[Plugin] Add comments to your file

Looks good but I managed to break it for you.

If you create a new tab and Delete the General tab it gives you this error. Generally you wouldn't expect someone to delete the general tab, but I just had to do it to see.

Here is the correction :
Version 1.2.1

very efficient

would be nice to be able to rename the title of the tabs

"espanol" doesn't include "h"

maybe i type rather fast, but the comment get written in the window very slowly; maybe it is my computer

an internet link would be useful for me, because it would enable to attach a cloud hosted document to the model but a link to a scene would not; you can already switch scene using the native scene tabs

the button (icon) doesn't show up the first time after installing the plugin; but it pops up the second time you launch sketcup after installing the plugin

Hello

Rename function added :
Version 1.3.0

Place your mouse on tab name, and a new button appear.
I also added mouse title when over the button to discribe their function.

For hyperlink... you have to be more patient
For linking a tab to a scene, I think that people wants to show a tab when user click on a scene. That is quite easy to do with an observer.

For your slow key entry, I save the comment each time you press a key or you left the text area (to catch copy/paste events).
That may slow down system but not as much as I understand from you...

thank you

Hello !

Just post a new version that can link tab a scene : when clicking on a scene, the tab appears.
For that, click on the new button icon when mouse on tab. A new window open asking for tab name and scene link.

Oh...just thinking that translation is missing...I'll correct soon...

Hmmm, no, this version appears broken for me.
I can't change a name or link to a scene and deleting a tab throws the error attached.

Still getting the same error.

Box · 6 Apr 2014, 12:53

Sorry, I just noticed that it has a second error, thought it was a repeat but it is a different line.

There were a lot of bugs actually... Thanks for raising the error you had.
Version 1.5.1, just posted, corrects the tab deletion issue.

Inteloide

glro · 6 Apr 2014, 16:08

just downloaded the 1.5.1 version

found out you have to press on "TAB" to link a tab to a scene

but actually no link seems to be made on my computer, because when i clic on the tab in comment window, it doesn't show the linked scene in sketchup, and when i clic on the scene tab in sketchup, it does'nt show the linked tab comment

i am probably missing something...

Hello Glro,

Actually, the plugin should works like this : when selecting a scene in Sketchup, the linked (if defined) tab in plugin is shown.

The opposite (when clicking on a tab in plugin, show the scene in Sketchup) is not implemented yet. I could, if you need it.

About the javascript error you have, could you please tell me more : when do you have this error, what did you do before ?

when i clic on a scene tab in sketchup, it doesn't change anything in the comment window, even if i previously set a link between a comment tab and a scene tab

the error message i sent, i don't remember how it popped up

here is a new one: it appeared when i clicked on the comment button to show again the comment window, after closing it using the cross in the upper left corner

inteloide · 6 Apr 2014, 17:38

tiiuuuu !!!!
I've same bug when changing the language.... not good

inteloide · 6 Apr 2014, 18:14

okay, version 1.5.2 should solve javascript issue.
About your tab-scene issue, I tried from an empty file : it works.

Could you please open the ruby consol window (Window/Ruby Consol) to see if error appear Inside, when setting the link and changing the scene in SU ?

Thank you.

no error message in the ruby console ... because it works perfectly!

i clic on the scene tab and the comment window shows the corresponding tab, as said

after installation, i had to close sketchup and open it again, though; just after the installation, it didn't work

thank you, seems operational; i am not sure about the use of a backward link between the comment window and the scenes...

I don't know how to proceed to make it work for the first time. I think, it's the same of some other extension (from other developers) I installed in the past.

No big problem, I think.

I just add an help file in first post of this thread, in pdf format.
