              Y'know... I don't recall... BUT I have been avoiding using onKeyDown for TAB-key for MAC compatibility for ages by using onKeyUp key==9 etc... I even teach it to my students πŸ˜’
              I've search my usual haunts... and not found a link but there must be something somewhere as I can't have dreamed up the problem alone...

                  When you link back to something you need to get the link from the 'small-file-square' below the post's title Capture.PNG that way you link to the very page, not the thread itself... http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=297720#p297720 works
                  http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=33875 does not.

                    Of course it works. I'm not sure what problem you are having.

                      No - these link to different posts...
                      Click on the two I gave to see the difference.
                      If you have your posts sorted in chronological order it looks the same [at least initially] because the first post is at/near the top BUT if you sort in reverse order, like I do, so that the most recent posts are shown first then the initial download thread is not accessed by the click as it's by now on another page... πŸ˜•
                      In passing... I not that you latest version of dline2 missed a 'start_operation' around line #287 so it's still not v6 compatible... πŸ˜’
                      It's effectively defining 'double-click' to be taken as 'enter' - I note that ones 'Double ligne' and the others 'Double line' are also probably typos left over from Didier...

                          It 'wasn't working' because it wasn't 'linking to the post' but rather linking directly to the thread itself which was somewhat redundant as you were linking from within it already - not the desired result I must assume... πŸ˜‰

                            I only intended to add some user-interface niceties such as persistent options for selfish reasons, and didn't look too closely at the other parts of the script. I did add version checking to the other start_operation, thanks.

                                      No one really responded when I asked the question about begin-rescue clause with start_operation. Probably a poor choice for a topic sentence on my part.

                                      Great minds think alike... fools never differ...
                                      I agree that this begin-rescue way is less prone to error like your .version v. .version_number typo which screwed Pilou's v6...

                                      I'm sticking with the explicit version check because it is self-explanatory. The reader can understand from the code that something has changed in SketchUp version 7.0.

                                      The begin-rescue clause is cryptic, and doesn't explain anything.

                                        I have downloaded and installed the original dline plugin on Sketchup 8 Pro and it seems to work fine. I have installed it on Sketcup 8 free version and it does not show up in the Draw tab. Is this plug in good only on Pro or should it work in the free version?

                                        Also....
                                        I have also installed the dline2 plugin and when I try to use it the settings window does not open up when I select it from the Draw menu like it did on dline.
                                        Help me out someone!

                                          The trick is to press the TAB key anytime you want to set new parameters for your "walls". It's an enhancement by J. Foltz but I forgot to display it in the status bar.
                                          I've published a patch for dline2 on SU8 here: http://rhin.crai.archi.fr/rld/plugin_details.php?id=804
