@billw said: Alas WxSU has not worked for a long time with Sketchup ... I would be more than happy if Trimble implemented something similar to wxsu. I looked into this recently. The issue is with WxWidgets (used by WxSU,) .. I think that the latest version for Ruby 2.x, is still unstable, and is not out of beta. (It might not even compile currently.) Even the old version has not been worked on in awhile. Another issue is that the top level window needs to be a WxWidgets class window, which the SketchUp app window is not. WxSU did a clunky "fix" by re-assigning the SketchUp app window to be a child window, of an invisible WxWdigets WxFrame. This can be done on Windows (at least XP,) but probably not on Mac.

Thanks both again I tried a different tack originally with an add_group/explode combo but TIG the instances option worked perfectly. Chris as I am disallowing component edit sessions for the time being and I am coding for SU 6 upwards, I will bear in mind Model.edit_transform for the future. BillW

Sounds like a plan to me!

That's a great idea, Bill. I've added it to the feature request list. Cheers,

HEY, this is Jessica here. Came across a problem with copies about assignment help[anchor= goto=https://wwww.globalassignmenthelp.com/ca/homework-help:8z1c7e1w]homework help Canada[/anchor:8z1c7e1w], I also help students to complete their homework and help to resolve assignment problem.

@danieldaniel73 said: Hi BillW... Have you found any solution on the parent!parent! issue? I need to call a custom attribute from the toplevel component to apply on my sub-sub- component. Hello Daniel, Currently, you are only allowed to reference attributes in the parent or in children. If you need a custom attribute of a grandparent to drive a formula inside a grandchild, you have to do it with two formulas instead of one. Inside the grandparent: CustomWidth = 10 Inside the parent: InheritedWidth = parent!CustomWidth Inside the child: MyWidth = parent!InheritedWidth The idea is for each component to live in its own little world, and have the list of what's configurable be dependent on the parent it's inside of. For example, if you were designing a set of cabinets, you may have a subcomp called "Drawer" that has 10 configurable options on it. But as soon as you nest that inside of a "Cabinet", you may choose to only create pulldowns for 3 of those (by wiring the drawer attributes to be driven by the cabinet's). At least, that's the vision. There are certainly ways that we can think of to make all of this easier, so please keep the feedback coming!

Without "include Math" statement (directly from Ruby's console or from any autoloaded plugin), it does not work here. With "Math included", it works fine. Marcio

@billw said: For Google Sketchup guys It would be nice if there was a way of clicking on the Component Options - image which could take you to a manufacturers web site. Perhaps a new parameter Form Design > URL Although, it looks like (from the docs) an URL can be embedded in the description/summary fields with <a href="http://www.google.com"> Yeah, that's the current path: add a link inside your description tag. In general, we didn't want to allow links on anything that doesn't look like a link, which is why the image isn't linkable. That being said, I've added your request to our feature list for discussion. A sidenote: since we pull the imageURL's image from your webserver, one could use this get a rough approximation of how many people are downloading your DCs from the 3dwarehouse and configuring them by watching your traffic logs. Cheers,

Thanks Todd I just checked the docs and I should have looked a bit closer rather than doing a straight copy. A bit of word blindness going on - my apologies.

Thanks Fredo6 I knew I had to work with loops but wasnt sure of what to do. I have now found an example of how to do this in Didier's double_rectangle.rb tool Thanks again
