Faster way to Activate ConDoc System + Configurator autosave/save alert

[[email protected]]

Hey Mike – just a thought in the next update if it’s possible to provide a faster way to activate the ConDoc system dialog,  Like a clickable toolbar icon that would activate it and bring up the dialog?  It can be tedious, especially if Sketchup is crashing a lot to go to Extensions>Condoc>CondocSystem>CondocSystem to bring it up each time.  Also, is there a way that changes to your drawing set files could be autosaved as well as an alert to save changes if you close the Sketchup file?  If you close Sketchup and forget to save in the configurator or if Sketchup crashes, you lose any changes you made in the ConDoc configurator.  Thanks!

Hello Kevin!  Fair point…  and I sincerely apologize for the crashing on Mac SU 2023.  We are still digging in on this.

Keep in mind all of the ConDoc dropdown commands can have keyboard shortcuts.  This includes launching the ConDoc System as well as all of the buttons on the ConDoc System headsup display.

I do my best to keep the toolbars lean…  In your opinion does this solve the issue?  Or do you still prefer a button?  I agree it is a little hidden, but I hesitate to add buttons.  Let me know!

Hey Mike – I didn’t realize you could create a shortcut.  That definitely helps but I don’t think it would hurt to add a button as well since it is used so frequently to make changes and adjustments – but maybe that is because I am still dialing everything in and once I get the workflow down I won’t be accessing it as much as I am now

Thanks Kevin!  Another thought we had is to automatically open the ConDoc System every time you open SketchUp…  and provide the ability to disable if you don’t want it.  Will take your comments into consideration…
