      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...

        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.

          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

                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.

                      i agree; you just have to know it

                      the plugin seems to be ready for use; adding an active link to a web page would be nice, but the link can be added and copied/pasted in an internet browser also, so it is not very important

                          Hello

                          Thanks alexanor for this translation.
                          For Glro, in version 1.5.4, I optimized the code in order have the text area more reactive.
                          I hope it will works, I just have one model at works that slow down the text area, so I cannot check at home.

                          Regards.

                                    Inteloide whether you can connect to the script calculator? It would be convenient to make calculations and take notes in one window ...

                                      Can't you do calculations already in the operating system's calculator, in SketchUp's Ruby Console and in various Ruby Console plugins? You can then copy&paste the calculations that you want to keep.

                                      The comments plugin is to save text that the user enters, and not to automatically evaluate and manipulate parts of the text. I think it should keep focussed to do this task well.

                                            Great plugin, very, very useful, and seconding the idea of building a/the calculator into the comment box.
