      yes it looks perfect:) My problem is that the circular shapes I'm using in my design are differently scaled - some of them are 20meters in diameter so the 'jagged' faces are much more visible.

        That ring is drawn at a bit over 5 meters in diameter but I doubt it would look any different at 20m or 200m.

              Hello! I've downloaded this pluggin several times and just did again with this version, and it just won't work: I don't get the context menu option at all!

              My friends at uni are using it on the same version of SketchUp Pro (7.1.6859) without a problem... Here are some screenshots to try to explain. The context menu screenshot is from when I clicked on the section cut plane - there isn' anything missing from that menu, I only cut the screenshot a bit too close.

              Does it make a difference that I am still on the trial version of V-Ray?

              many thanks.
              Best wishes
              Isabelle

                Looks like you've got your plugins in the incorrect folder. Plugins for SketchUp should be in Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/Plugins.

                If I had to guess, I'd say Zorro 2 doesn't work either.

                  Thank you so much for this, it works now! How embarrassing - but it's good that it was this easy to solve. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

                  (And yes, of course Zorro wasn't working either!)

                      I know of no issues causing 'freezing'...
                      Open the Ruby Console.
                      Run the tool.
                      Any error messages in the Console or otherwise ?
                      Report back...

                          I see you are on v7 with Lion.
                          I know there were some fixes with v8M2 to address problems with Lion, perhaps that's the issue πŸ˜•
                          So... any Lion users out there [with v7/v8] who are getting error free use from this tool ??

                          I'm also now wondering if you have one of the problem scripts loading that can affect core class/methods ill-advisedly - these include SketchyPhysics, DrivingDimensions, MatchBox and some 'Solar' tool I cant bring to mind... Although some of these are PC only I think... This tool should workaround potential pitfalls made in its legitimate code by these files, but there might still be a trip-up somewhere. If you have any of these other scripts try to disable them and restart [move the .rb/.rbs files out of the Plugins folder temporarily].
                          Does this do anything better ?

                              Do you have the latest v8 = v8M2 ?
                              This specifically addressed some issues with Lion...

                                    I am new to this forum and seem to be experiencing a Sketchup crash every time I try to use section cut face. I am using Sketchup Pro 8 on a MacBook Pro i7 2.0 GHz with 8 MB RAM. I am not sure what the problem is. Has anyone else experience this?

                                            SUFractal has reported a clash/crash with SectionCutFace [and some other scripts] if BIMtools is installed - we suspect that new tool might be inadvertently messing with native class/methods used correctly by other scripts, OR it has faulty observers that are messing with things like group creation...
                                            Do any of you experiencing problems have BIMtools installed ?
                                            If so, try disabling it and retry/report back...
