So you installed the FredoScale extension.
I assume you installed it from an RBZ you've downloaded, using the Extension Manager > Install method...
When it's installed it doesn't appear in the 'normal menu list' - by which is must assume you mean 'Extensions', it's under the 'Tools' menu, and also has a Toolbar which you could activate.
I don't understand your 'where do you open the icons' ?? Please explain...

You will also need LibFredo6 [for the helper methods] and the SketchUcation Tools [for the licensing] installing...

Restart SketchUp after the installations to sync everything.

After that it doesn't appear, or it is not at least listed in the Extension Manager dialog, then come back for more help...

How do you purchase a license for the multitag extention? I went to the website and then checked out but would not let me pay with credit card.

@Rich-O-Brien Thanks for fixing.

Recently, the range of exposure values changed, bringing this scene to an exposure of -10, rendering everything dark. Setting it to zero would have fixed this.

Like Rich said, it's still beta software, so there might be quirks.

@ntxdave We only support 2021 or higher. 2020 is not supported.

There’s no time-limited trial, you can use it for free as long as you like but the free version has a small watermark.

Cheers,
Thomas

@ntxdave
The current version of SketchUcation Tools works on versions >= v2017
If you have bundles relating to other versions [newer or older], then you should be able to use them in v2020...

Hi @samuel_t

MATERIAL NODE
What I meant was, if it is possible to handle material parameters like

The use for this would be, creating a material, and two or more bitmap nodes, this way is fast to change and test different material settings, eg. by switching between the two bitmap nodes.

SLIDER NODE
A slider node for fast and easy way to change values, and seem them change without having to think about a number - just watching the result.

COMPONENTS
Would it possible to use components instead of groups? it would be very usefull to copy components around, and when you edit one, you edit all.
It might allready be possible, and I have just overlooked it.

An example - a simple hotel - I created one component, use nodes to construct the hotel and BAM. It could hotel rooms, as components, that can be copied around.
Then it's easy to add details and update the whole project in one operation.

In the example I created a component, the single one on the left. I then used Node editor to copy the component, but they become groups, and when I change the first component - nothing happens - of cource.

Could be interresting 🙂

@aleathompson520 share the .skp file so we can see what you are working with.

@Rich-O-Brien Thank you for commenting, in my opinion it is interesting because with this possibility you could do without the native move command and thus you would have everything together in one command. This is very practical in the future to be able to work with a pencil without having to use the keyboard or for people who do not like to use the keyboard to draw. Anyway, thank you for your time and greetings

@Rich-O-Brien Yes I had done that before but for some reason it did not work. It now worked so I think all is OK.

Thanks for the support.

@kdewinter said in FredoXRef:

Has this extension already be released? I cant find it back on Sketchucation...

Anyone?

No, unreleased for now

You can't change it. Its the email address you input at purchase time.

Licenses are associated to your user account.

@lucarcari
Having changed computer has probably messed things up.

Assuming you no longer have access to the license file you saved onto your previous computer, or the email which sent it to you, have you tried the SketchUcation My Licenses page, whilst logged in as the user who bought the license ?
https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php
This allows you to deactivate any 'old' licenses, download a copy so you can activate a new one etc...

@PROYECTARIUM

When you buy a Fredo6 license it allows you to install it [and validate it] on up to 3 different computers.
You simply copy the license file onto the other computer and use that file to activate a license for the related extension on that computer.
There are also tools available on the SketchUcation website to manage licenses later on - e.g. if you get a different computer that needs a license, and you can remove a validation from the previous computer.

Cuando compras una licencia de Fredo6, te permite instalarla [y validarla] en hasta 3 computadoras diferentes.
Simplemente copie el archivo de licencia en la otra computadora y use ese archivo para activar una licencia para la extensión relacionada en esa computadora.
También hay herramientas disponibles en el sitio web de SketchUcation para gestionar licencias más adelante, p. si obtiene una computadora diferente que necesita una licencia, puede eliminar una validación de la computadora anterior.
