@jim said: Is it a possibility that extensions written independently by different authors inadvertently use the same Extension name? Of course they can, if they choose a simple name like "Cylinder" and do not set a version string, or everyone starts out with "1.0.0".. then yes they can conflict. Authors should use unique names, like: "Foltz: Cylinder", and use a proper version string. @unknownuser said: Would that mean that only the last loaded extension would be available? Sketchup decides whether to load (or not to load,) extensions, based upon a concatination of the name and version string. (Check the registry and you'll see what I mean.)

I have "View on Google Docs" as right click choice on FF. Did I load this feature? Anyway I use it a lot to look a pdf's instead of DL.

@unknownuser said: sort of off topic but.. when lion is released this month, the user library is hidden by default.. pretty much anything messing with the user library is going to become more complicated to describe to other users as there's going to be an extra instruction needed to explain how to unhide it or how to find it.. Well.. not really off topic... this has become a continuation of anothor thread (also started by Jim I think, titled something like, "Where to store user files" or similar.) In that thread I explained that Windows has hidden (maybe since Win95?) the user's %AppData% path. I can see it because I always go into the File Settings and set show all files types and file extensions. (What can I say... geeky as charged.) Weird that OSX gets more like Windows.. and Windows is now built upon a Linux core.

So mashing up your note from above... [image: chart?chst=d_fnote_title&chld=sticky_y%7C1%7C%7Ch%7CSCF%20Meeting%7C1%20PM] [img]http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chst=d_fnote_title&chld=sticky_y|1||h|SCF Meeting|1 PM[/img] That IS neat!

@jim said: Hi David, I put it up on GitHub. Thanks!! I'll check it out this weekend. David

I guess it can not be done due to security reasons. It's not a big deal since I can open the bookmark as a Sidebar in FF, I just thought I could simulate the Sidebar across different browsers.

Access to layer colors is very limited [I wrote a way of getting them from a DXF export but it's pretty lame]... AdamB did come up with a 'possible' solution that never got finalized....

thank you a lots

That looks like the adapive degrading's boundingbox. I think I've seen that as well on occasions when it occurs. Doesn't seem to adhere to the Hide Rest of Model setting.

I don't find a specific forum for discussing Advanced Camera Tools (here or at Googlegroups.) If SCF had a forum, where would it be put ? .. under Extensions & Applications Discussions or under SketchUp Discussions

This freeware http://www.linxexplorer.com/colorpicker.html lets you pick colors off any screen pixel...

@dale said: @mike lucey said: ...... looks interesting Jim Will keep it in mind when I have some design work for a nudist colony Of course, that would require a lot of research of existing colonies I assume (Due Diligence) Yeah Dale ..... I imagine it would. If you hear of any jobs going in this area, please let me know as I would be very reasonable on the fees

@cgsipaul said: I downloaded LibFredo6 3.6b and Curviloft 1.1a. Using SketchUP 8 on a Mac OS 10. Loaded the plug-ins into the Library-Applications-SketchUp-Plug-Ins folder. Restarted computer and application, but I do not see any reference to the plug-in. What am I doing wrong? Extract it to a different folder then move it to the Sketch Up plugins folder. This worked for me.

@dan rathbun said: And by the way... in the same list, you can eliminate the thumbs.db file if you check "Do not cache thumbnails" Yeah, but it's slow enough when I hit a folder with a lot of files in it. Caching thumbnails is speedier for me.

Well, it wasn't mover2, and it's still not resolved. Will check SketchyPhysics, thanks.

@driven said: all the shortcut keys, SU and system just carry on working and don't register in the console at all, here at least The DELETE key registered "onKeyUp : Key code: 46 ( VK_DELETE )" in the Console (on my PC,) and deleted the selected face. It seems weird that keys would bubble up from a Tool instance keytrap callback. I can see having a bubble method that allows passing the key up to Sketchup, but to do it all the time?

@driven said: jim, thom you can edit the nibs on NSPanels, and I guess you could change the content if you know all the tool codes... [attachment=0:1e21rm0n]<!-- ia0 -->tool palettes .jpg<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:1e21rm0n] john hi i want this can you show me how?
