Hi,

I did not find a way to save my presets I already manage, like the one for pillows, an other for curtains ...
If I stay on my sketchup drawing file I have my saved presets ok. But if I draw a cloth on an other sketchup file impossible to retrieve my clothworks presets.
Do I miss something ? Will it be possible to manage them as personal datas we can share and use where we want ?
thanks

Thanks for your reply.
I finally use classification ( an ifc one ) for components and put all my parameters on it ( ref, name, details ... ). That allow me to avoid the "instance" use and exploit my component definition on layout drawings notes ( on that case it is for electrical draw with a lot of repeated references/details ).

regards

is there a function I can use to always refer attributes to definitions of the component and not individual instance ?

Hi,
sorry I am not understanding how to associate the attribute with the component definition not the instance, can you explain please
thanks

Hello,

I try to find a solution to automatically update all the attributes ( like name, summary, itemcode … ) for the same duplicate component.

An exemple to be clear,
I draw a « pencil » and create a component.
on the attributes I write « pencil » for component attribute « name » and « blue » on « summary »
I duplicate this component 10 times.
After, I select one and I change « summary » writing « black » instead of « blue » because I decide to change the pencil color.
If I select an other component, the « summary » case still show « blue » instead of « black » …
I try to save my good component ( the « black » one ) and I reload it … my attributes are not changing …

I made a lot of research on the net and test some plugins … but impossible to find a solution …
I hope I am enough clear ( i’m french )

Thank you for your help

Jeff,
I have try to shrink the palette, but does respond for me (still same problem).

However, I change the plugins folder as mention, and try out the roundcorner plugin. I still have the problem, but it responds a little more better.

First improvement, we are on the good way -)

Thanks julien

Fredo,

1. Your other plugin such as Tools On Surface work fine (I just download and test the last version of Tools on Surface)
2. Yes, the progress bar is working normally (As soon as I execute the operation, progress bar works and quickly). The difficult and laggy thing is to launch the operation.
3. Not a real crash, my commands doesn't respond until sketchup come back to normal.

Hope it helps
thanks

Hi Fredo,
First congratulation for this plugin (very usefull).
I will try to explain my problem clearly in English (i am french native)
To be more explicit:
I have made some tries with complex and very simple models (simple cube), the problem is exactly the same.
(I might think that the problem come from the ToolBar display, but I am not expert).

• When I launch the tool, sketchup became lagy (almost freezing) and the toolbar make long time to appear (minimum 20 seconds).
• It is mostly impossible to change the parameters on the tool bar (take 1, 2, 3 minutes to respond). I also try to change the settings with the Sketchup toolbar (the one at the right bottom) and the problem is still the same.
• The probleme is the same if I want to select an edge.
• If i do not change parameters (avoiding me 5 to 10 minutes of waiting), I can validate the action and Sketchup does the round corner. But it is also very laggy (2 to 3 minutes between my click and the corner drawing).

To resume, Sketchup become really lagy as soon as I launch the round corner tools.

The strangest thing is that when I use the round corner, not only sketchup freeze but my whole mac interface.

I hope my explanations are clear.

Thanks for your help,
Julien

Dear All,
I recently update to sketchup 8, get the last fredo lib (3.4c) and the last roundcorner plugin.
I also change windows to mac os.
I have tried roundcorner plugin on sketchup 7 on windows (work fine), sketchup 7 and 8 on Mac (just crash or really lagy).
Any idea for this problem?

I am using Mac os 10.6

Thank for reply,
