I have an idea....
Its struck me that as I work I'm naming as I go. If i do bulk renaming then i really need all the options of the window, If I'm naming as I go then I don't...
to save opening it each time could the last parameter/settings just be stored and a Shortcut key can be assigned. I just press the shortcut and viola .....
no need to open the window and change the settings
Speed increased
5p more earned
earlier home by three seconds

This is really good idea!

I first need to become familiar with storing web-dialog parameters/settings with maybe 'HTML5 Web Storage'. After learning how to do that I will try to integrate you suggestion.

Thanks!

You can make your webdialog a toolwindow, though : http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=280331#p280331

This might be the answer for making better looking web-dialogs!...Thanks!

Maybe in the future this will be allowed...Thanks for reply!

Try setting the webdialog to a fixed size (min == max, in both x & y), with the sizable argument to false.

Hi, thanks for respond...bellow is what I tried but the max & min button are still showing.

dialog = UI;;WebDialog.new("Test", false, "Test", 420, 500, 400, 400, false)

dialog.set_size(420, 500)
dialog.max_width = 420
dialog.min_width = 420
dialog.max_height = 500
dialog.min_height = 500

dialog.set_file(file)
dialog.show()

Hi,

I opened the extension warehouse web-dialog in SketchUp and I noticed it only showed the close button at the top right corner of the web-dialog...How can I not show maximize & minimize buttons?

Thanks in advance!

It works fine !
Thank you....

Thank you for letting me know!

That's some handy tool to play with Rotating the camera manually using the rotate tool is a bit complicated for me Using your WSAD style is just what SU needs. - easy and simple

The web-dialog looks amazing too! I suspect you must be a master in composition. Great work as always

Thanks

Glad you liked it!

@i.aleks.s said:

renderiza, good and necessary plug-in has turned!

It needs to finish because; I have this plugin, after its use, when to go to the manage regular instruments of the SketchUp, changes the view of the future stretched - distorted in perspective and started twitching, jerking when I do move and not by means of Your plugins.
For everything to work as before, to use your plugin, you have to restart SketchUp!

Just good.

Thanks for feedback!

When you press "a" or "d" key it changes the field of view so that might be the reason for distorted perspective. arrow keys don't distort camera, if I find a way to move towards the target without messing with field of view then I will replace it for "a" and "d" keys.

hope this helps...cheers!

That will prevent the initial white dialog under OSX.

Yes I did that and received feedback from a Mac user that the dialog was loading ok.

@tt_su said:

On a sidenote, I always recommend jQuery or similar frameworks. They take care of most cross compatibility issues - even in this case because jQuery.ready() event uses the DOM ready event which doesn't cause any white out.

I will need to study how to implement this for future...thanks!

• Smaller interface

Welcome to sketchUcation!

Maybe making a plugin that will store all the scenes camera positions coordinates into a group or component. Then you will be able to copy that entity and paste it on another SketchUp model so that when you run plugin again on new file, it will remake all the scenes as before with saved camera positions. What I am questioning is how to store the style info as well and not only camera position.

• Loading window issue for Mac fix - Using BODY onLoad will cause a blank WebDialog windows under OSX when it opens. This update seek to solve that problem. If anyone with a mac can verify if the issue is gone I will be very thankful. ]

@slbaumgartner said:

Remove the onLoad from <body> and then move the <script> … </script> up as the last element before </body>. You will also need either to invoke the startup() function you have defined after the } or else just call nextFrame(); without the function (if you don't also need it elsewhere). The script will be run as the last step of loading the body on both Windows and Mac.

Thank you so much I think I got it with your help!

Can't test it since I don't have a Mac but will upload an update in hopes that someone can verify if it works. Again thank you very much!

Thank you for sharing looks great!

@slbaumgartner said:

Move the script from the onLoad event to the last element in the body. This is a much discussed and criticized aspect of the WebDialog startup on the Mac.

I am sorry but I don't know what you mean by last element in body.

Can you provide an example:

<html>
  <head>
  </head>
  <body onLoad="startup();">
  </body>
</html>

<script>
  function startup() {
    nextFrame();
  }
</script>

Thanks in advance

Simple, warning pop-up from internet explorer, claiming a javascript error. (With lines, character, and path to the html file)

Did v.1.0.3 solved this issue?
Not sure why but I don't see this warning pop-ups.

Hi,

I received this suggestion to fix my "Rename by Layer" plugin but I am not sure how to solve it. Can someone help me figure this out? I have no mac so its hard to work bugs for them.

@unknownuser said:

In RND_Renamer/rnd_renamer.html:

Comment on line 8:
<body onLoad="startup(), stopwatch(this.value);">
Using BODY onLoad will cause a blank WebDialog windows under OSX when it opens. The content appear after right clicking or resizing. To work around this, move the functions calls from this event to a SCRIPT element at the bottom of the page, or use the DOMContentLoaded event. (Though this need more work for cross browser compatibility unless you use a framework like jQuery.)

Not sure how to solve it.

Read my SmartOffset code to see how I offset the edges of a given face...

That is by no means an easy task but I will try to understand what you wrote. Isn't there a 1st grader version?

@tt_su said:

Side note - Ruby is very slow. You'll find using the SketchUp API's .distance method much faster than doing your own length calculation. At least if you do this for a somewhat large set of entities.

That is good to know thanks!
