tig,
one of your fantastic plugins also includes a folder named TIGtools (extrude..byLathe). won't there be some confusion between the two? if i just replace the previous one all the pngs and other plugin-specific files will go away, will they not?please advise us on what to do.

theres an explanation from TIG over at EEbyRailv2.2, you need to combine all 4 TIGtool folder if you want all 4, there a screenshot from my Mac
see if you have the same problem and report back to TIG

for next version a radial move and /or scale will be very cool

There should only be one TIGtools folder ALL of the files - i.e. the lingvo and pngs, htm etc go in there en mass.
As you install more of my updated plugins that have button pngs etc I'll put them in there just add to it...Any advice on this 'blank button' issue ?
thanks, tig. i had already done so after john's suggestion. i must have done it well as i get a nice toolbar with 3 icons (no blank icon spot) and the 3 tools appear on my plugins menu.
i am afraid i have no clue about the 'blank button' issue. i am the quintessential mac user: i do not know much of what goes on underneath the screen.

Thank you so much TIG,
But you produce so quick than it is difficult to follow you. I was still working around and making some tries with "Extrude Edges by RailsV2" while you are outing extrudeEdgesByLathe v2.1, then v2.2, then v2.3!!Oups I succeed to jump on this one but "Platch!" extrudeEdgesByVector v1.1 come in!! I am desesperate , I'm crying mercy..
total respect,, simon.

Rather than update the whole set for one file here's an updated FR lingvo file that Pilou has sent me - it'll be included in the next major update too, but in case any French users would like it now please unzip it and put it into the ../Plugins/TIGtools/ folder and replace the earlier one.
extrudeEdgesByVectorFR.zip
A tip for general lingvo use:
If you have downloaded [or even made] a lingvo file for your language, then to find your currentlocale
id simply type or copy/paste this line into the Ruby ConsoleSketchup.get_locale.upcase
It will return EN-US=English, FR=French, ES=Spanish etc...
The lingvo file needs to have that id as a suffix if it is to be found and used instead of the default EN-US English version - e.g.extrudeEdgesByVector**FR**.lingvo
would be the French version.
Some users - like Pilou - have theirlocale
set to be EN-US even though they are French... they trick thedeBabelizer
into using the FR lingvo file by making a copy of theextrudeEdgesByVectorEN-US.lingvo
file as sayextrudeEdgesByVectorEN-US Copy.lingvo
, and a copy of theextrudeEdgesByVectFR.lingvo
file renamed asextrudeEdgesByVectorEN-US.lingvo
to overwrite the original - that way thelocale
tester finds it to be EN-US and so it uses that file which has been cunningly remade as a French translation !
If there are no lingvo files [e.g. you have deleted them] then the default language that's built into the script (EN-US) is used anyway...
This way you can have your tool's prompts and dialogs in any language you like - just make the file as XxxxEN-US.lingvo and it'll get used - so Esperanto [EO] is even possible... -
Here's v1.3 - Menu typo corrected and FR lingvo file updated.

just the fn file???

Yes - I now have the individual tools and the combo pack to keep synchronized so minor changes affect both.
There were more important changes to the EEbyRails tool...
I'm thinking of stopping the updates of each tool individually and doing the combo only ? -
TIG,
Would it be possible to get a slight tweak on this? The extrusion works great but I use it pretty often and the dialogs sort of break up the flow a bit for me. I wonder if it would be a big deal to have a version that doesn't ask you about reversing the faces and automatically explodes the resulting geometry.

Edit: Nevermind. I just found your post on Didier's ExtrudeLineTool thread. With your modification to get it to work in 2014, that's exactly what I needed. Thanks!
