      dear fredo6

      greetings from berlin. fredo6 - i'd say, don't spend too much time on this. your development is very important to many of us i think, so keep going. i think this is the priority. in the meantime, i think i might try your script with a fresh install on another machine to see if i have made this happen through a script conflict...? also, i can always re-install the first version for my "real" work...

      BUT, just in case you are still curious and because you asked the question, i tested the script with the other two tools to answer your question. what i discovered is that it crashes in (i think) exactly the same way. attached are the two logs.

      my method was as follows:

      1. open a new drawing in a new SU session.
      2. draw a box.
      3. push pull it up a bit (with the regular tool).
      4. pick a face.
      5. use one of the three tools.
      6. it starts - says, "double click or press enter to begin...)
      7. (pause) ... progress bar moves ... then ...
      8. <blank>
      9. SU disappears, i am in the finder ...

      my biggest question is: why does the original script work and the new one not? what has changed? and, are any other mac users having this or similar problems? i am very curious. any mac people out there to comment...?

      the mystery continues....

      i've also attached the traductor pieces to make sure they aren't causing the problem....

      best wishes to all

      jason

        well well i fixed it! strange. i wiped out all of my plugins, started again, one at a time, and now it is fine.
        so, the only thing i learned is that you CAN mess up your sketchup by having too many plugins. but i should have realized that... i am going to erase the posts above. sorry to all if i wasted anyone's time ... ;(

          A friend of mine just downloaded Joint Push/Pull from Didier's site. Now when he opens SketchUp he gets the following:

          Any ideas of what needs to change?

            Dave,

            Strange because this bugs existed only for one hour in the life of this script (see http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=6713&start=15#p43230).
            But the version on Crai Ruby Depot does contain the bug apparently. Thanks for signaling.

            A working version is anyway available on the present forum at http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=153&t=6708#p42783

            Didier: When you can, can you please update on your site (and also indicate that it works on Sketchup 5).

            Thanks

            Fredo

                      Excellent! Between this and OOS I am going to save so much time modelling, thanks for all the hard work you've put in.

                            Thank you for your generosity in sharing this excellent script Fredo6. It works beautifully. I now consider your icons an essential part of the Sketchup screen.

                                    I'm trying to use joint push pull on a model but everytime I use it - Sketchup freezes. is there a way to fix it?

                                      Michael,

                                      The progress (push/pull operation) is displayed in the status bar. Does it seem to work (and maybe the progress is just too slow) or is that frozen as well?

                                      Gai...

                                        Both. It happens with a large model. "For example, I made a large maze type shape using a "cubic benzier" or "the freehand" tool. then I clicked on the shape to select it. Then I used the joint push pull to push pull it. 1st click I chosen the height, but when I click it the 2nd time - after a minute, it freezes up.

                                          So, Can you confirm this works fine with small model?

                                          Then, how large is the 'large model'?
                                          Although there are surely limits to how many faces and segments you can handle (due to limits in Ruby memory allocation), JPP usually takes very long when there are many elements. Because Ruby is not multi-threaded within Sketchup, it may 'freeze' Sketchup and even the progress bar, while computing. This may take minutes or longer, but may well end up at some point in time. If you can, try this before doing something else than computing to see if it finally finishes.

                                            if I do large jpp operations, SketchUp sometimes freezes (certainly, if I click somewhere else).

                                            therefore I wait the first 30 seconds, look in the status bar how many faces are done and how many are still left. thus I can calculate a rough remaining time (which normally precisely matches the real time needed).
                                            then I go to the SCF forum and enjoy live until suddenly (sometimes after 10 minutes or so) SketchUp draws my attention to it by becoming active again...

                                            so Joint Push Pull and SCF-forum work hand in hand πŸ˜„
