      Hi all
      Yesterday I actually managed to release my very first SketchUp plugin
      "ViewportBuster".
      Eventually it became what I wanted, what I needed and what I was able to achieve at all πŸ˜‰ it passed the guidelines of the SketchUp Extension Store and especially I am happy to share my tool as one possible PNG-exporting solution with this community, especially because my previous used plugin solution came from this place here!

      https://sketchucation.com/plugin/2902-viewportbuster
      ViewportBuster is available as a free plugin.

      The target group for this Plugin are those who rely, like me, on a cross-team but nevertheless synchronised image data export out from native SketchUp.
      ViewportBuster is the small PNG exporter tool that can support all those across workplaces of different people and their individual UI setups and the correspondingly always different viewports to ensure an always predictable and consistent identical PNG export result which can even be automated to a certain extent by using individually editable presets.
      Such a standardisation and synchronisation of export image data can be advantageous for everyone, but especially for those who work in larger teams and feed their image data into any downstream and equally automated production process. This could be pre-configured layout tools (e.g. InDesign) or web applications etc...
      (I have released ViewportBuster for Windows versions only - simply for lack of any Mac test environment)
      For me this was a pretty long, exhausting but also interesting and inspiring journey and I have not only learned a lot but above all had a lot of fun!ViewportBuster+1_2025+_+Β©HornOxx.png Explain+SU_ex+VS+VPB_ex_1920.jpg
