[Plugin] Layer Manager New Release

[yaza]

Architecte enseignant aussi, mon outil de predilection etant SU et Podium, j'ai laisse aux autres les divers autocad revit et archicad.
Un grand merci, je me demandais s'il n'etait pas possible de povoir gerer les layers a la facon de archicad. Tu l'as fais. Bravo

I know you want to protect your work, and I certainly agree with that position, but did you mean to make the PDF file unprintable? I have a note book filled with directions on using scripts, and this particular script will not print.

Thanks for the script and thanks in advance for your reply.

Hey didier, first of all great work! it really saves me alot of time.

I have many groups within groups within groups in a model I'm working on, is there a way to move a selection to current layer that digs into groups/subgroups and moves every line/face along with it?

this would save me a whole lot of tedious work.

thanks again for the freeware.

No... But you may take a look at TIG's defaults2layers.rb recently published. It can help you a bit.

Curious problem on my Macs (work and home): The Layer Manager toolbar does not appear automatically. Each time I open SU7 I have to go to View/Tool Palettes and click on Layer Manager. Sort of a nuisance, but Layer Manager is a major player for me in SU.

Is this normal or do I have a problem?

[banhdau]

thanks

can someone post a screenshot or two of this layer manager. i'd like to see it before i decide whether to rearrange my toolbars.

[Bob James]

Layer Manager is one of my top-usage plug-ins: especially the "all layers invisible except current" (the one with the red dot) and "all layers visible" (the one with the green dot).
Didier has just released a new version that "remembers" the state of the toolbar so you don't have to keep opening it.

Very useful (at least for me).

Really? Do you care to share where I can get it from?

Workaround:
Open the main rb file with a texte editor,
go to line 160
type: layers_tb.show
save the rb file

the end of file must look like:

layers_tb.add_item(cmd10)
layers_tb.show
# End of load
$layer_manager_menu_loaded = true
end
file_loaded("fr_layer_manager_extension_v6.rb")

restart SU, you're done.

Ok, workaround works fine on my Mac.!

Now is there also one for the Main toolbar on top? Icons do not stick there either.

merci beaucoup.

updt: I tried to find one plugin that would do it to see how it was done. But it seems like it's a real problem since not one of my plugins can keep its icons up there. Be it LightUP, Subd&Smooth, JPP, Tools-on-Surface or BezierSpline.
