Thanks to Driven and Dan.
I will use new notation instead use force_encoding. I think now it should works...

#UUID in RUBY 2.0 WINDOWS
` cmd="wmic csproduct get uuid"
filename = File.join(ENV["TMP"],"backquote.out")

exec_string = "`" + cmd + " > " + filename + "`" exec_string.gsub! '\\', '/' eval("#{exec_string}") uuid="" open(filename, "r:BOM|utf-16le:UTF-8") do |io| uuid = io.read end`

So you are a victim ! 😞

I assume if I were to click on the 'buy' button it wouldn't pay you one cent !

Complain to them directly.

They are blatantly stealing.

If they sell a product without its author's permission, and don't pass on the money it's plain wrong !

Also complain directly to Trimble.

If they do not have an agreement to sell SketchUp in Poland then Trimble will take a dim view of this.

If they do have an agreement to sell SketchUp in Poland then Trimble will take an even dimmer view of them pirating other related products.

If they are based in the EU [Poland?] then they ought to be subject to some laws about 'counterfeiting' etc 😲

Command key (⌘) + P does not work in MAC OS webdialog for unknown reason. I will add a button with window.print() to the webdialog.

This looks very interesting...Thank you both!

It's not actually getting the info that's slow. It's setting it.

When I ran the test it took ~11sec to run.

When I removed info["ShadowTime"]+=600 it took ~0.15sec to run.
That's why I hoped using start_operation would help - but alas. But at least, when you do this, ensure that Shadows are not on in SketchUp.

What you can't do via 'SU as Server' is Download or Upload local content. [that's what broke set_html if html = local_file.img]

Is this local content still broken on Safari ??

Yes. 😞

Downloaded but can not find the toolbar. There is no listing in the extension check box.

Thanks for the plugin. I just need to find it.

I thought I was doing something wrong.
Then, I don't worry about this discrepancy.

Thanks Tig

In this link I found people worried for the same.

I've attached a simple plugin to rotate to green +Y default and set solar north to 0. (I need it for my skelion plugin)
After rotate the model, you can restore the model if you want export to Google Earth.
The plugin only works in SU8

Not sure if this has already been asked. Is there any way of calculating real-world shading losses via the Report option for string-connected panels please?

At present if I have a string of 8 panels and one gets shaded, it seems to only calculate the losses in that one panel. In reality all 8 panels will lose power unless optimizers or microinverters are in use.

It would also be good if it recognised split-cell panels, and allowed for the fact that they can still produce power from the top half if the bottom half is shaded (portrait mode).
