@Anton_S
AMS lib is not compatible with SU2024.
Will you update it？

Try adjusting the Dark slider down a little. For me the Light slider at 1 and the Dark slider at 80 works.

With your graphics card it might be different.

Thank you!

Style > Color by Tag [Layer] checked.
Shadows > Light=0, Dark=100

Thank you for reply.
I do it as your prompt, color RGB(120,120,120) export to img, changes to RGB(144,144,144).

Dark = 80 ,color RGB(120,120,120) export to img, changes to RGB(119,119,119).
Dark = 81 ,color RGB(120,120,120) export to img, changes to RGB(121,121,121).

can Sketchup export img with exact RGB(120,120,120)?

Hi all , I want to find a way to export seg img to Stable Diffusion.

Can Sketchup export image , that every thing is shown with the exact color defined by it's tag,no shadow,no darkness,no high light,no fade.... just some flat color.

Like this:
IF the tag's color is rgb(120,120,120),in the eported img ,eveyr object use this tag is a field color of rgb(120,120,120).

Thank a lot.

AMS lib is not compatible with SU2021.

You'll have to restart SketchUp to get your Extension to be reformed.
However, if you simply want to reload its main code file[s] from inside its folder, use:
load "XXX/XXX_code.rb"
Change it to suit the actual file-name...

I get it.
thankyou，TIG。

happy new year!

In Sketchup English version , "Plugins" menu name is just "Plugins".
But in Sketchup Chinese version, "Plugins" menu name always change.
How to get the name of Plugins menu in ruby?
Thanks!

wikii

The "Plugins" menu was renamed to "Extensions" in SU2015.
Has the Chinese version of SketchUp changed on other versions than SU2015?

What are you trying to do?
UI.menu("Plugins") should always work regardless of version and language.

I want to set shortcuts to some plugins.
So, I need to know the display name of Plugins menu.

Try it and see...
But I suspect not.
Also SketchUp might overwrite changes on exit back as it is currently kept in memory from the start ?

bad news!

SketchUp DO overwrite changes on exit!

You need to split/parse the file to find [for example]:

BUT I recommend that you use the longstanding method Sketchup.get_shortcuts to return a similar list...***

It returns an array, with elements formatted thus: "Ctrl+Shift+E\tCamera/Zoom Extents", "Ctrl+Shift+W\tCamera/Zoom Window", ... where the modifier keys are spelled out more clearly than in the json file's 0/1.. format [clearly separated by + signs], and the \t always separates the keys and the command...
***This method will probably also return a longer list, as it includes ALL shortcuts, including those shipped with the installer, whereas the json version only includes those which have been added or modified by the user...

great！

If I modify the SharedPreferences.json file，such as add some shortcuts in it,will it take effect in sketchup immediately？

In su 2017 or before , shortcuts are stored in registry.
But where are they stored in su2018?

Js call back for WebDialog :
window.location = 'skp:ruby_messagebox@Hello World';

Js call back for HtmlDialog:
sketchup.say('Hello World', 42);

I found window.location also work for HtmlDialog.

Is there any differences?

C:/Users/USERNAME/AppData/Local/SketchUp/SketchUp 2018/SketchUp/**PrivatePreferences.json**

For example, for the "ExtensionStore" toolbar info, you need to find the entries using some grepping and parsing/splitting... for the toolbar

"RubyWorkspace\\ToolbarsUser-Bar8"; {
>   "BarID"; 59661,
>   "BarName"; "ExtensionStore"
> },

and from its BarID, its status later on

"RubyWorkspace\\RubyToolBar-59661"; {
>   "Columns"; 0,
>   "DockBarId"; 0,
>   "Visible"; 1
> },

and for its main dialog details

"WebDialog_SketchUcation ExtensionStore"; {
>   "Height"; 918,
>   "Left"; 11,
>   "Top"; 84,
>   "Width"; 862
> },

for this kind of entry note that another 'prefix' might apply for the newer HTML dialog type - test it..

Great！
Many thanks！

In su2017 or before, each Webdialog's position and size was stored in registry .

Is there any good reason that you are including Anton's AMS Lib with this? AMSLib is easily available in the Plugins Store and also the Extension Warehouse.

You have now created a conflict - one of the libraries will re-write the other. This is not a problem until one of you makes changes which could potentially break both plugins and cause a lot of confusion for yourselves and problems for everyone else using the library.

I hope you at least that you talked to Anton about including his work in your extension. At the very least, you need to wrap AMSLib in a different namespace to avoid conflicts.

In our place,many time,it very difficult to access sketchucation.com or the Extension Warehouse.

Thank you for your advise.

I remove ams_lib in the packed file.
