      What version of SketchUp do you have installed? Do you have the latest maintainense release - released last week? It mentioned it fixed from faulty permission issues.

        Thanks very much for the update. I found the original version worked very well.

        Regards,

          Hey guys,
          For some reason, the "Install Extension" option is not available to me.
          Any fix for this? otherwise how do i go around installing the plugin?

          Im using Windows 7 64-bit, Google Sketchup 8 Pro.

          Attached a screenshot of the problem

            Please, make sure you update your SU installation to the latest build. This was introduced during one of the SU 8 maintenance releases. You apparently have an older version.

              I believe the option was introduced with the second maintenance release. There have been three more since.

              Didn't you get at least one notification that there is a new version of SU8?

                It was added in M2 - hence the requirement listing SU8M2.

                Firewalls might block the update notifications. Our office does this. All though, when the firewall was more relaxed, I noticed that most uses just clicked away the notification. Messagebox-blindness.

                  Thank you guys. Apparently my "check for updates" option in preferences was unchecked.

                  And till now i have been using sketchup without ever facing issues so never realized updates have come.

                  Thank you ThomThom, I finally managed to get your shell plugin working, it's been really useful.
                  I'm glad to have joined this community, has already helped me a lot with my modelling work.
                  Looking forward to give some input from my side too πŸ˜„

                  On a side note, I'm experiencing issues with sketchup becoming a little slower, i mean its lagging a little after the update, any input on this guys?

                    Could be that you have run into issues with messed up toolbar registry items. Are you comfortable navigating the registry?

                      Actually, I have no idea how to edit anything regarding the registry. But then I'm a fast learner.

                      Anyways the issue seems to have gone now after i restarted my laptop.

                          The Ruby Console is under the Window menu.

                            WOW!
                            I just installed your installer and I can now load all the .rb scripts that I couldn't before. I'm new to Sketchup and the ruby script thing was crazy - can't load .rb files - now I can.

                            Wonderful, thanks so much!

                                  Have you got the latest version of SketchUp 8? This feature was introduced in Maintenance release 2 only.

                                        Because you need SketchUp 8M2 or newer. πŸ˜’
