      in cmd.set_validation_proc (and other places) you want to give the full scope of the suitable? method since it is being called from SketchUp outside the scope of your module.

      Also, combine the MF_ bits.

      
      cmd=UI;;Command.new('TIG.Smart_offset'){self.dialog()}
      if TIG;;Smart_offsetter.suitable?()
      MF_ENABLED
      else
      MF_DISABLED | MF_GRAYED
      end

        Nice gift! Thank you and Merry Christmas! (Are we allowed to use it before 24.12.?)

            Thanks, knew it was obvious... This only affected MACs though ???
            This was collecting dust on a virtual dust, until Pilou reminded me that I'd written it, so sometimes things get 'forgotten'... ๐Ÿ˜’

                I am not sure - it was just a guess and I don't have a Mac. Did you try it? ๐Ÿ˜†

                  I don't have a MAC either. ๐Ÿ˜•
                  Driven's reported issue was on a MAC and Jeff had other issues on a MAC too...
                  Hopefully this recent v1.2 [...20121221b.rbz !] will address the suitable? check and MF_ issues with the menus/toolbar...
                  It still works fine on a PC, but then v1.1 did too ๐Ÿ˜• ๐Ÿ˜„

                          Hi Tig
                          i'm still getting the same greyed out problem.
                          is there anything i can type in the console or ?? to help figure out what the problem is?
                          thanks

                            Is there no difference at all - if you have nothing preselected, or one edge preselected, or one face preselected, or lots of things [including some edges] preselected ?
                            The menu/toolbar are only enabled if there's at least one face in the current selection.
                            The context-menu only appears if there's at least one face in the current selection.

                            Copy/paste+<enter> these into the Ruby Console and report the results:

                            with nothing preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()
                            with one edge preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()
                            with one face preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()
                            with lots of things [including some edges] preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()

                            with one edge preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.dialog()
                            with one face preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.dialog()

                            ๐Ÿ˜•

                              oops ๐Ÿ˜ณ
                              it actually is working now..
                              it's just the toolbar that remains greyed out at all times but the menu item becomes available once an appropriate selection has been made..

                              (which, for me personally, is fine.. i more likely than not wont want the toolbar anyway.. i think id use it with a modifier key added to my offset shortcut)

                                here are these results.. (since you took the time to write them.. i better take the time to report ๐Ÿ˜‰ )

                                  uh.. not sure what the deal is but..

                                  upon entering all of that stuff in the console, the toolbar is now working
                                  ๐Ÿ˜•

                                  [edit] but then.. i quit sketchup then relaunched and the toolbar is greyed out again regardless of selection.. the menu item is working though

                                    voodoo. definitely voodoo at work here.

                                    Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.

                                      ha.. that darn voodoo! ๐Ÿ˜„

                                      some more info:

                                      so here's what the deal with the toolbar is.. (in this example, i have 3 squares with faces drawn)

                                      โ€ขcmmdA (select all)
                                      โ€ขtoolbar remains greyed out (menu item is live)
                                      โ€ขdo something else (rotate, pan, etc)
                                      โ€ขtoolbar becomes active
                                      โ€ขdeselect all
                                      โ€ขtoolbar remains active (menu item greys out)
                                      โ€ขdo something else (switch tool, orbit, etc)
                                      โ€ขtoolbar greys out

                                      so it appears, on mac, that something has to happen other than simply selecting in order to jump start the toolbar into updating it's state

                                      dotdotdot

                                        Hey Tig,
                                        I am getting the same thing Jeff has. But since Jeff actually knows what he is doing, he can do the ruby troubleshooting. Will stay tuned to see what you fellas figure out.
                                        It works great on my windows machine at home.
                                        Thanks Tig

                                        Update
                                        Jeff says his works. It does not work on my mac.
                                        with nothing preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()

                                        TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()
                                        false

                                        with one edge preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()

                                        TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()
                                        false

                                        with one face preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()

                                        TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()
                                        true

                                        with lots of things [including some edges] preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()

                                        TIG::Smart_offsetter.suitable?()
                                        true

                                        with one edge preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.dialog()
                                        TIG.Smart_offset:

                                        PreSelect Face[s] !

                                        with one face preselected TIG::Smart_offsetter.dialog()
                                        Offset [+/-ve=out/

                                        My drop down "Tools" Menu works with a face preselected. The toolbar does not.
                                        Nothing works with just edges selected.
                                        If you need me to check anything else, and I do not get right back to ya, I am not ignoring you I am just here there and everywhere today.

                                            It works the same for me. With a face selected the drop down tools menu item will work but the single icon toolbar will not.
