I was reading this post: [image] The Best SU+LO Automation for Construction Drawings? Pro I terms of automating construction drawings I think good templates goes a long way. One can have SU templates with all the tags, tag folders, styles, scenes already set up. The time i…

I tested the extension, it works great and it’s a real time-saver. Whenever I needed to publish pdf´s before this it took a long time to make a catalog of different pdf´s to update the web host for my drawings.

In order to view the thumbnail from a layout document. I needed to unzip and extract the doc_thumbnail.png. Standard packed libs in Sketchup did not work, or a gem was needed, which I wanted to avoid. With a little help from mai friends, I am now using this unzipper.rb: mw_unzipper.rb (14,0 KB) …
