              You might have to install it from the Extension Warehouse?

                On my laptop was the "sandbox.rb" available. I now have it copied into the plugin folder on my desktop PC. Now I get this error message.

                  The new sandbox has both a su_sandbox.rb and an su_sandbox folder.

                        Have you ensured you've updated your plugins?

                          A member three years and you haven't worked out that just saying something doesn't work doesn't help. Nothing in your profile either to give any clues.

                          Have you installed it properly, have you installed the latest one have you installed the latest lib for it do you have full permissions are you holding your mouth the right way.......my car doesn't work today can you tell me why

                              Interesting to note that I got my first sales pitch from Trimble (for a laser level) - 1/2 day after giving up my info to purchase an upgrade.

                              So did you buy it? Trimble make the best laser gear around...

                                I just upgraded to SU 2013 but cannot figure out how to install all the plugins from before (especially Curviloft).
                                I am running a MBP OSX 10.8.4
                                Trimble online support tells me to copy plugins from SU 8 plugins folder and to:
                                "Navigate through to Application Support/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins. If there is no "Plugins" folder, you will need to create one.
                                Well, my question is then how to just 'create one'? That bit of advice is not given...

                                  in the OSX finder choose "File > New Folder" (Shift+Command+N) and type a new name in the name field already highlighted.

                                    don't do that... as soon as you start SU v2013 it makes the folder for it's own plugins so it has to exist

                                    but, it is in the 'User' Library not the 'old' location, which was a 'HardDrive' Library

                                    a lot of plugins have been updated to take advantage of 'new' features, just get the latest versions, it's less painful in the long run...

                                      Hi, I can't seem to sign in into the extensions warehouse, has anyone else experienced this problem? Any solutions?

                                      Edit: Who ever came up with this lame warehouse idea, you got to be out of your mind, this is unfinished or incomplete to say the least. Leaving me with a big Mess for 95 bucks! Thank you so much.

                                        Only one issue with Sketchup Make Free:

                                        Some time I like to run in 16 bit color mode for speed for the internet and the uses of sketchup.

                                        It been a good meathod for some time now (6,7,8 work ok)

                                        Now that the Sketchup 2013 came along I having a problem with draw text labels with my Windows Vista

                                        Does any buddy else, has this issues?

                                        pic_0002.jpg

                                        PS: Sketchup Make is the best so far

                                        (if you test this out, make sure you exit out of sketchup when changing the color modes)

                                          Problems I seem to be having and I don't see others having or complaining about these problems.

                                          1. To me it seems it takes more care to make a selection on a toolbar icon. I have to be spot on, and slower on the click than V8. A lot of times, I think I have selected a function only to find that the icon hasn't started the plugin.

                                          Is is possible that the program has been modified and requires a more precise selection on the icon and is slower in determining that the icon has been clicked.

                                          1. The inference engine does not pick a selection as easily as it did in V8. Today as an example, I couldn't find the center of an edge with the pencil tool or the tape measure. I have to spend time, that is moving slower over the area, and multiple tries to find and end or center.

                                          I did note, that on the center, what appears to be the center has a red spot, but not the center blue spot. So I am not sure if I have found the center on some other point with the inference engine.

                                          The move tool is not picking up selections very well also. I find after selecting a corner that I am off a little requiring another selection and another move.

                                          If I select the group, it will find the point of interest quicker than if I don't have the group object selected, not talking about moving here. Didn't have this problem in V8.

                                          1. Still having bug splats after moves or rotation, requiring multiple saves. Putting TIG "Archiver" to max use.

                                          2. I am back on the desktop. Having had the program to give a bug splat like it did on the laptop two weeks ago. Note, laptop, W-XP, desktop, W-7-Home. Using the same set up, a USB drive to store my work.

                                          If you don't know, you can't fix. Trying to help, not bitch, although I know that is a fine line between the two.

                                          Thanks in advance for you time.

                                            Ken, I ran across a couple of the issues you mention, 1 and 2 I think are related to Open GL settings.
                                            I can't explain why, but it seems that adjusting the settings can correct the issues.
                                            I mostly use keyboard shortcuts so I didn't really notice it all the time but it did start to annoy me, so I went looking and found this fixes it for me....

                                            Go Window/Preferences/OpenGL and tick "Use maximum texture size" it will give you a warning but do it anyway. (if it's already ticked then untick it)
                                            Click ok, probably best to exit and reopen SU and see if it has fixed it for you. If it has, you should be able to untick use maximum and it will still work.

                                            Seemed to work for me, hope it does for you.
