One reason I'll never switch to Windows is the new MS ribbon. I'm sorry, but I didn't like Microsoft's ribbon. I found it extremely confusing and counter-intuitive to work with, and I think it ruined Solidworks' otherwise excellent GUI (I'm a "trained in Solidworks" engineer).

But having got that off my chest ( ), the idea of having a toolbar containing everything useful and in once place is quite appealing in SketchUp, especially as I now am in need of something a little more advanced than the current and existing tools. So that leads me to ask, will Caleidos4D work on Mac OSX?

Thanks.

Tom

I don't know since I haven't tried, but there is nothing that would prevent it from working.

Caleidos4D ,

Nice interface, well done and thanks. Do you have a plan for providing language translations? I'm not sure how best to implement them in a WebDialog - I know Fredo, TIG, and ThomThom have code for this, so maybe someone could make a suggestion.

all I'm getting at the link is

I'll be porting VertexTools' translation system to TT_Lib2 - at the moment it has some bits locking it to VT only, but it's not hard to decouple it.

aha thank you.

sorry for my bad English, but would you be so kind to explain how to use? The interface looks interesting but I can not do anything with it

Thank you very much

[Krisidious]

will this mount up in a side monitor? I have three and don't like losing space on top.

yup, works on a 2nd monitor.

had some java errors.. but it's a beta so...

[Krisidious]

yup, works on a 2nd monitor.

Thank you...

one of my biggest problems is that I don't remember all of my plugins... I do work I don't need to be doing because I forget I don't have to do it any more. toolbars help me remember... a ribbon that's grouping the plugins might be even better. can't wait to try it.

[Krisidious]

the hover tips are in Italian? French?

is there a way to change the resolution size of the ribbon? mine doesn't fit inside of 1024?

is there a way to make your own ribbon preset?

Thank you Jim, I am honored to know that you liked my work,
And thanks to you and Mover2 if My ribbon is born

For translate:
in the next version, I will translate the tooltips in English but I also accept suggestions

I wanted to try out as a precaution in Sketchup 8. But can not find this plugin. Am I doing something wrong?

Charly

Like this?

Is that a handle on the front, to remove the beer?

[tfdesign]

But hey, so far, so good!

[Burkhard]

Just a question. The whole thing does not make really sense when there is no way to stop starting the toolbars while starting Sketchup.
When I disabled the tools in the preferences, the toolbars in the ribbon does'nt work. If they are enabled the toolbars floating my window again ( on Mac ) so I have to enable all Toolbars manually.
Is there a way to force the Toolbars to disappear/quit at once?

[majid]

thanx for your job, but still nothing is happenig at my side!!! plz help

[Krisidious]

what seems to be the issue Majid?

[thomthom]

Majid: it looks as though you have maximized the toolbar window - just resize to back to a fitting size.

[majid]

almost nothing is working for me:)... cant create shapes...etc..etc..and nothing is displayed... this is the issue
