Yes, once agin I have gone of track. Seems to be a pattern lately. I had drawn a heart recently but when I tried it again (several times) it did not come out good. I will keep trying though. . I will figure it out. Wish I could afford SubD.

You seemingly haven't installed it from its RBZ. If you simply copy the ../Plugins/HouseBuilder_extension.RB file over to the newer SketchUp version it misses the images to make the toolbar-buttons [and worse!]... Unfortunately the original author was in the dim past [20years ago] and made a half-baked extension loader file, and he didn't give his subfolder the same name as the RB file. The new[ish] auto-migration tool assumes this file/folder naming convention and so it misses out copying the subfolder of images [and some other vital support files that are in that folder]. To fix it you need to find the whole HouseBuilder folder [and its contents intact] in your older version's Plugins folder and copy that whole folder over into the newer SketchUp version's Plugins folder. When you startup SketchUp it should now find the subfolder and load the buttons' images and the other vital support files...

@Dave-R Sorry, I guess I misunderstood what you meant with your post. Yes, it works fine for me now. Again, thanks to the two of you, I have learned something again. One last issue I am having. I am trying to draw a heart that I want to have some "depth" to and have rounded sides. I can draw the hart (and Tig Weld the shape) but some problems with the top dip joint when I try to use the Follow Me tool. I have done it before but just having some trouble getting a "good" shape. Again, I want the two of you guys to know how much I appreciate your assistance and patience. It is greatly appreciated..

That's called Camera Clipping. It occurs when parts of a 3D scene that fall outside the camera's visible region, known as the viewing frustum.

Version 4.2.0 - 12.22.2025 Updated the opening and closing algorithm for all (panel) garage doors. [image: 1766392868909-garagedoor_opening3.gif] Not a customer request, just an interesting kinematic challenge that I felt like addressing at some point. I found the previous garage door opening animation largely unsatisfactory for panel doors like these. Hopefully you can indulge me with a little gold plating... now back to the real stuff.

Thanks TIG, I am honored that my hero is commenting on the path I am going. Okay I will add more guidance on each section. Also will try to make it "dynamic" before finalizing. Color coding is meant to show the pressure forces on each part of the mesh. It meant to generate the best "compressure-only" structure out of the given input. will update it soon.

Also, (only because I'm eagerly anticipating the plumbing release) have you considered crowdsourcing the modeling on these? Create a list on design.medeek.com that can be checked off when you receive a model that matches your requirements?

ATM, there are two windows both on the west (Right) of this render. You may see on. Seeing as I do not 'do' window ledges, the window openings are not readily apparent. There is a logic to this. I frankly got fed up to my molars with females mostly, putting ornaments or flowers on ANY flat surface. I like to be able to open windows without relocating tat every time. I know, fully paid up member of the annoyed ol' git fraternity/club. I am looking at a method to introduce my favourite natural light system here, the sun/solar tube. I shall have to see how effective it will be.

Before trying the following please read the whole post as the answer might be a misunderstanding... Use the SketchUcation ExtensionStore to install JointPushPull, FredoCorner and LibFredo6 again. Then restart SketchUp to sync everything. If you are still getting the licensing error[s] check that you have installed the proper license for the extensions I suspect that you have a license for Fredo's RoundCorner and this is not the same as the installed FredoCorner, which expects a separate license file. There have been a few reports of users confusing the two extensions and their respective licenses. Although the two are similar in what they do, they are not identical, and they need to be licensed separately. So ensure you have the correct extensions installed and their matching licenses validated, after that a SketchUp restart should get both properly licensed and error free.
