sents=[]
    	ss.each{|e|sents.push(e)}
    	  copy_group=Sketchup.active_model.active_entities.add_group(sents)
      group_miner(copy_group.entities)###v3.1
        new_group=copy_group.copy
      group_miner(new_group.entities)###v3.1
...

The last line is #266.
It seems that there is nothing in the selection to copy... BUT if there is nothing then an earlier part of the code should trap it with an error, starting at line #109


    def activate
        ###Sketchup.send_action("showRubyPanel;")
        self.reset()
        ss=Sketchup.active_model.selection
        if ss.empty?
            Sketchup;;set_status_text("Mirror; NO Selection !")###
    		UI.messagebox("Select Something BEFORE Using the Mirror Tool.")###v2.8
            Sketchup.send_action("selectSelectionTool;")
            return nil
        end
...

Have you messed up the code with the translation ?

I haven't done changes in the code only i have translated the UI.messagebox and the text of the popups windows, i have probe with the mirror 3.3 original version (english) and don't works too.
I don't know if there is a conflict with others plugins.

Can you try it with the 'Ruby Console' open and post all error messages...
This is a puzzle...

Oxer · 25 Oct 2010, 22:15

I have found the error!
There is a conflict with SketchyPhisics 3.1, remember i work on Mac OSX.
Excuse me, it not was a problem in the plugin there were a conflict.

Is there a solution to solve this conflict?

Here's v3.4 with some more code tweaks that might stop bugs...

I know this is an operator error. I have noticed if you press the delete key instead of the return, the plugin crashes. Is there a way to capture the delete key so it will not crash Sketchup.

Yes, I know I should be more careful.

Thank you for your plugin

I have replaced an archaic version of the Mirror tool with your new one and see that the right mouse context choice is now gone and only the icon in the toolbar is there. Could you please re-intoduce the necessary lines in the code to enable it to appear in the context menu....

Sorry but i am a creature of habit and the use of the icon interrupts my usual workflow...

Thanks in advance.

Sorry about that...
I disabled it temporarily whilst I was doing something else!
Here's v3.5 that has it reintroduced...
