    • RE: Sketchup 2017 Blank Extension Manager Window

      Thank You cery much TIG.

      Kaspersky setting is so complex.
      Happily I have found that Application Control has had a control on blocking Sketchup functions.
      Bizarre enough Sketchup.exe has been fully allowed.

      Finally I have removed all Sketchup presence from Kadpersky list and activated App Control within Kaspersky and...I think I have managed to fix the mysterious blocking.

      Once more thank you for your taking precious time dropping a line here.

      My best regards.

    • RE: Sketchup 2017 Blank Extension Manager Window

      Bad news.

      After certain time the problem returns.
      This time I have found that there is something wrong with kaspersky TTS 2017 Application Control Settings. When disabled SU Extension Manager is active.

      I have no idea what option (permission)change and first of all find that culprit.

      Certainly I will contact Kaspersky support as well.

    • RE: Sketchup 2017 Blank Extension Manager Window

      Greetings,

      You are awesome.
      I do thank you for your pieces of advice.

      I have removed and reinstalled (repair did not solve the issue) Sketchup keeping all my plugins.
      Extension Manager has well reacted this time.

      The only thing is I have to rebuild a workspace, toolbars, trays, etc.

      Once more my huge thanks to all of you above.

    • Sketchup 2017 Blank Extension Manager Window

      Greetings,

      I would like to install a plugin via the Extension Manager (SU 2017) and at my suprise the windoww is clearly white - empty/blank.

      I have Kaspersky 2017 Total Security installed but I am not able to find any culprit.
      One can say the access to SU Plugin folder is blocked. No message/prompt alas.

      Windows 10 Pro 64 bit.

      I would be deeply thankful; for any piece of advice.
      Thank you in advance.

      Alas it does not work with SU 2017 as far as I experience.
      Should it be any equivalent or a version of that plugin for 2017 release?

      Thank t=you in advance

      Welcome to Sketchucation

      I saw your stand at Boot Camp and Base Camp, crazy that you were positioned right next to Lumion.

      Can you please also show the workflow from Sketchup to Twinmotion, I'd like to see the point cloud creation, export part.

      Thanks.

      Alas, apparently she/he cannot.
      That is a pity.

      Regards,

      Alas, your plugin does not work with Su 2016, some break error while opening SU.

      Should it be other solution to export skp model as a point cloud, or a new version of your plugin?

      I would be most obliged for your reply and any piece of advice,

    • RE: VRay for SketchUp- To use Normal Maps

      Greetings,

      Is there any possibility to add bum, normal map (edit difuse) to vrmesh materials in SU?
      I have got some vrmesh component in SU and I would like to add some visual value to them.

      Thank you in advance.

      PS
      Or should I adjust all material setting to a component before converting it into vrmesh?

    • RE: [Plugin] EdgeInspector - v1.2a - 12 Oct 14

      Huge thanks.

      It does work as you have described.
      But you have to admit that its a too tricky for an everyman user. The tool name is DrawAlong (no space).

      I will be aware such possibilities in the future.

      Best regards with my gratitude for your responses.

    • RE: [Plugin] EdgeInspector - v1.2a - 12 Oct 14

      Do you mean Whole Model?
      Same results. Empty Edge Inspector box.

      I have found the following in Ruby Console (I typed before several SU sessions: 'edgeinspector' - the Ruby Content has stil remained there):

      edgeinspector
      Error: #<NameError: undefined local variable or method edgeinspector' for main:Object> <main>:in <main>'
      SketchUp:1:in `eval'

      Finally I have managed it to work by a crazy chance.
      I have change something in option shrink... by clicking on a tiny square. Now I have an option bar for each tool including Edge Inspector box content.

      favicon

      (screenshot.net)

      I have another issue with Drawalong tool though.
      I cannot assign a letter/keyboard shortcut to it.
      Any combination I have tried (my prefered a letter D) when typed it opens a web browser with a youtube page with instruction video.

      Is there any solution to the issue, any possibility to have a key shortcut to Drawalong tool?

    • RE: [Plugin] EdgeInspector - v1.2a - 12 Oct 14

      Thanks Fredo for your reaction,

      Here is the result, well no result at all. The Ruby Console is empty.
      I have launched RConsole, selected a rectangle and activated Edgeinspector tool.

      favicon

      PS
      I have just noticed that on the other PC with apparently with the same plugin set and configuration (SU 2015) the plugin works well.
      Bizarre. Is the any potential conflict to take into consideration?
      If yes what shall I check?

      Thank you in advance for your kind assistance Fredo.

      Empty window.

      When I select some edges and apply the Edgeinspector tool I have an empty window with no content:

    • Component not visible

      Greetings,

      I have imported a huge model from fbx file using Fluidimporter plugin.
      As a result nothing appeared in SU. While selecting all items only the outline component box (frame) is present marked imported model (a highly detailed tree).
      The model is only visible in Vray render.

      Should it be any issue with my graphic card (Nvidia Quadro 3000M 1Gb) or some SU 2015 problem?

      Win 7Pro 64bit
      8 Gb Ram

      Thank you in advance for any elucidation.

      PS 1
      A saved SU file has about 560 Mb - one tree model inside (invisible)

      PS 2
      It happens as well with a tiny model imported by Fluidimporter from fbx file created with Speedtree Modeler.
