2D boolean might help for the deck. Although it may look simple here, in case where the deck is getting irregular shapes it can get tedious copy and adjusting planks. Then you could make use of the extrusion method.. There's a PDF on how to go about...
It may give you some other ideas.
Like Pixeros link, you may have to use multiple tools for this..
Same here on SU8. On both sides of the window.
If I hold down the mousebutton near border of window(at the right side where there's no tools)and do a mousemove/nudge it starts panning right sometimes.

I tried what you said jolran but I couldn't figure it out. How should I do it ?
unsuns, I meant this to be tried by Sam at developer-level. I havent dug in his script, so this suggestion was a shot in the dark.
@unknownuser said:
I wasn't. Another one of those things that is there but not a necessity so I just ignored it. Thanks for the suggestion.
Hope it helps.

Just don't "X" out of the WebDialog window, instead Right click in space or select any other tool. This will close the WebDialog window an unselect the Toolbar Icon.
Sam. I think you could try trigger some actions during the closing of the dialog with "X", using @yourdialog.set_on_close { #set closing action here }. If you are not already using it, that is.
As usual concerning webdialogs, I don't know how reliable that method is..
Ah, now I see. It wasent a video. Last "Gif", which seams to have cause some confusion from my part.
I say no more...
I meant Fredo's video about the stamp-boolean thing, double-sorry 
I can see how that got misinterpreted.. My english is not fluid sometimes.
Watching your video again, Sam. I clearly see you do the same thing. So thanks for the code 
You only have to do some fancy widgets now, and you are good to go!
This only works with Sketchup 2014/ Ruby 2, right ?
I havent followed along the Ruby 2 activities

I would avoid any spaces based alignment, because GUI is translated in few languages
Fine, then.
I would stick to IE=edge in the META. Or set specific version of IE.
I use D3.js and it wont launch otherwise since using CSS3 selectors/HTML5.. If you don't. Then you will have to include Sizzle or Html5 Shiv since any library dependent of CSS3 selectors need IE9(?) and up. For Mac don't know..

With Fredo on the job, I can stop wasting my time!!!!!!!!
Copy that! As Jack Bauer use to say.
BTW, looking at the video the response time seams to be pretty good. Does it work well with denser geometry ?
How the h&#l do you do that ?
@unknownuser said:
FYI using an inline STYLE attribute, kills the META "MSThemeCompatible" feature that is set in the HEAD section.
Really ? 
Did not know that. Yet another reason to avoid inline styling.
Dumb question: Do you know if it kills the META just for that particular element or just by using inline style once in the document everything is ruined, if you understand my question.
I mainly use classes because it's easier to switch styling just by toggling class on/off..
It's difficult to overide that if using inline style or ID selectors.
Even SVG text element ?
Ok.... you liked that hack dident you....How bout this one..

Padding with dummy characters with a dummy list item won't ever be able to accurately adjust the length.
Now since he is using style 250 px for the select element I naturally assumed he wanted that size. Spaces are acurate enough for that.. Wont work dynamically, has to be tested and nudged to liking, so in that sence not accurate..
Don't know the output from the select though. Pseudo element should not affect the value...
<option value='' disabled selected style='display;none;'>................Choose season.............</option>
Placeholder HACK 
You will have to do some testing in JS to eliminate this selected.
dialog.set_on_close { #do stuff here.. } ?

There might be performance to gain by using the second options argument disable_ui in model.start_operation.
Nothing slips thou past
@unknownuser said:
maybe some of the pros could look into some speed optimisations
Sam IS a pro.
I don't think there are massive gains to be made in that area. Adding, intersecting dense geometry within a Sketchup plugin IS a slow process. This has been discussed many times..
Maybe in 2014, things are better, I don't know, still on 8.
@unknownuser said:
I try to add the meta tags, but it still doesn't work.
Ah, to bad. That's the only "quick" solution I could think of..
I know nothing about NicEdit, can not comment on it's compability with Sketchup.
I assume you are aware of webdialog focus and issues trapping keyevents ?

Maybe have a peek into Aerilius different consols, if you wish to solve this sans JS library.
Can't have different color highlighting in a HTML text-inputfield though
BTW, this topic may get moved to the developper section...
Hi. Without testing any code... You might try attaching some meta tags to the HTML, if you havent done so.
Something like.(for windows only)
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="charset=UTF-8" />
<meta http-equiv="MSThemeCompatible" content="Yes" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge>
Your javascript library might require a later version of browser than what is automatically loaded from a default webdialog. I think it is reverted to IE8 ? Not lastest one installed.
