Thanks! I'm looking for something more simply and less holistic.
I need that to design and visualize some single complicated nodes in building partitions (walls, ceilings, lintels connections). It will help me to design proper solution of the node construction. I was trying to use some Masonry Assembly Thermal Simulation Software available on the ncma.org website, but it is too simply. If anyone has an idea, I would be grateful for help

Hi
Do You know if there is some plugin which could helps in wall heat transfer simulation in sketchup?
or maybe you know some software you can reccomend to play with this?

Hi.
Today, after running my files, I found that all settings had been reset. Unfortunately, I didn't have them exported to an external file. So all keyboard shortcuts, tools etc have been reset. What is the reason for this? Is there any way to restore it? Why did this happen?
Adams

reinstaling the Lib helped , thanks

After Fredo Corner 2,6 update , the plugin doesnt work on SU2019.
The plugin is installed properly, bought with licence, and it is marked as signed , but it doesnt appear in the plugins menu so I cant run that. The 2,5 version has worked well.
How to run that???

Hello.
I have some problem with layer panel plugin v 1.2.2 (Thomas Hauchecorne)
Sometimes, all groups disappear and all layers appear in one row with no groups. Do you know this bug? Do you know how to deal with it. Is it possible to restore groups or do we have to build the entire group structure from the begining? Adam

The plugin is touted as free, and it is a way this appears in the warehouse website.
It is not fair.
For free - You get almost nothing. If You want create some window and check the quality of profiles etc, you have to pay 100USD!
For 100USD is just unprofitable. If You have to pay for each building component plugin 100USD, you wouln't earn your bread.
It is much better to use sketchup importer for autocad bim libraries provided by windows producers.
Best regards.

Hi.
Can You look at the picture and tell why the faces are or are not in color???
It is just simply few faces drawn wiyhout any groups etc. SU 2019
Adam

Thanks .
I see this.
But please explain me, what is happening now, when You select all those elements which you see in this attachement, and create one big Group.
After that, when You just switch between Your 4 scenes, You will stop to see everything except component nr 1.
The layer for this new group is not important. It can be a new layer and the result is the same.

Why is like that?

Or, do You know if Skalp 14 days trial version has some limitation comparing to bought version????
I can't find the pattern designer there.
P.

Thank You very much for explanation. I had to change the way I thought about layers.

And as for sections, I've been using dibac solid section plugin and this allowed me to paint the section cuts in every views.
Now I'm trying Scalp but I'm not sure if it works properly with 2019.
My Skalp version is 4.0 and I cant find pattern designer.
Can You tell me where is "Create new pattern" option ? (see the attachment).
Is there only *.pat files importer???
P.

I hope I understand that.
If You want to see the component (for example "Window 1") on 1st floor layer,
and you want to have (see) the same "Window 1" on 2nd, 3rd etc... floor layers, You have to create and keep this component primary on layer0 or other layer called for example "windows" and than label that by other layer names.

What are the biggest advantages of such a layer concept? Why doesnt this work like in most 3d cad apps?

I have also two more problems I cant rub along.
If You have few sections in Your model, Is there some way to see the model with only one section result? (one section is only turned on, and others are turned off)?

The second problem is about section filling. I was using SU 2016 before with Dibac solid section plugin, I was able to put any textures on the section planes.
Now in SU2019 I can choose the "section filling" but it is always black. Is there the possibility to put some texture there, or so far there is no such a possibility in SU without other plugins?

P

Thanks for Your time and the informations.

But is there some way that the same component (not unique) could exist independently on two different layers without existing on Layer0 (or other primary layer) ???? I understand that there is no such a way?

So it seems that the ctrl+move command works exactly the same way as copy>paste command, cause even if You paste elements to other layers they will still belong to the primary layer. is it like this?

Hi,
So does that mean, that everything You draw, You physically draw at one layer? (Layer0)? and than just change the layer "labels"?

So why is there a possibility to draw on every layers? What for? If the layers are just like a filtering labels?

I understand, that even if You can change layer for elements in groups and put whole groups into this layer, trying to dock them there, You will not be able to dock the components to such a layer, because the layer affiliation is part of the component properties. Isn't it? Can You release the component from layer affiliation????

Thanks for help.

I copy some element or group which is located on layer no 1, and than move that element to layer no 2 .
Than when I turn off the layer no 2 this element will dissapear, but it also dissapear when I turn off the layer 1. Why this is still connected to both layers?
How to break this connection? I would like to move the elemnt from layer no 1 to layer no 2 without any dependences.
Thank You for some help. PA
