@Tig
Je peut no, Je peux yes

Pilou
I know!
I can..., thou canst..., he/she/it can..., we can..., you can... they can...? [can!]
My French is rubbish [but, so is your English! ]
Je le sais!
Je peux..., tu peux...,il/elle peut..., nous pouvons..., vous pouvez... ils/elles peuvent? [pu!]
Mon Français est des déchets [mais c'est que t'anglais! ]
In good humour...
Dans la bonne humeur ...

???
l'eau is water
la peau is skin
Both of these nouns are considered male, there is no reason behind this it is just the way the language works!
Similarly there are rules for female nouns such as:
un périphérique is a peripheral
un graphique is a graph........................

excellente' sorry wrong language...

now another question... I know this is kinda off subject. what is the implication of this plugin, does this allude to a future where these weights could be transfered through shear force or straight line force?

the reason I ask is that I look forward to a time when I can build roofs, beams or arches and have their loads followed and measured.

SketchyPhysics got me excited about the possibility... that a model could have gravity and therefore transfer weight and force towards a central point.

thanks for another great plugin...

Here's v1.1 http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=278046#p278046
The error in the error message is fixed!
Please retry...
To be on the safe site please ensure your file_path/skp_name contains no accented characters - SUp's Ruby is not happy with unicoded characters

will do now;

thank you

It's cof****g****reporter - you mistyped!

Bertier · 10 Oct 2010, 12:37

oops...

Bertier · 10 Oct 2010, 12:40

working but :

CoG Report File:
'F:\neo batitrad\Bar & Ka/console_CofG_Report.csv'
Cannot be written - it's probably already open.
Close it and try making the Report again...
Exiting.
nil

and it's not open, cause it's not written yet !

Try renaming the folder 'Bar & Ka' to 'Bar_Ka' - The '&' in the file_path might be the culprit ?
Also is your model SKP really called 'console.skp' ?
Try the version 1.2 which has more error messages, that might report what is really up...

It's a secret but there's a clue in his profile

If accents are forbidden, that is very annoyous for French Windows System
Because there is an accent for the principal Desk and for some of path! !!!
C:\Documents and Settings\Propriétaire\Bureau

PS I have not the use of this plug, but it's by curiosity

Of course now I obtain nothing
except this (i have saved my object with Cof as Untitled.skp
curious is the "/" and ""

cofgreporter
No such file or directory - C;\Documents and Settings\Propriétaire\Bureau/Untitled_CofG_Report.csv
CoG Report File;
'C;\Documents and Settings\Propriétaire\Bureau/Untitled_CofG_Report.csv'
Cannot be written - it's probably already open.
Close it and try making the Report again...
Exiting.
nil

Edit: That works when I use a path without accent for save my file!

TIG · 10 Oct 2010, 17:11

The Unicode paradox is an annoying bit of Sketchup's Ruby - some of the 'File' functions don't work properly if there are accented characters etc in path_names etc... Sorry!
At least we know the cause of the problem...
The \ / is also from the same methods when you get the filepath on a PC it has \ separators [/ on MAC], when you join on the new file_name it's always with the as the ;joining; separator / - but it still works OK...

Bertier · 10 Oct 2010, 20:05

there is no accent in my path ....

cofgreporter
undefined method `definition' for #Sketchup::Group:0xe005344

Have you save your file SKp in the samme path?
