thank you!

Hey y'all. I need some help. For whatever reason, LibFredo6 plugin is starting to crash Sketchup. (Yes I know it's this one because I systematically went through and tested sketchup with each plugin I have.)Anyone know a fix for it?

Now that I think about it, it MAY be something that it activates. All I really know is that if I delete it, Sketchup doesn't crash. But then I can't use curveloft and whatnot. ANY help is appreciated.

Hi,

the round corner tool seems like something i would use a lot. Unfortunatly i cannot get it to work properly. I have downloaded the LibFredo6 and placed it in the plugin folder (that is the .rb and the folder) and i also downloaded the round corner tool and also placed it in the plugin folder (the .rb and the folder). As i understand correctly it should then work. But nothing happens when i open SU. I'm working on a mac with SU7 pro.

Thanks
Ruud

Assuming the file/folders were extracted 'intact' and then put into the correct Plugins folder [Macintosh HD/...Lib/.../plugins] and not a spurious 'User' one... then a restart of Sketchup should auto-load the tool for you.
However, like many such tools this is an Extension and so it needs a one off activation, which is done through Preferences > Extensions.
Once it is activated its menu items and toolbar becomes available to you - if it hasn't auto-activated then the toolbar can be activated from the appropriate menu item too...

Are you sure it's installed properly - file and folder ?
Do you have the latest version ?

You have to meet us half way. Give us something to help you out. We can't see your computer from here and you've given us no clue as to what you've done short of downloading the files. Did you extract the zip file into Program Files/ Google/Google SketchUp 8/Plugins? Did you extract them correctly? Do you have admin rights to install files into the Plugins folder?

Post a screen shot of your Plugins folder showing the files installed correctly and we'll go from there.

These files don't do much on there own.
They are 'helpers' for many of Fredo's other tools, which don't work without the file and subfolder of files etc that form the 'Lib'...

hi dear ferdo , I have a little question ...

.. maybe it's a bad question and I know that it takes much time for you to write these features fur us ... thanks a lot for time you spend and offering your incredible codes freely to us ... thanks ferdo ..
my question is
how to disable time tracer and updater part due to have a faster startup and a lighter SU ?
I'm a ruby newbie .. but you codes are too complex for me to trace .. .. I just wanna to know the .rb files that does these extra works ...

I'm sorry for asking these .. I believe that these parts ( specially Updater module )are very useful for all users .. and thanks for codding these parts ferdo ..

thanks

You don't need to edit the ruby files.
Normally, go to the CheckForUpdate dialog box and enter 999 (days) in the 'next check' field.

Fredo

PS: 'Check for update' does not go to the Internet when SU Starts. It just checks the date to see if it should display the reminder, so it is very fast. The fact is that that the reminder is based on a WebDialog and the first web dialogs are used, it takes a little bit long (SU may load extra stuff or perform some operations in the background).

the.pjt · 19 Jun 2012, 20:50

thanks feredo ... I hade done that ( 999 ) several days ago .. but I alwase see the ruby image (update check ) at start up .. how about time tracer tool ?

thanks for answer and support ferdo

hi Fredo, Thanks for this work you've done

I have unzipped it to my plugins folder on C:/Program Files(x86)/google/Google Sketchup 8/plugins but for some reasons I just cant find it in the menus! I have also put LibFredo6.rb in the plugins. am I missing something?

kindest regards

Disco

Can't seem to get the toolbar up. I've followed some of the posts and checked its in the right directory, and also ticked the box in Sketchup.

Any help would be appreciated

Which toolbar can't you get to display?

The fredo sub menu under window. I've PM'd Fredo who has been kind enough to reply but so far I've not got to the bottom of it. I do have podium installed and fredo suggest it could be a clash with that?

Thanks for the reply Dave
