      Well, I guess "platform independent" was kind of a mislabeling on my part... It would be more accurately described as a "source-code only package for Windows"; no installer. And thus the wacky error message. Sorry about that.

      The Mac installer should have worked for you. It's supposed to be a PPC/x86 universal install. Are you using SU 6 or SU 7? It tries to install in the SU 7 directories, which could be the problem if you only have SU 6. Email me and I'll help you debug it. Sounds like there is at least one or two things for me to fix here.

      Thanks,
      P

        Oops, just noticed you list SU 6-7 in your profile. If wxSU did install successfully under SU 7, you should be able to just copy it over to your SU 6 directory. If that's not the problem, let me know.

              Hi Chris why don't make that inside your plug?

                 clselection.each{|e|###
                        if e.class==Sketchup;;Face
                          matx=mats[rand(mats.length)]
                          e.material=matx
                        e.back_material=matx if paint_back==1
                        elsif e.class==Sketchup;;Group or e.class==Sketchup;;ComponentInstance #########
                          matx=mats[rand(mats.length)]

                Mine just randomly paints the faces. Both have their uses.

                Ok I understand you pick facets in any order! ๐Ÿ˜ณ ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ๐Ÿ˜’ ๐Ÿ˜†
                It's a pity ๐Ÿ˜‰

                About colors
                The must will be to use a pallet who yet exist so no need to pick on a wheel color or enter numbers!
                like this for example

                then I copy past in one move I have that
                #334433 #3366aa #6699aa #aabbbb #778877
                or that with any difficulties in any Notepad or other
                #334433
                #3366aa
                #6699aa
                #aabbbb
                #778877
                So If you have a board to put that inside that will be perfect!

                If I can enter a simple list of color by copy past it be perfect!

                    Chris, thanks for the cool plugin!

                    Little feature request: would it be possible to make it paint groups and components as well?
                    (not inside them, just the component instance itself...)

                    At this moment, that would save my life (damn deadlines)..! ๐Ÿ˜•

                      I didn't installed it yet, but I want to ask a question before:
                      What's the difference between that two versions? (with and without WxSU) ?

                      Thanks.

                        WxSU is/was an add-on to offer new functionality to SUp but it proved to be a big flaky [and/or difficult to 'get right'] and so Chris wrote the alternative version that didn't need it...

                          Thanks, just downloaded it. I hoped it will work on groups/components too. Maybe Chris reads this and update the plugin? ๐Ÿ˜„
                          Other nice functionality would be to be able to "pick" materials/textures from model and/or from Material Browser and use them to paint the selected entities...

                            Thanks Chris

                            This is a very useful tool. Perhaps would could be improved by using su's dialogue color picker which I know you have probably thought of already.

                            You ruby God's are fantastic!

                                I'm actually sitting on a color picker I made that is built into SketchUp's view. Its pretty cool. I have not ever gotten around to using it for anything, maybe I should post the code so someone else can use it.

                                          Hey, everyone. Just wanted to show you that the method in the first page is still a good way to create a city. I had completely forgotten about it (even though I wrote it). I'm working on a project that required a background of my city, Guayaquil, and noticed that my city's OpenStreetMap is severely lacking 3D buildings, so I remembered this old method and gave it a go. Here's the result. I worked from an AutoCAD drawing of city blocks.

                                          This time I used Zorro 2 to divide the blocks into buildings, because the original Greeble plugin (not Chris Fullmer's Greeble) is nowhere to be found.

                                          I also used Eneroth's face creator to create the city blocks from the CAD file

                                          And instead of using the original Random Push Pull plugin (didn't bother to find out if it's still supported in SU 2017), I used Chris Fullmer's Greeble, but turning off the offset.
