        Cher Didier,

        Bonjour! Alors, here's the report: I can't find the line you are talking about in the script. Pas trouve! It must be in one of the two scrambled files. Je regrete! Please advise if there is another way I can help!

        best wishes from Berlin,

        Jason

          Is it possible to change this so that the wall (or whatever) you just created is undone in one go?

          See all of my SketchUp models here.

                  its possible to translate ? i mean i dont know much about ruby (nothing actually), then this interesting plugin i wanted to use in spanish... then i see in the file : HouseBuilder_extention.rb some calls... like

                  # Floor tool
                    cmd3 = UI;;Command.new(("Floor tool")) { Sketchup.active_model.select_tool HouseBuilder;;FloorTool.new }
                    cmd3.small_icon = "HouseBuilder/hb_floortool_S.png"
                    cmd3.large_icon = "HouseBuilder/hb_floortool_L.png"
                    cmd3.tooltip = "Creates a floor."
                    hb_tb.add_item(cmd3)
                  

                  then i want to know if i can replace the texts between "" without affect the plugin?. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

                    Text within "" or even '' can be replaced with anything else you want - i.e. a translation... UNLESS it's a path to a file xxx/xxx/xxx.png etc DON'T change anything else - the worse that can happen is it won't work ! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
                    Keep a copy of the original ! ๐Ÿ˜’

                      Hello!!
                      I'm a spanish user of Sketchup, i'm translating a lot of plugins for SU to spanish language.
                      I have finished the translation of House Builder ver. 1.0, and it works fine in Mac, only one problem, some units in the options of the tools are in inches, and i work in metres but it's a minor problem, the rest is OK.
                      I can't translate The House Builder ver. 1.2 because the files HouseBuilder.rb and HouseBuilderTool.rb are encoded, i have translated the HouseBuilder_extension.rb only, the icons appear and the tooltip too in spanish, but don't works in Mac, it appears the same problem:
                      Error al cargar archivo HouseBuilder_extension.rb
                      private method `split' called for nil:NilClass

                      I would like upload the Spanish version of House Builder v. 1.0 for all users and the others plugins. Please, tell me how.

                        Hi,
                        Open the file in a text editor and go to line 34. It reads like this:

                        su_path = Sketchup.find_support_file("Sketchup.exe").split("Sketchup.exe")[0]
                        

                        The problem is that there's no ".exe" files on Mac. Try to remove ".exe":

                        su_path = Sketchup.find_support_file("Sketchup").split("Sketchup")[0]
                        

                        and see if it works.

                        Regards,

                        DB

                          Not specifically to do with Didiers metric version, but I recently posted a few bug fixes relating to door opening size/position and that infuriating beep every time you context menu on http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=26858

                          I'm thinking of breaking out the different functions and rewriting some of the less pretty code but to be honest I find Ruby such an unpleasant system to work in that it rather puts me off. Maybe I should just build an interface to Smalltalk.

                            Any word on fixes for Metric 1.2 Mac version?
                            the files are scrambled, and i can't find any reference to sketchup.exe in the unscrambled file. could really do with a metric wall builder...

                                  Hi,
                                  Here is an 'unscrambled' version of the main script, with no reference to Sketchup.exe.
                                  Hope it will work on Mac.
                                  Regards,


                                  Overwrite House_builder_extension.rb in your Plugins folder with this one.

                                    Being in the US I would love to have the functionality of the new toolbar based package in US units. I have already modified the txt file to make it work as though it were US units. Is there a all foot-inch version on the horizon?

                                    Thanks

                                      I guess the "original" was made to work with imperial untis. Try this:

                                      or this one maybe:
                                      http://rhin.crai.archi.fr/rld/plugin_details.php?id=185

                                      Gai...

                                        Thanks for the info it is perfect. I would like to add to the list and expand it. I will let you know how it goes.

                                        Thank you,

                                          Didier & Gaieus,

                                          I have worked with the version you recommended for a little while now and love the potential. However, there are a few things that it is lacking:

                                          It does not read from the txt file like the new version.

                                          It does not have the stock list function like the new version.

                                          Is it possible to add this functionality of the imperial version?

                                            Well, I have never used either version (and I am as good at programming in ruby as you seem to be). I only knew about that plugin but that's all where my potential help ends I am afraid...

                                            Gai...
