Hi all,
My latest plugin Windows Builder is now active on the Extensions Warehouse:
http://extensions.sketchup.com/en/node/6841
Below you can see some of its features:

Enjoy!

@ SU2024 and Door-Lintel users:

Hi,
I don't have SU2024 installed on my PC.
Maybe some developer (TIG ?) will update the plugin ?
So here it is.

@MartinGr :

This one will perhaps be useful to you:

@Koffi

You can get it here: https://extensions.sketchup.com/extension/381166fa-6fe4-4b07-9303-5ff922533bfa/windows-builder

@pipinek and freeagent:

Hi,
Take a look at this: https://sketchucation.com/plugin/1284-dbur_ucsmanager_v1_0_0
Basically it's an 'axes manager' but besides that the 6 views can be changed absolute to the main axes or relatively to your custom set of axes.

Hi,

You can also take a look at this post: https://sketchucation.com/plugin/2667-componentsplus
There is a command in this plugin to export all groups as components in one go.
Regards,

Hi AISMebel,

Below is what you can do:
Browse your disk to your Plugins folder to find a sub-folder named 'tt_draw_bb'

• open the file 'core.rb' in that folder (using a'pure' text editor)
• find line #118
• add the following line:

ents.add_cpoint( Geom;;Point3d.linear_combination(0.5, face[0], 0.5, face[1]))

• save the core.rb file and restart SketchUp.

Hi syahirXIII,

The message shown on your image pops up when the reveal's face loop is made of more than 4 edges.
Please check if this is the case on the face that doesn't work.
Regards

Hi all,

I've gathered 6 utilities together in this plugin to add tools to the groups and components functionalities, especially a 'search component' dialog that is handy when you are dealing with hundreds of components definitions.

PluginStore page here: https://sketchucation.com/plugin/2667-componentsplus

Enjoy

Hi,

Mr Hide by Fredo6 is all what you need (and more, I guess)

Hi, me again,

Here is an enhanced version with which you can select your color in a list.
Menu can still be found in the 'Extensions' menu but I've put the 3 options in a sub-menu to spare your menu space
Hope Thomthom won't mind if I modified his script.
