I Need My VisMap!
-
Some years ago I wrote a plugin called VisMap (as in Visual Map) that made it easy to turn layers on and off. It no longer works. I'm told that is because it's Ruby 1 and needs updating for Ruby 2.
Well, as luck would have it I'm SketchingUp again and I need a tool like that. I want something where I can have an outline of my layers where you click "+" or "-" (arrows, whatever) to expand/contract sets of layers. (I'm working now on some models that are large and not nimble unless you look at just a small part.)
If anyone else wants such a tool, I'll need help with the Ruby portion. Not done any Ruby in almost a decade, I'm afraid. But I'm totally up-to-date with my JavaScript. Here's an example of my JS outline widget: http://martinrinehart.com
It's the widget near top-right, labelled "Home." Play with the title line buttons to see how it beats the Windows-standard outline widget.

Hello MartinRinehart,
I take the opportunity of your thread to thank you for the Edges to Rubies you link in your signature. I found out your tutorial some month ago and pages 15 and 16 made me on the track of animation. Just what I needed to jump into and now I am developing my own code I have just named a class the same of your 'Transformable' in your honour. It's quit different from your but the name makes me remember your excellent tutorial. A thousand of thanks once more.
Have a good daySorry for the sidetrack. Second time today!
