[Plugin] Unhide ALL (Edges) - Inside Groups / Components ???
-
yesterday and today sketchup 2013 completely froze when using the unhide plugin (which I have used many times before witout problems)
the only difference I can see is that I twice had the outliner and components windows open, which I didn't before
both these windows were on a second monitor which I didn't have before either
anybody else had this experience?
Frank -
I have seen it discussed before, quite a while back, that Outliner especially, and Component windows can cause issues with your work when they are fully open. If you click on the top bar of each, they will "roll up". This, I have read, will reduce the problem.
Hope this helps. -
Alas, I too have found this plugin freezes in Sketchup 2013. I tried closing all dialogs, particularly the outliner, scenes and layers, and no luck. Pity.

No freeze here, just doesn't appear to do anything at all. Won't even unhide elements within the currently open component, even after view>hidden and Ctrl-A.
Will fiddle with it a bit more when I have time.

Here's v2.0 - I tweaked it to unhide from the active_context downwards - unhiding everything, even in deeply nested sub-containers...
If you start in the model it unhides 'all' entities.
If you start in a group it unhides 'all' entities inside that group etc...
It is one step undo-able.

Latest update seems to be working.
This should save a lot of time when I'm having to shuffle stuff around and hide/unhide a lot to clarify something for the fabrication crews.

TIG, your plugin makes Sketchup 2015 crash when there's lots of edges.

If you do it in smaller batches, does it succeed ?
Also have you tried Model Info > Statistics > Fix Problems... in case there's some corrupted geometry ?
Also, when you say 'crash' do you mean a BugSplat!, or does SketchUp just become unresponsive ?
In the latter case it should still complete, even if it takes a while... -
Thanks for creating this plugin. I had "lost" a group in a model and no matter what I did, I couldn't find it. There was no loose geometry and all components were in groups. I knew it was there when I copied and pasted from an older model and SU said there were two in the current model. This plugin saved me from brute forcing a solution or redoing a lot of work.

hi there,
with sketchup 2020 we now have isolate which is pretty cool...
and toggle visible active (whatever thats for - i have not found out what this is intended for so far) ...however, the su internal unhide command still does not unhide recursively all inside groups and components ...
so here is my humble request > make it possible to unhide all recursively except for softend edges
...often times edges are hidden inside groups or components on purpose and its bad when thhat information is lost due to a unhide all command...
maybe you can add a seperate command to this plugin
thx and all best, franz

...So you want to unhide everything including hidden edges or faces? What if there are intentionally hidden edges and faces that need to remain hidden?
