      TIG, I shut down SketchUp and restarted it. It doesn't give any errors this time running in Fractional so I don't know why changing units affected the results. I didn't get any other error messages before. It still doesn't create branching and the red lines don't show up. Perhaps the author will refine the plugin further and I'll give it a try then. I've got too much other stuff to do for the moment.

          Hi,

          Replaced the tool as suggested,

          Ruby Window output on activating plug in is

          Error: #<ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (0 for 1)>
          /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/SketchupIvy/tool.rb:87:in activate' /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/SketchupIvy/tool.rb:87:in select_tool'
          /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/SketchupIvy/tool.rb:87

          When clicking to grow it is this

          /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/SketchupIvy/tool.rb:15:in add' /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/SketchupIvy/tool.rb:15:in getExtents'
          /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/SketchupIvy/tool.rb:71:in refresh' /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/SketchupIvy/tool.rb:71:in onLButtonDown'
          /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/SketchupIvy/tool.rb:15

          Regards

          Sam

              Thomthom, i have changed the plugin to the root /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp [n/SketchUp/plugins] (generally i haven't problems with the plugins if i put them in the other root) and i replaced the tool.rb in the Ivy subfolder, but the plugin don't works, this is the new message in the Ruby Console:

                        The Tool class activate doesn't have arguments ( initialize can)

                        def activate(view)
                          puts view
                        end
                        

                        line#88 et al is superfluous and could be omitted in its entirety ? Why give it 'view' simply to print to the Console?
                        It could be

                        def activate
                          puts Sketchup.active_model.active_view
                        end
                        

                        with little use??

                          Hi Robert111

                          Just convert the lines to tubes, create an ivy leaf component and use the fur plugin - you wil need a bit of trail and error but it works ok.

                          Regards

                          Andre

                            Thank you!!! I couldnt for the love of anything find out whats wrong! I guess the activate method is fired on initialization. stupid me. Top Post attachment updated

                                Thanks for sharing this plugin. πŸ˜„ I have been waiting a while to see someone implement the ivy generator with SketchUp.
                                Is it supposed to work well with any units? If my units are inches, it seems to work ok. But if they are meters, not so much. 😞

                                          Hi Robert

                                          I use a leaf component that came with the plants from Solo so I cannot share it here but you can find a lot of ivy on 3D Warehouse. Just load the component somewhere in the drawing and select "make from component" in fur plug-in - you'll see your component listed there. Hope this helps!

                                          Cheers

                                            @Mac Users: Really sorry about the plugin not working. I have absolutely no clue what the issue is, but I will borrow a mac this weekend and see what i can work out πŸ˜‰

                                            @Andre: Thank you! Those renders looks great. What plugin do you use? Im currently looking at the distribution of leaves, and that lookes great πŸ‘

                                            I dont know when the next update will be released, but heres a little teaser of whats to come.

                                            cheers
