Dotted Line for SketchUp

This is a SketchUp Ruby extension. Using it you can:

• Replace selected edges by dotted line.
• Customize the length of dot lines and spaces between them.
• Make converted lines soft.

How to use

1. Download and install the lastest version
2. Select edges (only) in SketchUp
3. Right-click on the selection and click Replace by dotted lines...
4. Edit the properties and click "Ok"

Choose Soften Yes if you want to hide the selected edges, or No to delete them. Dotted lines will be created in a new group.

If the number of selected edges is more than 100, you will see a window informing you that it may take some time depending on your system hardware to convert the edges.
