Install SP3.2 on Mac for SU8
-
Hi I've been trying all morning to sort out my problem here but none of the suggested solutions seems to work for me.
I'm on Mac os 10.6.6
I have SU8 installed on my HD
I have downloaded Sketchyphysics 3.2 from herehttp://code.google.com/p/sketchyphysics/downloads/detail?name=SketchyPhysics3.2-Dec-2(MAC).zip&can=2&q=
And put it into the folder here: /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp
(Incidentally, this is where SU is looking for plugins. (following advice from another post, I entered this into the Ruby console and got that filepath back "Sketchup.find_support_file("Plugins")")
And...nothing happens. Actually I'm not sure exactly what should happen, but I'm guessing it should appear as a plugin in the plugin menu, or as a tool palette under the view>tool palettes menu.
I've gone into the preferences and ticked all the extensions too. Again, nothing.All the files are unzipped.
I uninstalled SU and deleted SP, then reinstalled them both. Still the same
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Andrew

the path you're showing is incorrect.
The SketchyPhysics files need to go inside the plugins directory.
You show: /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp
but you need: /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins -
Thanks.
Actually I was doing what you suggest, but was putting the whole downloaded folder in the plugins folder, rather than the contents of the downloaded folder.
Got it fixed now
Cheers,
Andrew

Are you on a mac or pc?
Once the plugin is downloaded unzip it if necessary. Copy or cut in from you downloads folder to this path if on a mac.
Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins
Then restart sketchup
