Anyway, thanks for responding.

Yeah, I figured as much! The dense details are really slowing things down. Guess I’ll just have to power through it—no shortcuts this time! Haha. Thanks for the advice… and I’ll definitely keep that paracetamol handy!

Hard to say when there’s no image to judge. But with a simulation running if you box select it captures any pins within the box. If you inadvertently click on the cloth object at the beginning of a box selection there is a chance you pick the cloth object

It's up and running ! Following your reply, I opened the Ruby console (this was new for me :-). At the end of the generation process, the code displayed was : FFmpeg = false. Indeed I had to authorize access to FFmpeg, couldn't do it on the apple preference system, security window and I didn't want to start writing codes, no experience at all. There are a lot of stuff on YT about installing FFmpeg on Mac. I had a go, I downloaded the FFmeg EXE prog. Then I directed Animator to it and using the red FFmpeg button... and finally got the window authorizing the access ! I ran the video generation again and Ruby showed FFmpeg = True ! I still have to press the "interrupt " button at the end to save the video file but all ok. It's strange that using SU "gestionnaire Extension" all looks fine with your files, which are both signed ? Did I miss anything in the installation process ? Thank you Fredo

If the surrounding geometry is such that the text is obscured you can use the native Text Tool to reposition it.

I must not be one of the cool kids…. Suppose I’ll just muddle along with the full version already sitting on the iMac.

@teppi_edmund Can you visit https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php and download license files to your device Open SketchUp Go to Tools > Fredo Collection > Fredo Scale > License... Click Activate and use your Fredo Scale license file Report back result

Its most likely you are rotating about another objects origin point. Hovering an element in the timeline is a good clue

It does, but then I get the error message, see the video......

@fredo6 I'm not sure who's update has resolved this but Vray 7 with the latest hotfix now works alongside the latest LibFredo and Thrupaint 2.8. For some reason Thrupaint had disappeared from my PC when I started it up today after the Xmas break, so installed the latest version today. I don't use LOTT, so I can't give any feedback on that. Thanks for your work

works perfect. Thanks a lot

After installing any updated extensions, libs and the latest SketchUcation toolset, close SketchUp and restart it again to sync everything...

@pilotman1999 Have you clicked the save camera button after "capture current view camera"? This was puzzled me as I try to set up camera in animator first time. You must confirm and save the camera view each time you change the view. Hope I didn't misunderstand your issue.

Hi, It is solved. I think Australia is half day ahead of France so when I put the post first time animator 4.1a is not shown on sketchucation site yet After I watched Melbourne spectacular new year fireworks and back home tried again, the new version showed up. Happy new year everyone!
