I've used (quite successfully) the Layers and Materials plugins (thanks!) but I was wondering if there's a way to get the layers properties to be assigned to the Materials properties from which they were created?

Do you mean like converting Vray materials to say Thea?

Exactly or vice versa... Podium<->Twilight<->Vray<->Thea etc. It would also be nice if Trimble added some basic specular and bump parameters which all renderers would tie into.

Now that Sketchup has several plugin Rendering applications, I was wondering if anyone had created a macro that would convert the Material parameters of one application to one. I often see content that has had rendering parameters assigned for a specific renderer but it would be nice to use those parameters in another rendering application...

TIA!

I've been with SU since nearly day one, but new to Ruby.

I'm trying simply to create geometry based on points from selected geometry. I know how to parse through select objects, but can't seem to figure out how to extract the Start and End points of a selected Edge. Not sure this is the correct subforum for this. TIA!
