      I have an error that comes up at the startup of SU, also have downloaded several plugins to the plugins folder that are not appearing anywhere.
      Ok, the ones that I have installed are PipeAlongPath, TubeAlongPath, something that shows up in the plugins dropdown menu "convert arcs,circles,curves,lines to cylinders".
      There are some that I downloaded to the plugins folder that are not showing up anywhere, not even the tools menu.
      First of all, when I start SU, I get an error on the screen that states "Error loading file: cfl_shape_bender_loader.rb, No such file to load progressbar.rb

      Also in my SU plugins file I downloaded the following plugins that showup nowhere, why?
      angle_between.rb
      plane_angle.rb
      df_shape_bender_loader.rd and it's program.

        Go to smustard.com and download progressbar.

        Download the free D'oh Book for SketchUp πŸ“–

          I replied in your other thread...

          The progressbar.rb script adds a 'progress-bar' method to the tool [and some other tools too] it's free to download from Smustard.com [it does say with the tools download link you also need that file installed πŸ˜‰ ]
          Some Rubies - like angle_between.rb - do nothing noticeable by themselves, but they add extra methods to one or more other scripts needed for calculations etc... The clf_shape_bender_loader.rb is ashort script that loads its main .rb file found in its subfolder [that you should have in the Plugins folder] - that's currently failing to complete its loading because there's no progressbar.rb file to load [yet] - get that and put it into Plugins and the errors should cease.......

            Thanks guys, TIG: I just noticed that. I just thought that I would put that question on another thread in case you didn't get back to the other one.
            I am going to try it now.
            Thanks again.

            P.s. 3Skeng does not have a free version, according to an email I just received back.

              Okay, only additional thing that now shows up in the plugins dropdown is Chris Fulmers shape bender (which I can't seem to get to work, probably me). Neither angle_between.rb, or plane_angle.rb show up anywhere.
              Sorry guys, but I do appreciate the help.

                As I thought I'd explained.... scripts like 'angle_between' and 'plane_angle' WON'T necessarily "show up" - they are used by other tools - just because you have a script loading it doesn't mean you'll get a menu item - in fact some scripts can load more than one menu item whilst others provide 'support' for other scripts 'anonymously' and others only appear on context-menus or must be run by typing their specific command into the Ruby Console........
