@alvis Anyway, a very promising thing that does not require complex settings. A few more of my attempts )

Hey @alvis
That's a great start!

Great to hear!

That's not good. Do you remember the steps that triggered this? It would be a great help to fix this bug!
Cheers,
ThomasYes, sometimes crashes to save image and always crashes File/Setting (sketchup 22 -24)

Bounding box dim
I would like some help. There is a mistake in my code. I would like the Z axis dimension of the bounding box to be on the back left side.
# add_dimensions.rb # Ensure we are running this within the SketchUp environment if !defined?(Sketchup) raise "This script must be run within SketchUp." end module AddDimensionsPlugin extend self def add_dimensions # Check if there is an active model model = Sketchup.active_model if model.nil? raise "No active model found." end # Check if there is a selection selection = model.selection if selection.empty? raise "No selection found. Please select a component." end # Ensure the selection is a component instance component_instance = selection.first unless component_instance.is_a?(Sketchup::ComponentInstance) raise "Selected entity is not a component instance." end # Start an operation to allow for a single undo model.start_operation('Add Dimensions', true) begin # Get the component's bounding box bounding_box = component_instance.bounds # Define the length of the dimension arrow arrow_length = 10.cm # Create a method to add dimensions def add_dimension(entities, start_point, end_point, offset_vector) dim = entities.add_dimension_linear(start_point, end_point, offset_vector) dim.material = "black" dim end # Get the transformation of the component instance transformation = component_instance.transformation # Transform bounding box points to the component's local coordinates points = { x_min: bounding_box.corner(0).transform(transformation.inverse), x_max: bounding_box.corner(1).transform(transformation.inverse), y_min: bounding_box.corner(0).transform(transformation.inverse), y_max: bounding_box.corner(3).transform(transformation.inverse), z_min: bounding_box.corner(0).transform(transformation.inverse), z_max: bounding_box.corner(4).transform(transformation.inverse) } # Enter the component editing context model.active_entities.add_group(component_instance).explode component_definition = component_instance.definition entities = component_definition.entities # Create dimensions along X axis start_point = points[:x_min] end_point = points[:x_max] offset_vector = [0, -arrow_length, 0] add_dimension(entities, start_point, end_point, offset_vector) # Create dimensions along Y axis start_point = points[:y_min] end_point = points[:y_max] offset_vector = [-arrow_length, 0, 0] add_dimension(entities, start_point, end_point, offset_vector) # Create dimensions along Z axis with a larger offset start_point = points[:z_min] end_point = points[:z_max] offset_vector = [0, -arrow_length, 0] add_dimension(entities, start_point, end_point, offset_vector) # Commit the operation model.commit_operation # Notify the user that dimensions have been added UI.messagebox("Dimensions added inside the selected component.") rescue Exception => e # Abort the operation in case of an error model.abort_operation # Show an error message UI.messagebox("An error occurred: #{e.message}") end end unless file_loaded?(__FILE__) UI.menu('Plugins').add_item('Add Dimensions to Component') { add_dimensions } file_loaded(__FILE__) end end

RE: Pluginstore window, I can't log in
If I opening the link in a old IE window (right click "here"), I can sign in. Of course, everything works, just I can't install plugins directly
