      @LinearGraphs I meant parameters of the palette, in palette properties.

      @LinearGraphs You are not doing anything wrong; this happens sometimes.
      Change the parameters 2-3 times, and then everything should be back to normal.

    • RE: [Plugin] Draw Boundingbox

      @AISmebel That one is usefull.!
      I was talking about corners of the Boundinbox - even the original version adds 3 guide points at every corner, I'm sure that is an error.

    • RE: [Plugin] Draw Boundingbox

      @AISmebel Thank you.! It works.
      But all versions add 3 Guide Points at every corner, which is useless.

    • RE: [Plugin] Draw Boundingbox

      @panixia Everything you wrote is much too much for me.!
      I usually don't do things that i don't fully understand, and right now i have personal reasons for which I can't afford to explore unknowns.!

      Bounding Box doesn't need to be inside, but I've seen that Anchor Points do it this way.......
      But grouping it and putting it in a separate tag would be very nice.

    • RE: [Plugin] Draw Boundingbox

      @AISmebel Will you please tell me how you add the option to move the "Bounding box" to a separate layer.!!
      Anchor Points extension does that, but this one is more useful, and all the time i was thinking that it would be better if this one could move the bounding box to a separate layer (and maybe also group the Bounding Box, so you can easily separate later and delete it, or - like Anchor Points - at least put it inside the group/components so you can easily delete it later...).

      Thank you.!

    • RE: [REQ] PDF Importer

      This one is no longer available on their website, so I thought that the information should not be lost; it works only up until SU2023 (inclusive).
      It imports raster and vector.pdf2skp_23 Softtech_EinsteinConcept.zip
      I apologize if i made a mistake by uploading an executable in this forum.

    • RE: [Plugin] Zero Tilt Camera

      Finally, i think i figured it out - the best description for this one is "perspective perpendicular center view", i used it a lot through the first button of Curic Align View, and now through Dezmo Dice "center (front, left, right, back) view".
      Somebody please tell me if I'm wrong.!
      It is very useful, and in SketchUp, there is no way that you can manually and precisely achieve this.

    • RE: Undo history list

      Yes, there is one with a visual history - Samuel Tallet visual_history
      But, in my experience, it requires some solid CPU...

    • RE: [Plugin] Quick selection

      This extension is very useful, with an exception - by default, it selects hidden objects and tags, and there is no way to change that behaviour.

    • RE: Sketchucation Tools 5.0.5

      Starting with version 5, the third button opens the default SketchUp Extension manager, so there is no way to create sets and manage.
      The second and the third buttons always showed different packages (plugins and extensions), now you end up with the default SketchUp windows.
      Maybe this was intentional... or maybe not - i just pointed out.

    • RE: [Plugin] LordOfTheToolbars - v2.9c - 20 Dec 24

      I ended up using palettes as toolbars, only because regular toolbars created with LOTT, if undocked, all end up vertically when you restart SketchUp.
      But then i realized that palettes are nicer and cleaner as toolbars, than regular toolbars...

    • RE: [Plugin] FredoSection - v1.5c - 30 Jan 26

      Well, at first i didn't want to bother you with my answer, but then i said this may help improve extensions and SketchUp.
      "at all" means nothing.!
      First time it worked well, till the end, but i was just playing and testing...
      But then, you see the mouse taking the commands from the toolbar, the prompt is correct, and nothing happens, nothing in your model/objects, the "gizmo" that Fredo created is visible, but it doesn't do nothing, sometimes you just have to open a new file, or restart SU, and it works again, but most of the times... DON'T work that way either (and the last version is totally null).

      This extension is a true spectacle that Fredo created, but i wouldn't use it, even when it will work, and i will tell you why.
      This idea of coipes over copies over copies is a very bad one, Sim Joubert tried it first (with his Sectionbox), and his plugin works every time, except when you have more than one scene πŸ˜€
      I once had a 2-room kitchen furniture, each room with about 10 meters length of furniture, and all the doors had very complex profiles, everything visible was complex profiled.
      Bottom line - at the end, i couldn't believe that by opening model info, i saw millions of entities, in only 2 rooms of furniture.
      I dont even wanna try to imagine what would happen if i open that model, and create sections with Sectionbox, or FredoSection.
      At first i thoughtt that this is the only way (copies over copies...), until i bought Curic Boxview - i don't know what this guy did (because is totally counteintutitive.!), but the model is clean, this extension doesn't create any extra geometry, only a hidden group of sections, and it works easy and simple, every single time, and works in scenes...

    • RE: [Plugin]Unique colors for layers

      Maybe somebody will still see this one and will answer.!
      This plugin is unique (at least i didn't find another one), the only issue is that in SU23-26 the icons are not referenced in the toolbar.
      Maybe there is a quick fix for this one...!
      Thanks.!

    • RE: [Plugin] FredoSection - v1.5c - 30 Jan 26

      @Neodimium Fredo Section is the most advanced and complete tool for sections in SketchUp, but... it is almost unusable at this time - one time works (barely), and 3 times doesn't work... at all...
      It still needs a lot of work.!

      There is no reliable way to set more than 20 columns per palette, fixed (non-scrollable).

    • RE: [Plugin] LordOfTheToolbars - v2.9c - 20 Dec 24

      There is a very old bug, the Vignette Stripe doesn't stay where you put it - after SU restart, it will reset its position to the default, whether you lock it or not, it will do the same thing.

      And another one (but i think this one may not have a solution), i have two Favorites Palettes that i use in compact mode as toolbars (horizontal stripes, permanently open), every time you minimize and maximize the SU window, these Palettes navigate about 1-2 mm to the left, until eventually you have to move them back..., and so on.
      Also, the same behaviour if they are locked or unlocked.

      I use mainly SU 2023, in W11.
      None of this happened in SU 2022 (and SU 2023), before the LOTT update to be fully compatible with SU 2024.
