      In fact i believe this N Gon function shown only figures who are made with the tool "Polygon" πŸ˜‰
      And not geometric figures that you can see as Ngons πŸ˜‰

      Exactly - the selection tool doesn't look at the shape of the geometry, but filters the selection based on the types of entities SketchUp reports.

      When you select something in SU, the Entity Info window will say what type it is - all the filtering is based on these types.

          I can make so sense why you would not have a Selection Toys menu item under tools and various Context Menu entries (which depend on what you right-click)

          I was about to ask if you'd checked the Preferences for Selection Toys, but if you have not menu... I'm really stomped.

          Can you post a screenshot of your Tools menu?

          Hello Thomas!
          It happens with me also! You can see a screenshot here

          I see all posts but I can't resolve the trouble.
          apologies for my bad english...
          Thanks

            Check the Tools menu.

            Tools -> Selection Toys -> Enable Toolbar
            then after you do that - check the menu you showed in the screenshot.

                  It was working in V7, but I can't get Sel Toys working in V8. Feeling stupid for a number of reasons.

                  My configurtion of Sel Toys:

                  C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins\TT_Lib
                  C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Tools\TT_Select_Toys

                  After SU8 re-start:

                  no context picks for Sel Toys
                  no pick for Sel Toys in Tools menu drop down

                    Don't put plugins in the Tools folder.

                    There should be

                    C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins\TT_Lib\ - (inside, lots of .rb files)

                    C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins\tt_selection_toys.rb

                      OK. Thank you. I thought that since it is accessed by the tools menu..., but thinking is not my strong suite.

                      You must enable it from Tools->Selection Toys->Enable Toolbar before it appears under View->Toolbars->Selection Toys.

                      While the install didn't seem that clear to me, I didn't notice many install problems in the thread, so likely I am being thick. Perhaps because I assumed it was different than the norm when it is not. (Is the download count related to this, only 141 for such a useful tool? Or is that count only since the last update or somehow not reliable?)

                      Thanks, again.

                        Since last update - there's been thousands of downloads all together of the previous versions.

                        With my more recent plugins I've started to add more detailed descriptions of how they should be installed.

                          I will remove and try to re-install as now for me under Tools, there is no 'Selection Toys'; and so not surprisingly, under View->Toolbars there is no 'Selection Toys'. After entity pick, context menu does not show sel toy choices.

                          Folders TT_Lib and TT_Select_Toys are both in Plugins, as is file tt_selection_toys.rb.

                            You need to enable the toolbar under Tools -> Selection Toys -> Enable Toolbar

                                  Yes, a few. This is not current; I will update it soon.

                                    They refer to other plugins. You seem to have multiple issues though. You might want to consider starting from scratch..

                                      Yes, I thought they referred to other plugins, but you were kind enough to ask. I think I would much rather try to ferret out the problems with a few than mess with the score(s) that seem to be OK. After addressing the apparent issues, the current load error msg. is:

                                        hm... and you have the latest TT_Lib (version 1.x) ?
                                        Can you post a screen of the content of your TT_Lib folder?

                                          Well, certainly, but I feel I have taken enough of your time and will try to re-DL and re-install in the likely event that I boobied somehow along the way...

                                          Either way I will be back.

                                          Thank you.

                                            It looks like you have an old version of TT_Lib installed. The dates of the files, and the lack of many of the files from the latest version would suggest this. You can confirm by typing TT_Lib::Version into the Ruby Console and see what it returns.

                                            If you recently did download TT_Lib but did not get 1.2.0 then maybe you're getting a cached version.
