Isolate Selection

Submitted by fajar on Mon, 2012-03-12 19:09

This is script is based on invert selection written by TIG, I just add a little function to hide selection.

Installation n using :

1. Put the script in the sketchup plugins directory (ex : C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins)

2. Restart the sketchup if it ran, fire up sketch and select any object, you'll find it in right click menu.

3. just right click, invert selection

4. To unhide all object, just using unhide all/last from sketch up function, you know how to do it right ?

Best regard

Drop

Submitted by Admin on Fri, 2007-05-04 00:24

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!

Selector

Submitted by jim on Sun, 2007-04-15 15:48

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.)

Ruby Newbie

Submitted by dvmorris on Fri, 2007-08-03 22:09

Hello everyone,

I am brand new to Ruby Scripting in SketchUp and Ruby scripting in general, but I managed to throw together a script after an hour or so of searching through the mysterious Sketchup Ruby Scripting API documentation. Anyways, all the things I really want the API to do don't seem to be possible.

triangulate

Submitted by dvmorris on Fri, 2007-08-03 22:04

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.

ApplyTo

Submitted by Admin on Thu, 2007-02-22 08:00

Apply a component definition to selected component instances.

New From Template

Submitted by jim on Wed, 2007-03-21 18:06

Save As Template

Submitted by jim on Tue, 2007-03-06 00:11

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.

Obj Importer

Submitted by jim on Fri, 2007-03-09 09:39

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

Grow

Submitted by Admin on Mon, 2007-02-19 09:28

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.

Put On Layer

Submitted by Christopher Grant on Sun, 2007-01-07 23:59

Allows you to easily move entities and their nested elements (ie groups within components within groups) to any layer. You just right click on an entity you want to move. You'll see a "Put on Layer: " submenu. The first entry is "Current" then all other layers in the file are listed underneath for quickly moving entities / groups / components to different layers.
