    • RE: [Code] layer-color= v1.2

      I recently noticed that the colours "randomly" assigned to the layers consist of just a handfull of colours and not really random ones. Which left my model with a bunch of geometry in the same colour.

      I have a question on how this plugin (which seems to be the root of resolving my problem) works from the inside. I'm a bit worried on how does it work on heavy models.

      Does it export everything to a dxf (including geometry) and import it back or does it just export and import empty dxf with layer information!?

      EDIT

      I'm also getting an ugly

      Error; #<NameError; undefined local variable or method `definition1_attrdicts' for #<Sketchup;;Layer;0x13919c30>>
      C;/PROGRA~2/Google/GOOGLE~2/Plugins/layer-color=.rb;120;in `color='
      

      Any thoughts?

      POST-EDIT
      Removing the "definition1_" from line 120 seems to have solved the problem. Since it would take me hell long to go through all Jim's script and see if that change affects something else, i'll leave that to him. But it's working fairly good here. πŸ‘

      Indeed, i realise the crossing is a bit of a problem. However, i separated them all in groups (which is basically double clic and group, being a fairly easy task) so i guess that wouldn't get much in the way.

      That wouldn't be much of a problem. There's a pretty good Make Face plugin around (i don't remember who wrote it, though).

      I'm having some difficulties in using that Simplify thingy i've found as it uses angles to do the dirty job and not the neat Rammer-Douglas_Peucker algorhithm. πŸ˜•

      Hey thom!

      I wonder if the simplify curve bit work with closed curves or even surfaces. I find myself in a position in which i imported geometry from a DWG and it left me with some insanely segmented edges. I'm trying to find a method to simplify this thing which complies with the Human Rights.

      I've uploaded a small sample to make it clearer.

      Thanks in advance.
      EDIT:
      Found a neat SimplifyCountours.rb script right on the SketchUp repository (http://sketchup.google.com/download/rubyscripts.html). Silly me.

      I figured i should post it here in order to help whoever has a similar issue, since it's somehow related to the plugin subject.

      I'll be keeping your plugin though, thom. It's pure juice. Keep it up!
