    Feel your pain. Unlike the above post, I don't move what I would call orphan files, I change the file type from .rb or what ever is the orphan's file name extension to .ken. This way I can sort of file types and see all the files that I have some concerns. I also do this with folders, adding the ken to the front of the folder's names. If a problem occurs, I look at the missing file if it gives an unable to load error, and I can quickly fine the folder or file. Onto a related but other subject, I would gladly contribute to a large fund, to have the ruby gurus, look at each and every plugin, and make the following suggestions. To the author of the plugin, how to make his plugin error free, if that is possible. Plugins that have been modified and have been given the "star of approval' to be listed in plugin in master error free list. 2.If the author doesn't have the time of maybe not the knowledge, and the plugin is worthy, have one of the gurus complete the task if that is OK with the author. The guru would be paid of course. A plugin in naming systems that gives you some kind of hint which plugin is involved when you look at the plugin in the drop down or context menus. So when you invoked a plugin and it fails, you have some idea which plugin in involved in the plugin directory. And the last, some time ago I started a database that listed each plugin that I had on my computer, and tied context names to the plugin. Such as, if the plugin was to divided, I would list the plugin, and add the context words, divide, split, cut and so on. That way I could fire up the database, and search on the function I wanted, and the database would give me my choices. Sorry to drift off subject. Ken, thanks for you forbearance.

    How is "stray edges" different than what you need? That is my favorite fo what you've described. Some tools do a good job of auto extruding edges, those can be super useful. But for just finding those edges, stray edges is awesome! Chris

    A video tutorial for what? Draw the centerline of the pipe as a path. Draw the profile at one end. Select the path. Get Follow Me, click on the profile. [image: sxTQ_bend.png] It looks like your profile isn't a circle so I used an oval.

    @ecottechtchr said: Does this plug-in work in SketchUp 8? When I tried to install it from Window > Preferences > Extensions > "Install Extension", it won't recognize the file because it's .rb rather than .rbz. Thanks! plugins with .rb are no extensions and you only need to copy it in the right directory. More details from Thomthom...

    My Computer Guru has installed several drives on my PC (it has been rebuilt and upgraded to run SU several times) and encourages me to have programmes separate from data. Programmes generally default to loading on a particular drive in my case the C drive unless told otherwise. I've ended up with SU6 on one drive and SU8 on another hence more than one plugin folder. I've also noticed another plugin folder sitting immediately above the programmes folder in which SU8 is situated. It could be that this has been inadvertently copied maybe. I understand I have a 'raid' system but have no idea how it works, I only have modest understanding of hardware and software. I hope this goes some-way to explaining why. Further questions welcome.

    yeah.. i see what you're saying. (and fwiw, i can't remember a time when i, personally, ever had a small faces problem.. i just don't have a need to draw that small.. so i'm just talking here for the sake of talking ) i guess i was imagining a scenario where the measurement box was automatically multiplying everything by 100 (or whatever). but since we can't enter something like _ 3/16 * 100 _ in the box, i guess i can see how it's highly unlikely for this to be automated some by eliminating the need for _ * 100 _..

    There's scant API access to any of the Edit tools, like Cut, Copy, Paste or PasteInPlace, and those that exist are send_actions which are not exactly helpful... Also selecting objects across entities collections is s recipe for a BugSplat !

    There are some special commands for redrawing DCs that are not in the main API docs, but the DC docs and other sources... This has a ... dcs = $dc_observers.get_latest_class dcs.redraw_with_undo(sang) example http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8507476/sketchup-dynamic-component-options-manipulating-from-ruby Or here https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/sketchupruby/630uerkDhJI There are also several posts at SCF, like this one http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=41567
