When I import my registry from one computer to another it loads all of the toolbars but does not load the buttons.Any ideas why this may be happening?

Thanks in advance!

Okay the problem is because it remembers the username of the original computer. I logged into a colleagues computer with my username and it works but when i log in with his it doesnt. Is there any way of fixing this manually?

Ideally i want to set up a registry and plugin data file for 3-4 users in our office so we all have the same toolbars but because we obviously dont have the same username it isnt working. Does this mean i have to set it up one by one?

Thanks for all your help

Regards,
Keith

hi all! just started using this tool and am LOVING it! one thing though. is there any way to enter a scale or distance factor when in gizmo mode? the advantage of this would be that i could scale by half in just one axis rather than all at once. thanks in advance for your tips and this excellent resource!

hm... this should be working... but something seems to be broken.. I need to file this as a bug and investigate. Sorry.

Thanks for such a prompt respons thomthom! look forward to the fix

Sdmitch This plugin is AMAZING! I am surprised it is free! the more i use it the more powerful i find it.

One thing that would be really great to see is a randomflip to the textures option. This would increase the quality of rendering substantially.

Great job again!

Hi All,

I am curious if anyone has actually successfully installed the SUTools Plugin on either Windows or Mac. I can get an older version to work on my MAC but it is a version that was in the very early development stages and is not very suitable to my needs. If you have any advice as to how i might install the latest versions that would be great.

Regards
Keith

With Snow Leopard you can still toggle toolbars by setting up in System Preferences and shortcuts show on menu.

Thanks for the tip! This worked a treat! Now I can toggle any Toolbars on and off through commands. Works I am surprised that more users have not posted this issue :S

Sure do hope for some tabbed toolbars though

I have a dialog that uses a text file to create a list of installed toolbars and toggle them on/off, but I'm still working on a good way to identify the Ruby toolbar names.

Hi Jim the post you showed before that had a window allowing you to check / close all/ show all toolbars. How does that work? it seems that this could almost be used as a side bar that allows direct access to the different toolbars. Is this correct?

Cheers

Thanks for the tip. I assume this is how you ensure that a toolbar opens upon launch or not. Would that be correct?

As for the shortcut keys they are located under Home\Library\Application Support\Google Sketchup 8\Sketchup\Shortcuts.plist and can be edited using textedit or textwrangler from here.

The issue is as soon as I write a shortcut it wipes it off when I relaunch Sketchup. All of my other shortcuts work fine just the ruby toolbars that I cant seem to assign shortcuts to.

Looking at Shortcuts.plist now but with no luck. It actually seems like they are all jumbled up compared to what my normal shortcuts are. I am contemplating starting from scratch but it really is a pain to redo all of your settings. Sketchup should have a save as a copy setting for shortcuts

I look forward to seeing the tutorial driven!
