New help installing a plugin
-
Tried to install engineerintoolbox.rb and failed miserably. Can anybody help
-
Could you please describe what exactly you did that led to this miserable failure? It's hard to help someone who does not help with helping...

Hi cgwar, hi folks.
Put the engineeringtoolbox.rb file in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins
If your computer is a 64 bits machine, use this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins
Restart SketchUp. The Engineering Toolboxchoice is to be found in the Plugins menu.
Just ideas.

I figured out what was wrong. Windows 7 was treating the file as a text file when I saved it. So the extension was .txt rather than .rb I changed the extension to rb and the toolbox installed correctly. The next issue was, the insert link was not working when trying to insert into a 2D template. I changed to a 3D template and I am climbing up the learning curve. I've only been using this for 2-3 hours. Thanks for the help!
