Re: [Plugin] (TIG) Rotate Plan View v1.1 20110316

Hi TIG,

This plugin of yours was a gem!
Unfortunately it doesn't work with sketchup 2024.... Any update soon?
Thank you.

Sl-m

I actually tried it in Sketchup 2019.2
Nothing was happening at the beginning until I edit the SOURCE & TARGET "instance names" (not definition). It worked like a charm and It will make me save LOTS of time. You guys are champs!

Tip: you can select all your source components in one go and enter their instance name in one time.
Hope that helps anyone who got stuck:)

Hi Rich,

Thanks for your reply.
Just found I had a rbs version (see below):
Any easy way to fix?

extension.description = 'Create a Loxodrome component based on parameters entered in a dialog. ' +
'The menu item is Draw -> Spherical Helix (Loxodrome).'
extension.version = '1.1'
extension.creator = 'Regular Polygon'
extension.copyright = "Regular Polygon #{Time.now.year}"

Hi There,

While trying to load the loxodrome plugin in skp pro 2017 I have this message:

Error Loading File rp_loxodrome.rb
Error: #<SyntaxError: C:/Users/Slim/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2017/SketchUp/Plugins/rp_loxodrome.rb:19: invalid multibyte char (UTF-8)

Any help to sort out the problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi There,

We do have 6 X Sketchup licences in the office and every time a new skp version is installed I do have to implement every computer with the same workspace which is a very annoying and time consuming task.

As I'm the one who masters SKP the best I tend to implement the same workspace on every computer so I can teach my employees how to use the various tools and extension I tried first on my own before deploying them.

Deployment is a critical issue in an office and I'm struggling to find out where this information is stored so I can easily replicate it.

Help appreciated.
Thank you.
Slim

Hi there,

Everything was working very well... Until yesterday when I played with the settings.
After that the RichSection wouldn't cut through, just show the section line.
I even loose the ability to activate the original Sketchup section tool and had to restart Sketchup.
Any idea what's wrong ?

Using sketchup 2015, windows7 ultimate 64.
Thank you

Hi There,

The measuring tool is definitely a must have.
Clients are always after numbers after all

Hi There,

Seems like a very powerful plugin, Well done and thanks for sharing!
I have a question though:

I'm using pro SKetchup pro 2015.
When i have already created cut plans and select one of them, right click and "make realsection", nothing happens. I pressed "show real section" but doesn't make any difference.

What M'I doing wrong ?

Thank you
Sl!m

Realsection is another plugin. Mine is RichSection.

Wow so sorry I got confused and completely missed that!
I would rather erase my thread as it is not useful for other users.

Merry Christmas!

Hi there,

when I launch qhull/voronoi, the DOS box that appears for half a second says (thanks to my exceptional reflexes into pressing the printscreen button):

%(#FF0040)[qhull error: could not open file "qhull\points.txt".
while executing : | qhull TI qhull\points.txt v Qbb Qj o Fv TO qhull\qvoronoi.txt
Options selected for Qhull 2003.1 2033/12/30:]

my points.txt was properly generated before. Any idea ?

Thanks

Hi there,

I found this Voronoi so cool... couldn't resist posting this.
Interacting with the mouse moving over the points.

Is that code any useful to ruby Heros ?

Have a great day/night!

Few comments :
1/ Could it be possible to undo the voronoi generation in one go ?(ctrl Z is going back through all the steps of the generation)

@mattc said:

added to the wish list - see some posts above

Thanks !
If I may add one wish : The tab options for the conics should remember the last options chosen.

@unknownuser said:

2/ It does not generate the voronoi all the time. Sometimes nothing happens. Any idea ?

@mattc said:

if You can post Your .skp file then I can take a look at it.

Here it is.
By the way I'm using pjt's plugin. Thanks for looking at this!
