triangulate

dvmorris — Sat, 04 Aug 2007 01:04:21 -0400

This script takes all currently selected faces, and triangulates them by adding a vertex at the centroid of each face and connecting all vertices of that face to it. It's a really simple method of triangulation, and there is an optional parameter called 'all' that if set to true, will triangulate every selected face, including faces which are already triangles.

Drop

Great script that allows you to instantly align objects to the surface below. A common example would be scattering people / trees / entourage around a sloping site. With this script, just select your objects, click drop and they instantly fall to the surface below. Easy as can be!

Please see this page at my blog for more information.

Selector

jim — Sun, 15 Apr 2007 18:48:38 -0400

Opens a dialog to select entities by type (edge, face, group, or instance.) This is a very basic tool (toy?), but could be expanded to include multiple criteria (such as selecting by Layer or material.)

Arc Centerpoint

jim — Sun, 08 Apr 2007 01:13:44 -0400

Right-click an arc or circle to insert its centerpoint into the model.

New From Template

jim — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 21:06:04 -0400

This script lets you select a template and start a new model in one step.

Obj Importer

jim — Fri, 09 Mar 2007 11:39:17 -0500

This script imports .obj files directly into SketchUp. It works well on some files, fails on others. The Pro version can already do this.

Export CI ID

jim — Thu, 08 Mar 2007 10:46:08 -0500

Exports a SketchUp model's Group and Component hierarchy. Click for screenshots.

Sphere Tool

jim — Wed, 07 Mar 2007 13:51:06 -0500

This script adds a Sphere option to SketchUp's Draw menu.

Please visit my blog fro the latest version of all my plugins.

Unfold Tool

jim — Tue, 06 Mar 2007 13:03:53 -0500

Please see my blog for more information and to download this script.

Save As Template

jim — Tue, 06 Mar 2007 02:11:28 -0500

Opens the Save dialog to simplify saving the current model in the Templates directory.

Probably won't work on a Mac as I don't have access to one to test it.

Add Hidden Layer

jim — Tue, 06 Mar 2007 01:16:35 -0500

Adds a new Layer that is turned off by default - not only for existing pages (or scenes), but for any new pages (or scenes.) Should work with SketchUp versions 5 or 6.

ApplyTo

Admin — Thu, 22 Feb 2007 10:00:17 -0500

Apply a component definition to selected component instances.

Grow

Admin — Mon, 19 Feb 2007 11:28:24 -0500

It takes a selection and copies it in XYZ a desired number of times, applying spacing, rotation and scaling. It makes some weird 'growths', but I can also see its use in making helical steps etc...

Usage : Move/Place Objects, Select them and pick Grow.
Pick Point, Enter desired data in dialogs and see results. Undo is 1 go.
