    • RE: Create a Button for a Plug-in

      Thank you TIG.

      This is the one I was looking for.
      I tried the search function but finally decided to just try asking. I guess I was just not typing in the correct search criteria.

      Thank you again and I am sorry if I violated protocol.

    • Create a Button for a Plug-in

      Some time back, I believe it was TIG that had a thread where a button for a plugin was created. I had several buttons on my previous installation of SU but a hard drive fatality left me no choice but to re-install Sketchup and I lost the instructions how to create a button.

      Can anyone point me to a place where I can create a Button for the Weld Plug-in and the Mirror.rb?????

      Thanks in advance for any assistance that may come my direction.

    • Help using 2D tools

      I have not been able to make a fillet on any of the lines I have been drawing. I know I must be doing something wrong because the fillet tool extends or trims the lines fine when I select the fillet tool.

      What I do is create two lines using the 2D line tool with one line being perpendicular to the other. I then select the fillet tool and set the radius to a non-zero value that falls between the dimensions of the lines. When I click on line 1 the line highlights to blue, the radius goes to zero, and I change it back to the value I need and the prompt says to select line 2. When I do that the fillet does not happen and the radius always goes to zero. Is it not possible to enter a radius value in inches or mm and I must use a value like 100? When I select line 1 the guide point for the arc/fillet does not show up either like the documentation says it should. It also does not chamfer the lines if I try that too. This is the only one of the 2D tools I cannot get to work and I would really like to have this be functional so I can CAD in Sketchup. TIG??????

    • Dimensions in Decimal form

      I have looked at all the templates and all placees I can think of, and cannot find a preference setting for dimensioning output.

      I would like to have the dimensions read out in decimals instead of fractions. Is there a way to do this in imperial style? i.e. 1.50 instead of 1 1/2.....

      Thanks to all.
