The first versions of Skala Overview: Toolspace for SketchUp, a dockable model overview in the style of Civil 3D.

Toolspace

  • Toolspace instead of the Claude panel. Skala Overview started as the Claude assistant from Manage in its own .rbz, and now presents the model like TOOLSPACE in Civil 3D: a header with the active model view, a Prospector tree, a list panel at the bottom and vertical tabs.
  • Domain categories in the tree. Points, Surfaces, Alignments, Feature lines and Pipe networks are recognised via tags, IFC classification and names, and come in addition to Components and Groups.
  • IFC node. Everything IFC-classified is shown grouped by type, with the spatial hierarchy IfcProject › IfcSite › IfcBuilding › IfcBuildingStorey at the top.
  • Pipe networks per network. Each network is split into Pipes and Manholes, as in Civil 3D.
  • Tags, materials, scenes, styles and statistics are removed from the tree.
  • The panel is embedded frameless in the SketchUp window on Windows, docked on the left in the model view with a slide animation. If Skala Manage is installed, the panel follows the Manage theme (dark or light) live.
