[Plugin] Architect Tools

TIG

Could it be some 'Compatibility Files' mess up in tandem with Rick Wilson's 'Organizer.rb' [which I spy in the list] which is stupidly loading files from subfolders 'out of turn' [which incidentally seems to have been removed from Smustard.com ]
If he has to use that tool, he must understand the current onus it places on him to add files into every tool's subfolder to prevent the contents auto-loading 'support' files, either out of turn, or when not needed...

Nice catch! Organizer sneaks up upon me again! (Where's that update Rick??)
Yes, that explains all these loading errors!

There's some strange errors here. Already initialized constants seem to indicate it's being loaded twice. Maybe your're running into VirtualStore problems.
Have a look at this thread: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=48399#p434453 You can use that tool to quickly check if you have some files that have ended up in the VirtualStore.

yitzhar

i have just chacked with the store plugin ... doesnt have it in it.
still the same error apears.

TIG

Do you have the 'organiser.rb' file in the Plugins folder ?
If so, then remove it and restart/retry...

yitzhar

no dont have organiser.rb ?

TIG

When you manually use load 'tt_plan_tools.rb' you will get some warnings about Constants already set, because the tool has already set them when it auto-loaded as Sketchup started, and you are warned about resetting constants [although you are allowed to do so anyway!].

Then it seems to be having issues reading/setting 'defaults' ?

Have you tried running Sketchup as an Admin ?

Have you double-checked that you/ALL have FULL security permissions to the Plugins folder and all of its contents including subfolders and their contents ??

No 'Compatibility Files...' button/links at all ?

Have you edited the scripts .rb file and then saved it? Perhaps corrupting the encoding ?

Next: Screenshots of Plugins and relevant Lib subfolder showing all of the contents and the folder's paths in top-bar.

yitzhar

I didnt change the script at all, and i have full admin access to everything...
and didnt understand what you ment in the screen shot ? what do you need ?

thomthom

Can you try what TIG suggested? Typing load 'tt_plan_tools.rb' in the Ruby Console.
That should give a better error message that includes line and position number which might give us a clue.

Btw, what version of TT_Lib2 do you have?

yitzhar

the massage is the one i wrote in the page i copy paste it in the error question.
the tt_lib2 is the latest i think its 2.6

thomthom

See my PM reply and see if the next version of TT_Lib helps.

yitzhar

That would be posible in 5 hours from now when i finish working at the office
but thank you i got the test and i would write you later on.

yitzhar

wow - good job !!!
the problem solved with the new tt_lib2 ...
thank you very much.

thomthom

Excellent!

Version 2.0.0

See first post for more info.

I don't expect people to immediately work out how to use these tools. They are very specific to my workflow with modelling site plans.

This release has been done for a long time, but I've not had time to create the videos and description for it yet. Still haven't, but it should come soon. ("Soon" is as precise as I can be.)

utiler

Gee, that got my attention!!!! Can't wait for the videos, Thom!!!!
