Edson,
It looks like you have something rescued from version 1.1. Did you delete the older files?
i threw away the entire v1.2 folder. any clues as to which file i should look for?
-
Edson,
Check if one of these files is still in the Plugins folder.
- LibOnSurface.rb
- OffsetOnSurface.rb
- LineOnSurface.rb
- PolygonOnSurface.rb
- EraserOnSurface.rb
- PolylineOnSurface.rb.
I am not familiar with how scripts install on Mac, but it seems that you have an old LineonSurface.rb and Offset_on_surface.rb which is active and loaded.

the 3 first ones were lying around, outside the TOS folder. i deleted them and that did the trick. thanks.

i must say i enjoy just looking at the way the plugin draws the shapes with those red lines...
and i noticed if you draw 2 overlapping faces it even knows the intersections! (when drawn on faces)
Thank You and Amazing!!

...thanks!

Dear Fredo,
An amazing gift to the Sketchup community. Thank you so much for all your hard work and for your generosity.
Kind regards,

- Brilliant! Many thanks.
- Is there a way to set up number of segments in your curvy tools?

Just like with the regular tools: after drawing the circle/polygon, type a number followed by a letter s and hit enter.

Thanks Fredo, this looks amazing and will be a real help with my modelling
-
Fredo, your work is incredible.
Thank you for this new release -
i am getting strange results with circle or rectangle on a sandboxed surface
oops and i can't seem to attach images anymore! (file is not valid)

Fredo, this is an amazing set of tools. Thank you.
A question for you. When I first select one of the tools I get a message box indicating that the following files could be removed...
- LibOnSurface.rb
- OffsetOnSurface.rb
- LineOnSurface.rb
- PolygonOnSurface.rb
- EraserOnSurface.rb
- PolylineOnSurface.rb.
But that TOS_Dir and OFS_Dir could not be removed. I have removed those RB files and directories from the Plugins folder. I hadn't removed them before the first time I tried the new set of tools. After seeing that message box the first time, I did remove those files but I still get it the first time after opening SketchUp. Is this message just a normal thing?
You asked about what folks were getting for loading times but I haven't seen the thing I'm supposed to click on to see it.
Thanks again.

Actually I meant afterwards, in entity info window
THAT didn't work for me either but the VCB input is just fine (at least for me).
The possible cause for not being editable from the entity info is that these entities are not "regular", native SU entities thus they are not editable this way.
There are however immense options available when you edit them while right clicking with the tool during creation for instance.

Dave,
For the warning message, There was a bug in the initial version posted, but I fixed it and reloaded yesterday 12 Jul around 1pm. I am not sure, but if you downloaded before, it is wise to take the latest version. Sorry for inconvenience.
For the script load time, go to the menu 'Tools>Tools On Surface>About...' It is shown in the dialog box.

Gaieus,
You're probably right that the entity info is maybe reserved to the native Sketchup shape. Actually, I have no clue what to do in Ruby to catch a change in this Entity window. But if someone knows....
Normally all modifications can be done right after the shape is generated (and of course while drawing it). This applies to distance, angle, rings and nb of segments.

Thank you sir. I'm sure I didn't get the updated version but I will.
