Hi Tig,
thanks for your great help
got almost everything to work again.

I can't see an equivalent for Xray mode...
"Sketchup.send_action 10513" works just fine

one command resists :

Old
cmd = UI::Command.new("Layers") { Sketchup.send_action 21354 }
cmd.large_icon = "CD_ICONS/STANDARD/layers_lg.png"
cmd.small_icon = "CD_ICONS/STANDARD/layers_sm.png"
cmd.tooltip = cmd.status_bar_text = "Show Layers Palette"
gp_cd_standard_tb.add_item(cmd)

New
cmd = UI::Command.new("Layers") { Sketchup.send_action 21032 }
cmd.large_icon = "CD_ICONS/STANDARD/layers_lg.png"
cmd.small_icon = "CD_ICONS/STANDARD/layers_sm.png"
cmd.tooltip = cmd.status_bar_text = "Show Layers Palette"
gp_cd_standard_tb.add_item(cmd)

thanks again -
Uli

Hello Didier Bur,
I will try to sketch what I have in mind.
Do you have a mailbox to send you a rough idea for a tool description and some sketches ??

Hi,

Maybe you could try this
s4u Delete Instances Overlap
https://extensions.sketchup.com/extension/917ab3a8-bc9b-4b0e-a2ee-57fe0b48beee/s4u-delete-instances-overlap

The last update on that one appears to have been in 2013. The Ruby version has changed several times since then so it's not too surprising that it doesn't work. There are other grid tools that you could substitute. TIG has his Work Plane and there's the Grid Tool in the Extension Warehouse.

thanks to you all for your advice-
one more thing -
SU 2019 should be out soon. Is there ana chance that SU 2019 is going to be multithreaded ?

I don't think so. From all comments i've seen regarding this subject, they're trying to ignore multithreading as long as they can... maybe until 64-128 cores are mainstream, or 256? Here is a post from a few months ago https://forums.sketchup.com/t/su-layout-multi-core-rfi/63518/20

Hi Max,
I tried the updated Standard Toolbar "hide rest of the Model" as well as "Isolated/Restore Selected"tool work well excellent work.
Thanks a lot for looking into it - I appreciate

@pbacot...... WTF?

Good afternoon,

I have been working with a Leica Disto D510 Laser Trena for more than 7 years, carrying out bulk measurements. Do I need to know if there is any way to import Trena measurements straight to SketchUp, where I would already design these Angle and Tilt measurements? I currently use the Leica Transfer App to download measurements to an Excel spreadsheet, but I do not know how to import it into SketchUp. I read about the YUZU Plugin that does this work, but I can not find a download link anymore. If they can help thank you from the moment!

Hello Tig,
thanks for your recommendation to contact SU support.
They analyzed my Bugsplat Report and suggested to update my graphics Card Driver (NVIDIA Quadro 2000d). After Updated to Version 9.18.13.3250 the Problem is solved. 😄 😄
Thanks again
Uli

@tig said:

But didn't he suggest that the latest driver might be the culprit.

if I understood Ulis

@atelierpaar said:

I updated several times - but it doesn`t make any difference.

correct, the error message was already shown before the driver was updated. If not he may of course try rolling back to a working version.

thank you TIG, everything`s ok now,

Uli

I suspect you are XP.
I believe that all of the newer versions of Windows use the 'C:\ProgramData...' tree for the defaults... or the
'C:\Users\UserName\AppData...' path for the custom templates...

Yes, TIG, cheap company doesn't want to move to another operating system on the laptops. However, I was trying to show the method I used to find the files, by using a unique name and doing a search.

Hello again and thanks for your comments,
Elisei was right - some lines inside the group where on a different layer than the group itself.
After editing the lines towards the group layer, erasing worked as usual.
I don`remember to have a similar problem before.
Anyway, the layer status should have no influence, if a line is erasable or not.

thomthom , thanks for looking into it. I tried to reproduce this conflict but so far i wasn`t successful on this matter.
I will post the model, as soon as I have a similar case
Thanks again,
Uli

Here maybe?
http://sketchucation.ourtoolbar.com/

Note however that it was created for the old system and if it is dependant on certain links or RSS feeds, they may be broken now.

There has been other pressure for a native STL export tool - the last I heard was Google are thinking about it...
There are some third-party STL export tools that do work quite well, once you have your manifold solid.

Isn't the "reset workspace" inside the "preferences" window?

Have you tried re-installing it?

You can do that but if you need to fiddle around anyway, why not just do it once?
