More dynamic components coming at you! In this Skill Builder, we are going to take a look at nested components and attributes inherited within nested components. Follow along as we go in-depth into this topic.

Excellent series. Thank you. It is very reassuring that you are taking extra time to slowly explain these tools surrounding the whole Dynamic Components topic because it can be very bewildering!!

Is there is a reason you created the nested "Frame" component in the order you did it? Especially the "FrameSize" component? I would have created the "Frame" by creating components for the LeftStyle, RightStyle, BottomRail, and TopRail. Those would then be arranged as required to represent the "Frame". Then I would have selected all the rails and styles and combined those into the top level "Frame" component. After the "Frame" component is created, adding the DC functionality would be the same, excluding the mystery (to me) FrameSize nested component. As far as I can tell, your nested FrameSize component just reflects the same Height and Width values of the top level Frame component’s Height ad Width attributes. Nothing in the DC object seems to be using the FrameSize’s "local" attributes. What am I missing?

Absolutely loving this series! Thank you for your great classes. I just started following you and can't get enough! I'm trying to do a bit more complicated dynamic component for fun. Question: Can you have nested components function as well? Like a boom arm that raises a platform 45 degrees but the platform (nested inside the boom component) rotates -45 degrees to remain level?
@andythompson28322 жыл бұрын
Ha! I answered my own question! OK, first make the boom/platform component rotate with theAttribute: Custom, user can edit as textbox, display in degrees. Connect attribute RotX=Arm&Platform!Raise&Lower. Then you have to double click to enter the Arm&Platform component and in component attributes enter the RotX=-Arm&Basket!RotX. *Note the =negative otherwise your platform will launch it's load into space!

I have a pro subscription. I know this video is older. But I am trying to figure out how to scale a model while not changing the rails or styles of a frame. I followed your steps and have a frame that I can resize in the options window. Then when going to scale the model it, I cannot use the scale tool without distorting the model. My question is how to be able to use the scale tool to resize the model without distorting the style and rails of the frame in the model? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi Aaron, Really enjoy your tutorials...I began with Sketchup 7 several years ago, unfortuntatley let my skills slide, and now am refreshing with 2020 pro. Question: At 6:00 min mark, what is sequence to select only first rectangle to offset? I did get it right twice, but sheer fluke, can't figure out what I did?? When I offset first rectangle, offset appears to copied rectangle. What am I missing?? Thanks!!

I appreciate all the effort that went in to creating this tutorial. Unfortunately, I spent two hours watching and rewatching this because a bug in SketchUp Pro 2021 prevented the Component Options from showing the Frame. It led me to believe that I was not doing something correctly. I did some research and it appears to be a long standing bug in SketchUp. Extremely frustrating. I had to restart Windows to get it to show up again.

Very useful for quick customization of components. Need to see the way how they can be called and added into a model of a room, for example. Could I call the same component more than once in the same model and individually customize them in different parts of the model? Thanks for very clear explanations.

After I created the first "Frame" and named it... when I click inside, then 3-click to select it again and make a new component and name it FrameSize, it just changes the name of the first one and doesn't create a new "drop level" component based on the first one?

I can get the earlier skill builders lessons to work but not this one. When I set the frame height and width of the Frame component and choose to let the user edit the entry, nothing shows up in the component options panel. The attributes panel shows components but the options page show no components selected even when the Frame component selected. The component window shows that there are two in-model components, Frame and FrameSize. I tried this with both SKU Pro 2019 and SKU Pro 2020. Got any ideas?

Nevermind, I just replaced the custom width and length with len x and len y and put fixed values for each element width. Now I don't have to type in values, I just scale the window to the opening in the wall. And of course, I hide some of the scaling options. Much faster.
