The most common problem when this plugin set doesn't work is that it hasn't been installed correctly. This has been explained repeatedly in this thread. Please review it. You'll find the help you need.

I think we should re-release the plugins as RBZ files to encourage people to use the Install Extension feature in SketchUp.

@TT
I agree, OR at least get them to use your 'Simple Plugins Installer'... -

I agree, OR at least get them to use your 'Simple Plugins Installer'...I don't think we can get anyone to do anything. Except by making the packages RBZ files - that should make most people not just unzip the files randomly.
I can see another issue, a horde of questions on what to do with RBZ files. But I think that's the lesser evil as incorrect unzipping can cause errors which is harder to recover and detect. We can just reply with a simple link to a step by step thread for installing RBZ files.

What other complex tools do you have loaded when using the EEby... tools?
A few are known to change native-API methods, or have observers which are clumsily made and cause splats with innocent tools; when, like this one, they are adding groups etc...
Is it a 'hang' [white-screen/unresponsive but it will complete given time] or a full 'Bugsplat' crash where Sketchup closes...
Are there any messages in the Ruby Console ?
Try disabling any other tools that you might suspect [temporarily move their .rb files out of the Plugins folder, adding them back [in steps] and restarting Sketchup until you have found the culprit[s]].
There is a list on SCF of 'quarantined' scripts that are known to cause problems [like the old-version of Sketchy Physics etc]. Some recent 'BIM' tools are also known to add observers that can make big trouble even when they are not running, because their observers are always 'watching' and causing issues for others...
A screenshot of any messages and/or the Plugins folder would help fix the issue, which I suspect isn't EEby... but other things interacting with it... -
Thanks a lot for your quick reply TIG.... i don't have many complex tools... the only one i can think of is power tool... but i remember this happened before too... and i have installed this tool recently....
here is a screenshot of my plugin folder... Bezier line script was installed after my first comment .. i thought may be there is some issue with native arc or its not welded so i decided to use that .. but it also didn't work.....
there aren't too many complex tools... but i will do and install a fresh copy...
but if you can suggest that which script is creating the problem...
and its full 'Bugsplat' crash ... like i run the script its running and suddenly it closes and sketchup ask for the crash report..
-
Most of them look OK, a few I am unfamiliar with...
So first try disabling the PowerBar tool rb file, restart and retest EEby...
[make a temporary 'Disabled' folder inside the Plugins folder, and move them into it]
You also have a number of Renderer tools loading, perhaps disabling some of those would help...
Otherwise disable ~half of the other rb files, restart and retest EEby...
If it still splats you know it's an issue with one of those rb files that are in Plugins so disable ~half of those etc and retest.
This way you can quickly zoom in on the clashing script.
If the issue stops after disabling some files you know the culprit is in the moved set, so reverse the move of ~half and again zoom in on the culprit...
You only have about 40 rb files to test [and most of those look innocent enough] so dong things 'by halves', that's 40 >> 20 >> 10 >> 5 >> 3 >> 1
That's a maximum of ~5 steps to test all of them, but you're likely to find the issue much quicker...
Let us know it you find the problem...
-
Try to disable the render engines. They can often lead to crashes - especially if you have multiple loaded at the same time.

I know that podium doesn't play well with others. I'd start with that, I had the same issue with podium.

HI Tig just a quick question.
Is it possible to set defaults for the various popups at the end?For example I use EEBR quite often to create several sections and often the answers, no, yes,yes,no,yes,no will be the same for the next however many pieces I have.
As this wing shape has 7 sections it means a lot of clicking.
-
No, but you don't need to move the mouse and click the button.
Hitting the space-bar is equivalent to clicking the default button - here 'Yes' - or on an EN Windows PC pressing the Y key is also the same; pressing the N key takes the opposite button - here 'No' - ... presumably other locales have different, but similar shortcuts... -
OK, thanks Tig, yep I use the keyboard, just wanted to be sure I wasn't missing an easy setting.

Hi TIG!
Just want to let you know that I'm having a fabulous time testing out the various Extrude Tools in your plug-in! The tool works great -- and for a newbie, it's nice to have all the little "reminders" of what to do next. Thank you very much for your contribution to the community. I do truly appreciate your hard work!
