Time to switch to Sketechup 2020.
I am curious:
What are first the 10 plugins (among many others) you will install ?For me (architect), it should be:
- JHS Powebar (this one is cheaty, a bunch of very useful plugins)
- IntrepidBear Vistool
- Mirror
- Selection Toys
- Material Replacer
- Bezier
- Joint Push Pull
- Curviloft
- FredoTools (Ah ThruPaint !) (and FredoScale)
- Round Corner
(and before Sketchucation plugin, obvisously ,))
Stay safe.

There are another dozen plugins that I always have loaded — plus Sketchucation (of course!) and 3DXSketchUp (for my SpaceMouse) — but these are the ones I use (almost) every session.
-
It's hard to pick just ten but these are some of my most frequently used ones so they are most likely to be the first ones installed.
Here is my list:- Sketchucation - The best way to manage plugins in SketchUp.
- Scrtool - An oldie to left click reverse faces.
- ene_texturepositioning - How did I managed before it existed? One of, if not THE, best plugin IMHO.
- weld_mod - my modified version of the weld script without any popup menus.
- Mirror - This is one of the scripts I feel should be native to SketchUp.
- BackOut - Close nested groups/components in one go.
- toComp - My own script to create components without the popup menu.
- 3pt_Window - My own script to create good enough windows fast.
- EdgeExtruder - My own script to pushpull edges.
- Chaos - My own script to randomly move, rotate and scale stuff.
-
without a specific order - all installed in one go - can't work without any of them;
mirror
fredoscale
fredocorner
archiver
selection toys
cleanup
profile builder
ene-texture positioning
solid inspector
split to plane
and a few of my own plugins -
- cmd_auto_invisible_layer - When adding a new layer you it doesn't make it visible in every scene.
- ene_texturepositioning - Quickly change texture orientation with Shortcut
- Mirror - Self explanatory
- PutOnLayer_sortname - Easily cleanup someones messy layering in a model
- SectionCutFace - To create sections that you can then draw on
- tt_selection_toys - Select only face/edges/hidden lines etc...
- su_solarnorth - Change north position
- RoundCorner - Self explanatory
- TIG-weld - Weld edges together into single edges
- SU Podium Browser - For models / materials etc...
- 1001bit_freeware - I only really use the fillet tool on this. But it's really useful.
