Camera plugin/Animator tracking camera view difficulties
I am using SketchUp 2017 Make and would like to create a tracking camera view in animator looking out the front window of a moving vehicle looking up( rotation of approximately 60 degrees about the green axis). I’m wondering if there is a good camera plugin. The position camera tool is orientated incorrectly to my axises which I don’t want to change because of animator! The position camera is kind of awkward and not very exact for my needs. .What I would really like to do is to create a line that would orientate the camera, the end of the line being the camera position.

KG-dev - Tag Manager - Generate and assign Tags/Layers based on model data, such as classifications and dynamic attributes
Status: Proof of concept.
I admit, the first version of Tag Manager (link to topic) was a good attempt, but failed in leveraging what was already present in SketchUp and the model. It also got created before SketchUp decided to use “tags” as a replacement in nomenclature for what once was called layers. So, I created a new proof of concept, this time using the data present in a model, and using the tags functionality of SketchUp,:
How about automatically generating and assigning those SketchUp tags to your classified (ifc, but any classification should work) entities, or your dynamic components, or … well more should be possible in the future.
Together with the “Color By Layer/Tag” functionality, it allows for the quick generation of thematic maps, for instance.
Could this be helpful for you?

Sketchup/VRay materials properties and light properties not working
Hi,
I am using Sketchup Pro 2019 and VRay 2019 and I am trying edit materials and light properties - it isn’t working - my asset editor isn’t showing any of the materials or spotlights in my model. Can anyone help please?
I have copied the model into a new file.
I added plants and this seems to have stopped things working.
Thanks in advance…

Ever wanted to precisely size an image, e.g. a scale drawing? Then Eneroth Image Size is for you. Just enter a scale and a resolution, e.g. what the scanned used to scan a physical drawing is set to, and the Image Size extension sizes the image for you.

All black Sketchup Vray render
Hi all,
I’m in the process of learning sketchUp and Vray and am in need of some major help. My sketchUp model is complete and I’m trying to get my render done with realistic lighting. I’ve been playing around for days and was able to get it almost where I wanted it and then when I returned thee today, the whole render is black? What could this be?
Thanks in advance https://www.dropbox.com/s/5laf5nc5sxxk33w/UpdatedKitchen.skp?dl=0

Fredo6 Round Corner - Face becomes two tones
Hi there, I have a rectangle which i have extruded. I then draw an arc on the corners and push down so i now have a rectangle with rounded corners. Lastly i want to use the roundcorner tool to give the external edges all a radius. It works fine, apart from the fact the main face inside of the rounded edges now appears to have two tones. When i put through rendering this shaded section is still visible. I have turned on hidden geometry and nothing is shown, it just seems to affect the solid face. I have found a work around of using the round corner to do the initial radius of the corners of the rectangle, and then roundcorner on the external edges. However when i have had a more complex object such as a counter top with a sink cut into it, this issue continues to happen, and I don’t have a work around, it also erases small slices of the face, which i have to go back and fill in…very odd. Anyone else experienced this, and has a work around? Thanks

Changing material saturation / color in VRAY
Hi there, I have the newest version of Vray for SU Pro (2019) and I’m using custom materials. I am changing the attributes of materials already in the file so I do not have to repaint everything. I have found out that I can change the color of the Diff map but cannot change the appearance of the overall rendered texture. What is the proper way to manipulate the colors of individual materials when you have bumps, displacement, etc? My goal is to map the same material to 3 different paver colors in my SU file and just manipulate how dark they are. Although I’m changing the color of the image in each version, they all render the original color. The texture is also a little too saturated (I want cool gray instead of warm). I’m a bit new to VRAY so my lingo may be a little off.

Cutlist excludes any component with "Plate" in name
When using the cutlist extension, I just discovered that any component containing “plate” in its name gets dropped when the cutting list is generated. Is this a known problem, or am I possibly creating the problem with one of my settings? As soon as I change the name of the component to something else, as long as it doesn’t contain the letters “plate” in it, it comes right in.

Help with extension identification
Using SU Make 2016 (32bit) and have a number of extension names/titles showing under Window > Preferences > Extensions that I have installed from .rbz files. The .rbz file is stored in a separate folder. I have recently installed SU 2016 on another computer and would like to use the same extensions on the second computer installation. How can I determine what plugin name shown in Window > Preferences > Extensions is linked to a particular rbz file?
An examples: ene_uprightextruder.rbz installs as “Enroth Upright Extruder”
tt_solid_inspector.rbz installs as "Solid Inspector
These two examples are obvious, how do I link those that are not obvious?
Thank You!
