      Thanks Thom...I just installed the newest version..I'll let you know if it helps.

      If not, I will sort my .rb files by date of creation and go backwards through the list removing one at a time, until I find the culprit.

          Hey guys,

          Some questions for the folks who are having this problem:

          1. What operating system are you using?

          2. What exact version of SU are you running?

          3. The problem is described as "right click" menus. Is it only Ruby items that are grayed out, or are all of them grayed out?

          Hopefully we can track it down...

          Cheers,

            When I saw it due to my Selection Toys plugin it showed itself in SU6 and SU7 (both updated to the latest version - sorry, don't recall the exact number, but I know it was the latest). And on XP SP3 machines. It started with some menus greying out and slowing increasing in number until all menu items, including non-ruby items becoming disabled. The screenshot in one of the previous posts show this.

            It seem to be various reasons for this issue - but the most likely method to reproduce it would be to install my Selection Toys plugin. The code that caused it is still in the latest version - just commented out.

            Seems to be more likely to occur on larger models - with a number of layers and after a while of use. (might also occur quickly on smaller models.)

              This is it!This faded context menu is driving me mad.
              I guess it started 2 days ago and the cause is one of those newest rubies (2 weeks maximum). The number of bugsplats also rose exponentially :
              Tomorrow I'll try to replace the the plugins folder with
              the older one.

                  No- I didn't have it installed. Meanwhile I deleted pnts2mesh.rb (fredo's proxies will be next 😄 )

                    Installed the newest Selection Toys and still having the same problem.

                    It happens without warning...usually 5-10 minutes into a session.

                    I'm running SU7 on Vista.

                    All the right click items become disabled...not just rubies.

                        We see this on our XP SP3 machines at the office.

                              Hi EarthMover,

                              I am unfamiliar with the different toolbars you are using and am curios what they are:

                              1. the second column from the left - I recognize Vray and Twilight render. what are the others below them?
                              2. the bottom most toolbars?
                              3. 2D tools!? searched from them and couldn't fine them...

                              I remember seeing a thread with a ruby script toolbar pictures? anyone remember something like that?

                              Sorry I can't help with your problem 😄 good luck with that!

                              Thanks!

                                  Anyone happen to get to the bottom of this? I was hoping the update to 7.1 would fix it, but to no avail. I have been using sketchup like this for months now. In order to get to the contextual menu I have to access it through the bottom of the Edit menu and all of these work....however I still lose all right click functionality shortly after starting on a new session. Hard to discover the culprit, because it doesn't happen right away. I'd have to go through 200 scripts one at a time and then use SU for 5-10 minutes to see if it is the issue. Would take forever. Hoping someone happened to stumble on to a cure. (Fingers crossed)

                                    The last i heard, it had been found that right clicking the same face lots of times (10-20) consecutively will bring up this bug, havent heard about a solution yet, though.
