An alternative, which I use myself, is to put all the methods etc you had intended for the sub-class into a module and perform an instance extend after you have the Geom::Point3d instance.

You can see the module I use in TT_Lib2 for instance: https://bitbucket.org/thomthom/tt-library-2/src/2bb264f27d9bc00c1b1f9a969e481c19385042ad/TT_Lib2/point3d_ex.rb?at=Version%202.9

When I receive a Point3D object I can use: point.extend(TT::Point3d_Ex)
From that point on all the content of that module is available for that instance.

Unfortunately the PickHelper only picks from the current context and sub-context - not parent context.

I hope that you submit all the BugSplats. Even if you submitted the same crash before, as it gives indications to the frequency of each crash.

Thanks you all!

Just had my first day in Boulder and it's been really exciting!

Maybe a plugin with something like this together with a UI?

Jim created such a tool many years ago: http://sketchuptips.blogspot.no/2008/02/plugin-construction-line-tool.html

But since it's hosted only on his site I think it's somewhat overlooked. But it's one of my must-have tools.

Just a question, can you tell us anything about what your main areas of responsibility at Trimble will be?

I'm on the Extensibility Team, the API and plugins team.

That's interesting. So it appear to be a timing issue with the load event. Strange though, the console appear to use the same loading method.

I'll try out moving that load event and also see if using the DOMReady event.

I've not really used TestUp until now. Found that blank initial window really annoying, and the code is so complex that it wasn't easy to work out what is going on.

Thanks.

Currently the Ruby API only has that one method to list assigned shortcuts.

Tell me about it! On the other hand, going anywhere in the world is going to be cheaper!

what's the deal with your new profile listing mac as the OS?

Need OSX and Windows to develop for SketchUp, so I got a Mac with BootCamp. The Retina screen isn't working that great under Window, so I'm currently using OSX as my main OS while working. It's taking some time to get used to, since I'm a long time PeeCee guy...

Oh, I have many more hats to show off.

Yea, it took a while to get everything in place so I could work from Norway. I've been tapping my fingers for a looong time.

Surface Bezier's plugin is always in course

Bezier surface please

I won't be forgetting my plugins.

...which started yesterday - when I began my new job at Trimble SketchUp as software developer on the Extensibility Team.

I'm, sitting here with the SketchUp source code and a pile of bug reports, many submitted by myself . Pretty nice way to start off after a nice summer break.

Heading over to Boulder on Sunday for training and introduction. Looking forward to meeting the rest of the team. I met many last time I was there at BaseCamp 2012, but there's a few new faces there now - such as Chris Fullmer. I began SketchUp plugin development right about the same time as him - fun to see that we join the SketchUp Team on about the same time as well.

Then I'll be back in Trondheim - working remotely.

As you can see, I've set up a new profile here on SketchUcation which I'll be using when representing the SketchUp Team.
