Where to find the variable with the time ?

Ruby Time class from the 'Pick-Axe' book. Time class in Ruby Core Docs.

I didn't mean in SU. I meant "variable with the time" in the javascript file ...
But I think that's to much new stuff at once.

Thanks a lot Thomas.

Adam,

I tried it. It is very close to what I need.
I give you a PM with further details.

(1) Jim did not subclass from Sketchup::ShadowInfoObserver

No need. Su doesn't care. Just implement the methods required.

I knew that Sketchup does't (currently,) check the observer's superclass.

But isn't it a matter of good Ruby programming practice?

And, what if (in the future,) Google implements some built-in methods, constants, etc. in the superclass that will need to be inherited by your custom observer's subclass(es)? You'd have to go and edit and re-release all your plugins that use observer's.

Kind of seem to be by design: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=17047&start=150#p171636
