Potential Project
-
Didier Bur,
If it is possible with the 3d text or not, Thank you very much. This will be an incredible help that I can use immediately. I am currently finishing up an 1200du project which prompted my initial 'Potential Project' suggestion. I was not expecting anything as polished and flexible as your script, and surely nothing so quickly.
I sooooo owe you a beer or 3. -
Here is the second attempt, with it you can insert either 2D texts (like before) and 3D texts (these will be centered on your clicks.
Install:
Unzip the archive and place Numbering2D3DText.rbs in your Plugins folder (remove any old version)
Restart SketchUp, select your option (2D or 3D) in the Draw menu2D Text Usage:
Fill the dialog:
- Prefix will precede the number (you can include spaces,\n or \t sequences)
- Suffix will follow the number (you can include spaces,\n or \t sequences)
- Text altitude will be the height (in your current units) of all the texts, above ground (you can use negative values)
- Click to insert label(s) , Right-clic to change settings, Escape to cancel, Return to end the tool.
3D Text Usage:
Fill the dialog:
- Prefix will precede the number (you CANNOT include spaces,\n or \t sequences)
- Suffix will follow the number (you CANNOT include spaces,\n or \t sequences)
- Text altitude will be the height (in your current units) of all the texts, above ground (you can use negative values)
- Text font: enter a font name like Arial, Verdana, Tahoma, Times New Roman, etc.
- Font Height: the height of the characters, in your current units
- Extrude: the width (or depth) of the characters
- Click to insert label(s) , Right-clic to change settings, Escape to cancel, Return to end the tool.
N.B.: 3D texts will be centered around the points you click, in top view.
Enjoy !

Version 2 works great. Thank you, again.

Hi,
Here is the very last final version (I swear)
More options for the 3d texts settings:
Some examples:
-
Those are very nice enhancements. I will try it today on a project. TY.

Very nice enhancements!
-
Neat! Now copy and paste this to Layout API please.
(Yes, I am very well aware it doesn't work that way, just commenting on the lack of LO enhancements and wishing we had something like this there.)
-
yup... that would be cool.
-
I see at least 1 missing feature. The text label layer.
(Imagine having to select all those text objects to change their layer?)Workaround is to create and change to a "Text" layer (named whatever you please) before creating the text.

@Dan:
Layer feature done
