      But It does not work in my PC

      Can you explain what doesn't work?
      Do you get errors?
      Are you missing menus?

      I use SketchUp8 - works for me.

      Didier:
      Instead of a modal window to set the preferences before you spray, how about leaving the window open so one can adjust the settings while you work?

      (Also: under OSX Webdialogs aren't true modal - they don't act like they do on Windows.)
      (The scrollbars in the webdialog should do away if do add body { overflow: hidden; } to the CSS. (or was it to the html element...? I think that might depend if you're using a strict doctype or not.)

        I tried to use the Spray feature - clicked on a face and I was warned it'd create 3000 instances. (I had selected a 1x1x1m cube)
        I said Cancel to abort the operation - the Ruby Console output:
        Error: #<LocalJumpError: unexpected break> (eval):2544:incs_warning'
        (eval):2088:in cs_n_points' (eval):1560:in create_geometry'
        (eval):1488:in onLButtonDown'

          Simon,
          C'est pas clair çà ???
          Nouvelle version 1.4, ancienne 1.3 obsolete, plus de fichiers, plus de lien.
          [attachment=0:mz8opdge]<!-- ia0 -->cs13.jpg<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:mz8opdge]

          Would be good to have a redirect there as well.

              Like I asked hebeijianke: what specifically is the problem?
              It's hard to debug an issue without knowing what the symptoms are.
              Exactly what doesn't work as expected and what was expected results/behaviour?

                Not sure if i'm having much luck with 1.4 version either. I'm using Sketchup Pro 6. The old 1.3 version worked great.

                Everytime I go to run the script, I select my component to spray, selected faces to spray onto. Other options left alone.

                I get a dialoge box saying "1000 trials to drop components done. Continue?". At this point it shows 1% complete on the taskbar, I click continue and get a dailoge "more than 2 minutes remaining to complete. Continue?" as soon as I click I get "more than 4 minutes remaining to complete. Continue?" and so on.... never actually creating any copies, just doubling the time with each click?

                  This dialog pops up when there are too much constraints (you drew your shape where there is no face that belongs to the layer mask for instance) and the script tries and tries to drop components and cannot.

                  This may be the cause of the problem. Check if your options are consistent.

                  I've found a way to use dialog.show{} instead of show_modal{} 😛

                  Keep the bugs comin', I'll fix 'em and publish a patch then.

                      Because you used a strict doctype the HTML DOM acts a bit different. When I applied the rule to the HTML element it worked:

                      <span class="syntaxdefault"><br />html </span><span class="syntaxkeyword">{<br /></span><span class="syntaxdefault">  overflow</span><span class="syntaxkeyword">;</span><span class="syntaxdefault"> hidden</span><span class="syntaxkeyword">;<br />}<br /></span><span class="syntaxdefault"> </span>
                      

                      I think that you can get rid of the inset frame if you set the scrollable argument to false when you create the WebDialog.

                        Hi folks,

                        Just a note to keep the thread on top of stack...
                        Update 1.4.1. of CompoSpray is available here: http://rhin.crai.archi.fr/RubyLibraryDepot/plugin_details.php?id=76

                        Mainly bug fixes, backward compatibility, non-modal dialog BUT a true "Ignore hidden geometry" option (thanks to ThomThom): spray can now ignore entities that are masked OR on invisible layers.

                        Next step: a directionnal spray 🎉

                          this is a sweet update. 😍
                          do you have an explanation of how to use the layer mask? 😳

                            Select a layer in the dropdown list and components will "fall" only on that layer...

                                  It looks very promising, but it does nothing. I can see the menu etc, but when I push the "spray" button; "the computer says: "No".... 😉

                                  Oh I'm working with v8!

                                    The compospray icon shows up, as does the toolbar, but when I click it nothing happens. Here's my error message from the ruby console:

                                    Error: #<Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - /Users/Fraser/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/CompoSpray/csSettings.html>

                                    (eval):269

                                    So it looks like it's missing an html file?

                                    Using OS 10.6, SU 8

                                    Thanks,

                                      It's looking in your user folder instead of the root folder where the plugin is installed.
                                      Have you installed some plugins into your user folder? In come cases that might confuse plugins.

                                        The only files under the user library is a podium script. Can I edit one of the files in the folder (CSS) to make sure it looks in the HD library folder rather than the user library folder? I'm not sure how a ruby script works, but this would be a great one to get up and running.

                                        Thanks for the help so far,

                                          hmm... if I remember correctly, podium can confuse some scripts.

                                          @didier: how are you locating your files? I find that basing all my paths on File.dirname(__FILE__) is the most reliable method. Sketchup.find_support_file doesn't seem to be that reliable as plugins might not be installed there.

                                            Hi,

                                            The HTML file isn't missing, because it is written (normally) each time the tool is launched, then loaded in the webdialog.
                                            @thomthom: Here is how I locate this file:

                                            @path_cs = Sketchup.find_support_file("Plugins")+"\/CompoSpray\/"
                                            	@settings_dialog = UI;;WebDialog.new("CompoSpray Settings",true,nil,100,100,100,100,false)
                                            	@settings_dialog.set_file(@path_cs + "csSettings.html")
                                            

                                            Does this not work on a Mac the same way than on a PC ??

                                            DB
