[Plugin] GKWare Door Maker
-
The pro version is in final testing. Here are some doors that can be made along with a sketchup file that I've used to create these profiles.
Keep the geometry simple. Arcs are 3 to 5 segments. Straight lines are not divided.
When you are happy with a profile just select the face and click the new "Add Profile" button. Select which profile group and give the new profile a name. We simply add a txt file into 1 of the 4 profile group folders.The next time you run Door Maker Pro - the profile will be in the drop down list.

Awesome Garry...

Door Maker Pro lets you build passage doors. Just set the Stile Width to say 4-5 inches and set the Bottom Rail to 8-10 inches. You can set it to what ever you want.
Some of these examples make use of the new "Glass Combo" choice where the Top Panel is glass and the other panel(s) are your door material.
Also notice that doors that are >= 30 mm thick have the panel raise and moulding on both sides.

Hey Garry, my translation file is German language, not Italien...

Sorry - I knew that - it was a copy and paste error !!

Here is the new web interface for the Door Maker plugin.
I am looking for a few testers for Mac and Windows 8.
There are a few advantages that web dialog brings to the plugin.- Web dialog takes less room.
- Open help file directly from web dialog.
- A few of the inputs now have tool tips (captions in red).
- Options now grouped a bit more intuitively.
- Some options now interact with each other. Change handle location and 'Click Action' automatically changes. You can override the 'Click Action' when you need to.

Just downloaded and installed Doormaker using the Sketchucation plugin store auto install and the dialog box will not come up. (Running SkecthUp 2014 on a a Mac OSX 10.9.4). Uninstalled the plugin and did a direct download from the Sketchucation website and installed the plugin through the preferences window and have the same problem. Here is what the dialog box reports when using auto install...
gkware_doormaker_v1.0.30
AutoInstall Finished.
Using Main Plugins Folder.
/Users/b-d-hayes/Library/Application Support/SketchUp 2014/SketchUp/PluginsI can select Door Maker from the Plugins menu and the sketch up script tells me to "select first corner of door" I do this then select a diagonal point and I get what looks like an arched top panel only, no styles or rails.

Can you start a new session and run be ruby console prior to running the door maker? Also, I do write information to the gkware_doormaker\config folder - so you need to have rights to that folder.
I don't have mavericks - I run Windows 7 OS. I can give you a stripped down version that just pops up a web dialog box if that will help figure out the problem.

Please try it and tell me if it solves your problem. -

I have a new version 1.0.33 that contains a number of new features.
- Half Width Stiles - Make either the right or left stile half the width. Good for Bifolds
- Second Handle - Places a mirrored copy of the handle on the back side of the door. Good for passage doors.
- Wood Grain - Allows you to manage the direction of the grain for door and drawer panels.
- Save and retrieve Named Style Sheets. Allows you to name any number of style sheets with specific door settings. For instance you could have a list such as
Bifold Doors
Passage Doors
Panel Raised PortlandChoices are virtually endless
This version will be available by Thursday Sep 4th

New Door Maker plugin just about ready.
Added mitered doors. User defines their own frame profile.You can optionally select the back edge of the groove at the same time as selecting the profile face.
Door Maker will use the information to build your doors.
-
Is there an option to configure the number of vertices in the curves? on the door profiles?
-
You have complete control over your own profiles. Make them however you wish.
