aware about how the sketchup plugins works.
I have tried to remove your plugin, and install again... But it's the same problem all the time.

If any conflicts, just look below. My only plugins installed are :
Sketchucation
Bezierspline
ExtrudeTools
PipeAlongPath
tt_cleanup
tt_material_replacer
Projection
jf_addlayer
Fredo6_RoundCorner
Mirror

If any idea ?

You have to select a section plan or section group. The instructions are in the text field below, or read the pdf file in the first post.
How big is your mode? Start without projection. For big projects, it is better to limit projection : with layers from scene, limited by distance... . Do not select any command after selecting the ´creaté button, until the Section panel is updated.
Only one default material will be created and aplied after creation with the default settings. Please Read the instructions : pdf file included in the first post: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323%26amp;t=55072#p499865
