Convert Area

This Plugin counts faces and entities and converts areas and show them in list view. The plugin opens an HTML page that converts the areas of the selected regions. The list view shows six units.Objects can be selected together or individually. If the objects are selected separately, two list displays can be opened, whereby the surface areas of the pieces can be compared.

When creating surfaces you can choose different modes. Surfaces can be displayed or surfaces can be hidden from the geometry without changing it. If the surface is within a group and the group scale has been changed, the surface method returns the original scale.When the drawings and regions are selected, the program calculates the surface areas and changes them to different units. At the same time, several surface areas can be compared. All examples are surface models. Plugins allow surfaces to be selected together or individually. The number and range of surfaces can be calculated together or individually. All example files contain the HTML and RB files of the pages' examples. Files can be downloaded and stored in the Google SketchUp plug-in file folder. Files can also be downloaded via the Ruby panel with the command 'load example.rb'.

About surfaces

• Wireframe: In this mode, the surfaces are invisible. Only edges are visible.

• Hidden Line: Shows all surfaces of the template regardless of background color.

• Shaded: In this mode, the colors of the surfaces appear.

• Shaded with Textures: Materials appear.

• Display Shaded Using All Same: This simplified color model uses the default edge and the rear colors.

• X-Ray: In this space, you can look through the surfaces.
