    • RE: Medeek Wall Plugin

      1.) Since we can enter wall lengths as feet and inches while drawing can we please have the wall length editable in same format? TIA
      Wall length request in ft. & inch

      2.)Are there any unforeseen/adverse effects of moving a wall using the native SU move tool?
      (Realizing using the Medeek wall move tool will auto-heal/move existing walls if attached in a way they will follow/heal.)
      But for other circumstances where this is not the case.

      There definitely is an issue with the stud spacing algorithm, this time the bays worked but as you can see the outside corner didn't.

      Edit the connecting walls in question and make sure the corner settings are correct.
      I am on iPad now so no access to correct terminology from within plug-in.......but it should be corner of course and not T

      Edit:
      Also double ck walls as to their respective elevations & ht’s. (same/same)

    • RE: Medeek Wall Plugin

      Nathaniel,
      I had some time today to try your wall plug-in.
      It appears to install just fine,(as admin/restart SU) but I have been unable to get it to function.
      All of the menus appear, and when I select the draw wall icon.....set wall parameters....click OK......attempt to draw wall....nothing happens....no indication from cursor....no snap point highlight or wireframe of wall appear.

      Perhaps this is a MS Windows 7 Pro limitation and/or an IE V11 thing? (see my machine spec's in sig.)

      Sorry to trouble you with this as I know you are incredibly busy......but figured if this is an MS/OS limitation maybe it should be posted here. (or further a compatibility note on download page)

      Thanks for your time.

      Edit:
      I have what I believe is the latest version. (June 6th)
      & License type is TRIAL and the text is green.

    • Viewport info tag (no print)

      Would be really handy sometimes if the LO viewports displayed the associated SU scene name and if "modified" somewhere within the LO VP frame (info would be "no print" text of course)

    • RE: SU turns off every 5 minutes

      Are you opening the same 2015 file in all instances of SU “shutting down”.

      Describe shutting down in more detail:
      Does SU simply close without any message/error?
      Is there a bugsplat?
      Does it freeze for a while and then close?
      Etc.Etc.

      Have you tried turning off auto-save?

      The more detailed info you provide....the better the help you will receive.

    • RE: Hybrid & Vector Fail to Render XS

      @dave r said:

      I believe there is a known bug related to this and I think the LO team is working on it. Until it gets fixed I would suggest using TIG's Section Cut Face instead of the Section Fill.
      [attachment=0:gsx0983f]<!-- ia0 -->Screenshot - 4_19_2018 , 10_27_54 AM.png<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:gsx0983f]

      Thanks for having a look at this Dave.

      I have historically used TIG’s section cut face (& still do w/more complex cuts)......but with the SU 2018 new section fill and this being a “simple” drawing I used that feature instead.

      Didn’t even occur to me to check that for being the cause........anyhow.......now I am aware......so thanks again for that.

    • RE: Hybrid &amp; Vector Fail to Render XS

      Uploading LO file for anyone that would like to see if same behavior exhibits as in above mentioned.

      Change either of the upper right viewports to Hybrid or Vector, and see if the viewport renders properly.

      Thanks,
      Charlie

      His blog appears to have stopped four years ago.
      I sent him a PM but I'm not optimistic that he will reply.
      If anyone could share the rbz or has an alternate extension I would sincerely appreciate it. Without this plugin, the cleanup work on previous scenes is so painful.

      I found this as an alternative.......***but have not tried it out!

      Link Preview Image
      Layers Management Tool

      favicon

      (www.srww.com)

      It appears to do the same and more......I plan on trying it out myself tomorrow.....should you try it out please report back here.

    • RE: Where did my autosaves go?

      Edson,
      I could be wrong about this, but my understanding of autosave files is they exit only until you save the file manually. (While working or on exit)
      So, if for some reason you had to force shutdown there would be an autosave file within the last 5 minute interval. (Per your preferences)

      And, therefore you would see only one autosave file in the same folder as your .skp drawing file.

      PS: I think you can test this by having SU and your destination folder open on same screen, let SU autosave and you will see the autosave file, then manually save your file and the autosave file should disappear.

      Have you tried looking in previous installation(s) Plugins folder? (& just bring it forward to 2018)
      Local installation search for it? (add_hidden_layer.rb)
