      Version 1.6.8 - 09.28.2020

      • Added a "Refresh Licensee Data" button within the License tab of the Global Settings.

      http://design.medeek.com/resources/wallplugin/images/wall_su427_800.jpg

      Previously when you renewed your license you would need to go through some convoluted steps to refresh you license data within the plugin. This new feature reduces this process to a single mouse click.

      Previously the required steps were:

      1.) Remove the existing serial number.
      2.) Click the Save Settings button.
      3.) Re-enter your serial number.
      4.) Click the Save Settings button again.
      5.) Restart SketchUp.

            Texture vs. 3D Battens:

            https://aws1.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/9/b/9b14475c2c73f7239e17a162176a26833f8aeed5.gif

            Personally I prefer the texture myself, lower poly and it looks just as good or better than the real deal.

              Version 1.6.9 - 10.17.2020

              • Added the ability to create custom "Board and Batten" wall cladding materials within the Material Library.
              • Enabled "3D" Board and Batten wall cladding for all wall types: Rectangular, Gable, Shed and Hip.

              http://design.medeek.com/resources/wallplugin/images/wall_su432_800.jpg

              For the plugin to recognize the wall cladding material as a "board and batten" material is must be in this format:

              battens_{decimal value}{decimal value}{decimal_value}

              The three values are: batten spacing, batten width, batten depth respectively.

              There should be no white spaces inserted into the name, only the underscore character in three places as shown.

                Just over five years into programming these plugins, I released the first version of the Truss plugin Oct. 7, 2015.

                The further I go it seems like I just keep coming up with more things "todo". I really need to take myself and clone me about five times and then set each clone at developing the various plugins, maybe then I might get somewhere with all of this.

                                    Version 1.7.4c - 11.22.2020

                                    • Completed the "Beams" tab within the Global Settings.
                                    • Fixed a critical bug with the default settings for the following two window parameters: Jamb Ext. Reveal, Shim Gap.

                                    ***** CRITICAL BUG FIX *****

                                    When you first load the plugin it sets default parameters for walls, door, windows etc...
                                    A previous update introduced a typo into the code which incorrectly set the two window parameters listed above. This update corrects those two typos. It is highly recommended to update to the latest version of the plugin.

                                        We’ve all had a trying year these last few months but somehow, thanks to our customers, we’ve managed to keep up the good fight and are still actively developing our extensions here at Medeek Design.

                                        In recognition of the overwhelming support I have received from the SketchUp community these last few months I will be immediately offering 40% off of the mdkBIM bundle price using the coupon code GIVETHANKS20. (ends Dec. 1, 2020).

                                        This will reduce the bundle price from $170.00 USD to $102.00 USD. This promo code does not apply to any of the extensions purchased separately or to the electrical plugin. The offer also ends on Dec. 1 and no rain checks will issued thereafter.

                                          We’ve all had a trying year these last few months but somehow, thanks to our customers, we’ve managed to keep up the good fight and are still actively developing our extensions here at Medeek Design.

                                          In recognition of the overwhelming support I have received from the SketchUp community these last few months I will be immediately offering 40% off of the mdkBIM bundle price using the coupon code GIVETHANKS20. (ends Dec. 1, 2020).

                                          This will reduce the bundle price from $170.00 USD to $102.00 USD. This promo code does not apply to any of the extensions purchased separately or to the electrical plugin. The offer also ends on Dec. 1 and no rain checks will issued thereafter.
