A PolygonMesh object is not geometry like Faces and Edges are. It is simply a convenient data container for points and "polygons."
The points are Sketchup Point3D objects.
The "polygons" are Arrays of Integers representing the indices of the Point3d objects. The polygon arrays have 3 elements (are triangles.) A negative index means the Edge between the points is hidden (soft/smooth.)
To construct the Mesh as geometry, you need to use Entities.add_faces_from_mesh or Entities.fill_from_mesh.
Just a heads-up that Google Code hosting will be gone by the end of 2016. I know a few people had some repositories hosted there in the early days.
Google code has added a button to repositories which exports projects to Github.

It just means there is not enough room on the right of the screen to open the menu.
Hi John,
LenX is a size, but you said "move" and position which is a little confusing. Do you want to have the component snap to a position, or snap to a length when scaled?
If you want the position to snap to a grid, you would use the X, Y, or Z attribute.
Maybe:
X: =floor(current("X"), 600)

it's reloading the component from file every time
Why do you reload it every time? Maybe that is why the definition is reset. You should load the component into the DefinitionList just once.

Yes it is - I will post to the Store soon. Thanks for the prod.
This plugin needs an audit. It is well-meant, although careless compilation of code.
You could add the folder back and then remove it from favorites, and delete the folder again.

Exceptional exporter! I can actually import models into Zbrush from SketchUp without them being almot completely unusable. Thank you!
Hehe, cool! I'm happy you found it useful. Thanks for the feedback.
I found myself frequently turning to the Ruby Console for making anything more than simple selections.
So I made a sel command, and now in the Ruby Console I can type things like:
sel ;all
sel ;edges
sel ;faces
sel ;groups
sel 0 [or ;none or ;clear]
sel ;cons
sel ;invert
etc.
Quite efficient. It's too hackish to share at the moment. I'll try to remember to fix it up and post it.

can you leave out the dated css??

At some point. Can you help? Do you do Bitbucket/git?
Here is version 2.1.
I am not sure how to handle distribution. I am unable to put it in the Plugins Store under Martin's name. That would make it harder to do further updates. I could post it under my plugins, but not sure if it would cause much confusion.
If you are to allow html in the Extensions manager, maybe open the links in the default browser.
Martin gave me the ok to update this for Sketchup 14/15. I might not have time until the weekend.
The right click blocking is done explicitly in ui.js file.
Maybe this?

Edit: It looks more like an exporter than in importer.

Jim, are you trying to scare me?
Thanks!
Not very scary.
cam_dir = Sketchup.active_model.active_view.camera.direction
if cam_dir.samedirection?(Y_AXIS)
# Front
elsif cam_dir.samedirection?(Y_AXIS.reverse)
# Back
elsif cam_dir.samedirection?(X_AXIS)
# Left
elsif cam_dir.samedirection?(X_AXIS.reverse)
# Right
elsif cam_dir.samedirection?(Z_AXIS)
# Bottom
elsif cam_dir.samedirection?(Z_AXIS.reverse)
# Top
else
# Not aligned to Std View
end
I like Camera#direction - it's more clear than zaxis.
Vector3d#parallel? and Vector3d#samedirection? might be better than == since they consider tolerance.
