[Plugin] ClothWorks v1.8.0 - 28 Apr 2024

@Anton_S Hello, Mr. Anton. I don't know when you will initiate the redevelopment of MSPhysics. As far as I know, countless people are looking forward to this project. Alternatively, you can develop a plugin that can partially implement certain functions.
For example, a simulation tool that can implement simulation functions similar to fusion360 and SolidWorks may not require embedding a physics engine (I'm not sure), but only adding axes and motors, as well as collision detection. Used for designing machinery, mechanical gif diagrams, and checking the rationality of mechanical design in sketchup. I hope to receive your reply.

ClothWorks is amazing
I still use MSPhysics because nothing else is as good at what it does
Can you supply me with code to

1. turn layers on and off
2. hide/unhide objects
   for me to use with my variables, keydown,, ontouch and ontick events in my MSPhysics scripts
   old msphysics video example here...

Hello

i am a huge fan of the plug-in, however i ran into troubel. Recently when i try to use it, the UI Window its not visible - not sure if its opening, but the app runs and i can play the cloths. I allready try to reinstallations and restarts. Any idea whre can i find back my UI Window?
I am using multiple screens - also unpluging and classical Windows 11 windows search didnt help.

@Nicole_M_W If click the toolbar icon fails to display the dialog then open the ruby console and click the icon and see it there are errors.

But since we don't know what version of SketchUp or Clothworks you are running its hard to say more really.

The also an extension by Dan Rathbun that resets dialog positions if they are off screen. Its call Dialog Cascader. Search for cascade and you'll find it in our Sketchucation Tools in SketchUp

@Rich-O-Brien

thank you! Excellent the Dialog Cascader solved my Problem right away. UI is back.

I am on
Clothworks 1.8.0a
Skechup Pro ໿SketchUp Model૿{24.0.553

just downloaded and installed the 24.0.0594 but i already applied your cascade solution so i can't tell if it was because of the missing update.

thank you for your fast help!

[Rich O Brien]

@Nicole_M_W no probs. Dialogs playing hide and seek is common. Dan’s tool is a lifesaver

Thank you for this inspirational message! I got to get mpshysics back to life!

@Anton_S
Did I read that correctly? - "I got to get mpshysics back to life!"
Yes! Yes! Yes!
That would be fantastic. When will the time come?

컴퓨터 포멧을 하고난후로 라이센스 인증이 되질안네요
해결방법을 알수 있을까요?

All of the 3 seats are allocated, presumably using your old computer[s] details.
You need to free up the seats so that you can reactivate them for your new computer[s].
If you have the latest versions of the extension and the SketchUcation toolset [for the licensing] installed, and SketchUp restarted to sync, you should be able to do this using the submenu items for the extension under the Tools menu.
You can also manage each of your licenses by logging in to SketchUcation.com and using the menu item PluginStore > My Licenses... page...

3개의 자리는 모두 할당되었으며, 아마도 이전 컴퓨터의 세부 정보를 사용하고 있을 것입니다.
새 컴퓨터에서 다시 활성화할 수 있도록 자리를 비워야 합니다.
최신 버전의 확장 프로그램과 SketchUcation 도구 세트[라이선스용]가 설치되어 있고 SketchUp을 다시 시작하여 동기화한 경우 도구 메뉴 아래에 있는 확장 프로그램의 하위 메뉴 항목을 사용하여 이 작업을 수행할 수 있습니다.
SketchUcation.com에 로그인하여 메뉴 항목 PluginStore > 내 라이선스... 페이지를 사용하여 각 라이선스를 관리할 수도 있습니다.

Amazing plugin, great job I wanted to purchase a 1 seat license, since I wont be using Sketchup that often, but it is not currently available on the list, would it be available maybe in future?
many thanks

결재 관련 질문이 있습니다. 회사에 구매 요청 예정인데 결제하면 계속 사용인 가능한 구매 서비스 인가요? 일정기간 사용 후 추가결제가 이루어지는 구독 서비스 인가요?

I have a question about payment. I am planning to request a purchase from the company. Is this a purchase service that I can continue to use after payment? Is this a subscription service that requires additional payment after a certain period of use?

[Rich O Brien]

@jabledesign License is perpetual with no ongoing payments.

Hi there... I have SketchUp 2026 version, is there any other way to buy licence and install to my Windows ?

[Vitalina]

Hello,

I have a problem with ClothWorks.

Everything is set correctly according to the manual:

• Cloth is assigned
• Pins are assigned on vertices
• Simulation runs correctly

But during simulation I cannot select pins.

When I try to drag/select pins:

• no yellow selection area appears
• no gizmo appears
• instead I only get a red dashed line (standard SketchUp drag)

Pins can be selected only when simulation is OFF.
During simulation they are not interactive.

Because of this I cannot move pins to create folds (for curtains).

What could be the reason?
Is it a known bug or conflict with other plugins?

Thank you.

[Rich O Brien]

When the simulation is running your cursor should be White and the box select has a slight yellow fill...

[Vitalina]

Yes, I understand that during simulation the cursor should turn white and a yellow selection box should appear.

In my case the cursor does turn white, but the selection still does not work:

• no yellow selection box appears
• pins cannot be selected
• no gizmo appears

So the issue is not the cursor, but that selection is not functioning during simulation.

[Rich O Brien]

Share the file that fails. Also your version SketchUp and the OS you are using.

For me its works on SketchUp 2023 to 2026 on Windows

[Vitalina]

Thank you for your response. The issue is resolved.

The problem was not the license itself. SketchUcationTools was either missing or not working correctly, so ClothWorks could not detect it and did not open the license window.

I reinstalled SketchUcationTools and now everything works fine.
