[Plugin] LordOfTheToolbars - v2.9c - 20 Dec 24

Hi. I could not figure out your instructions on how to restore the tools from the "Menu" ((
Maybe write in more detail? Thank you in advance.

I wrote exactly the more detailed description I can think of.
Is actually the "step by step" explaination and I also added the code you need and the reference page for the syntax you should use to recall your shortcuts from SendKeys.

Please notice that this DOES NOT restore the "menu button" functionality of LOTT in SU23.
This is just a workaround to create a ruby script button in LOTT that can mimic the missing "menu button" feature.
The ruby script just invokes a shortcut when you hit the toolbar button.
You need to assign that shortcut (to the menu item you want to create a button for) before creating the button itself.

Bonjour,
J'ai installé LordOfTheToolbars sur la version 2023, mais il semble qu'il ne trouve pas le chemin pour accéder aux menus, y a-t-il une procédure manuel pour lui indiquer le chemin ? Il semble que je n'ai pas trouvé comment faire. Du coup je me suis remis à la version 2022 faute de pouvoir retrouver mon organisation fonctionnel. Faut-il attendre une mise à jour ou est-ce qu'il y a un moyen de rendre fonctionnel l'accès aux menus.
Merci

Hi. I'm ashamed that I can't figure out how it works. Maybe someone will record a training video?)))

There are videos in the first post of this thread. There are others on YouTube.

Hi Fredo. Perhaps you misunderstood me. I wanted to see a video in which, with the help of a script from the author of panixida, it will be possible to use the command menu. The menu is a very convenient tool, its absence does not allow me to switch to SU2023.

Hello,
I have installed LordOfTheToolBars on sketchup 2023, but there is no access to any menus tools. Only icons. It means that i can't creat icons, anything.
The most interresting thing about your plugin.
What can I do to fixe or modify to fixe that link problem.
Thanks for your help.

Yes. Menu disappeared due to change of UI framework for Su2023 on Windows (on Mac this is still available). No workaround possible, unless Trimble provides new API methods.

Not exactly the same, but you can achieve similar result with this workaround.

I seem to have lost the Quick Command finder. I'm using Sketchup 2021 pro, and have the latest LibFredo and LOTT. I've tried reinstalling LOTT and have Sketchup installed as admin.
Is there any way to reset the position of where the quick command finder dialog pops up - or have I broken something?
Thanks v much

I seem to have lost my Quick Command Finder pop up. I'm all up to date, Sketchup installed as admin, and have reinstalled LOTT.
Is there a way to reset where the popup pops up - or have I missed or broken something? I'm on 2021 Pro.
Thanks!

Do you have several monitors?

I'm on a laptop with an extra screen. I disconnected the second screen when I was trying to retrieve the popup. No luck though.

Could you do the following

Open the Ruby Console
Launch the LOTT Find dialog
Copy paste the following command in the Ruby console and press Enter
Traductor::ChromiumWdlg.check_instance_displayed("LOTT_MiniFindDialog", true).set_position(0, 0)

The Find dialog should go to the position top left corner of your screen.

That solved it. Thanks so much.
Take care

Hi Fredo. Please tell me, is the operation of "menu" in SketchUp 2023 expected to be restored in the future? Is there any news?

It fully depends on the Sketchup developers. I filed the requests some time ago.
But, frankly, no idea....

Your plugin is amazing, I can't imagine further use of SU without it. Ot perfectly optimizes the workspace, "menu" is an integral part of it. Maybe we can help? I suggest, just like you, to make a request to the developers of SU.

Thanks again for all your great plugins!

I have a question on LordOfTheToolbars.　2.4a

I am using Mac (mac OS Montrey).

I would like to use skp2023 but the icon hover does not work.
I was able to use skp2022 with no problem.
I am using V-ray, but I cannot customize the icons.
V-ray does not appear in the master toolbar manager...

I would like to ask if this can be improved in the settings.
Thank you in advance for your confirmation.
