[Plugin] Pie for SketchUp Beta (Windows Only)

activating the swipe option in the pie settings actually sends the screen opaque.
That's not a bug. The background overlay is to make the pie menu more visible. In some instances when modelling in busy scenes the pie icons can be hard to decipher when they overlay on textured geometry.
You would like a further checkbox in Settings that splits the touch/gesture and background overlay into separate toggles?

Oh, ok, for me it is enough to put me off using it. Perhaps just a white circle of background around the pie itself so you can still see the rest of the model. A separate toggle would be good.
I'm curious too, what commands is it set up to use. I know in your user guide you say it won't show ones without a button, but I noticed some are missing that do have a button. The most obvious example for me being the Lasso tool.

Really nice idea, I'm still not accustomed to work with pie menus in any software (I believe they are pretty popular in Maya maybe), but I'll try to use this and see how it goes. Thank you a lot for sharing.

I think you limited the plugin too early.Let folks get addicted (to the full version) for a month +,
then ask for $. -

I'd agree if I understood what you are saying.
The plugin is free to use. A license is free. It works without restriction for 90days if licensed.
Without licensing 95% of the tools features work.
There's no charge to use this for 90 days. After 90 days you just apply for another license and get another 90 days.

Oops it appears I missed this info initial post, I need to re-read it again. BTW For the plain people getting license = purchase, so I didn't even bothered to buy a ticket to a beta testing so I just uninstalled it after seeing it's limited. Generally is there any real need to limit things out of the box in beta and make people start all this license BS?
>> Without licensing 95% of the tools features work.
Without ability to use 3rd party icons I'd say 95% does not work -
Cheers for trying it anyway

Greetings,
Not sure if this is still being developed, but it looks like it would be very handy for the way I work in Sketchup.Unfortunately, it does not display the pie or setup menu, in the viewport. I can tell it's done something, as the title bar loses focus and turns grey, but nothing appears in the viewport.
Any ideas? I'm sure it's something silly on my end.
I have tried uninstalling and then reinstalling, of course closing Sketchup after each of those. That's about the extent of my troubleshooting, though.
I did check the google machine for viewport issues in Sketchup but didn't really find anything relevant.Thanks!

@RedRover72 Every update major update to SketchUp breaks it so its becomes tiresome to make it backwards and current compatible.
We'll see what SketchUp 2024 does before considering looking at it.
