Sketchup waybe

Jim

Has anyone heard of sketchup waybe plugin? I saw 2 examples on youtube but have not been able to get anymore information on this plugin .

No idea, fpalumbo. What's a waybe? How about a link to the videos?

I see it too and looks great...
There are 4 videos showing how works:

It´s like having pepakura inside SketchUp.
It´s a unfold tool.

Hey Jim, you have an unfold ruby, too, don't you?

Yes, but waybe appears to be more sophisticated - automatically unfolding and adding glue tabs. Mine is manually operated (video by Dave R): http://www.brightcove.tv/title.jsp?title=1114268312

Yes, I know that. It was only the "coincidence". And yes indeed, quite sophisticated.

Julius

and where's the plugin?

Gaieus

If you mean Jim's unfold tool, it is here.

BTW what is this thread doing in the SketchyPhysics subforum?
Well, I'm moving it...

Julius

thank you, i will install jim's. however i meant "waybe".

I spent a while browsing trying to find if the 'waybe' script was available somewhere. I think I found the blog of its creator (same name, same age, clearly smart enough) but I can't be sure. No mention of SkechUp, Ruby, 3d, or 'Waybe' on his blog.

If you'd like to see this script surface the best bet is probably to leave a comment at the YouTube videos.

No Remus,

That's Jim's blog there that we have talked about above already.

EDIT:ignore that please, that just links to jims ruby.

At first I thought "Wehby" might have something to do with this, but I think I'm wrong.

Odd that there appear to be no links to Wheby, even if it's just more information

After doing an extensive Google search I am beginning to believe that this plugin does not exist. I have been trying different ways to make a Sketchup video to satisfy myself that a video could be made that illustrates the same functions.

Don’t want to cast a sour note, but I can not believe that this plugin exist and there is absolutely no information about the plugin.

However, I am hoping that I am wrong, because this is a plugin I could use.
