[Plugin] 3D Text Editor

no , I haven´t . Nevermind , I managed to get it work again . Thanks

How? What fixed it?

JuanV.Soler · 19 Jun 2013, 22:10

I avoided the message of the need to install the 2.8.3 version and just closed that window .

But where is that version ?
I tend to think that it is not in the Extension Warehouse for the moment .
The one to download must be a previous one or something .
Thus the message of updating and thus that the Editable 3D Text still works the same for me .

thanks

The version is there - and it has some important fixes for 3d text editor.

You might have to remove TT_Lib2 before reinstalling. There could be some files that are in use when SU tries to update.

thomthom I have done it several times to no avail .
It remains a mystery to me .

Just to be sure - if you try this utility: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=48399

And use "Check Virtual Store" - what happens then?

Also, what is the output of TT::Lib::VERSION if you type it into the Ruby Console?

thomthom · 20 Jun 2013, 10:24

But you still get the warning? Did you use the VirtualStore check utility?

JuanV.Soler · 20 Jun 2013, 10:24

now that´s funny , it says :

so I do have installed the latest version after all

I have the virtualstore plugin installed in the folder but it does not show in Plugins SketchUp aplication so I cannot run it

JuanV.Soler · 20 Jun 2013, 10:27

no more warnings no . I think that the trick was to ignore the first warning after installed
.
As I edited my latest post : I have the virtualstore plugin installed in the folder but it does not show in Plugins SketchUp aplication so I cannot run it

? Really? No menu under the Plugins menu?

JuanV.Soler · 20 Jun 2013, 11:33

no , no menu under the Plugins menu

thomthom · 20 Jun 2013, 11:54

what happens if you type this into the ruby console: TT::Plugins::VirtualStore.check_virtualstore
?

The **Text Editor**still works with the same workaround of unticking the extrude function to get the heights modified

thomthom · 20 Jun 2013, 14:19

What does TT::Plugins::Editor3dText::PLUGIN_VERSION report.

And what version of Internet Explorer do you have installed?

(Lots of questions here - but I'm baffled by what is going on here. It should be working... :s )

JuanV.Soler · 20 Jun 2013, 16:11

it reports :

about Internet Explorer :

now those are all my credentials

thomthom · 21 Jun 2013, 07:37

Your 3d Text Editor is out of date. It should be 1.1.3 - if you install the version from EW.

Hi Thomthom, thanks again for an awesome plugin. I have an idea for a feature that some might find useful if they're doing visualization work - vertically stacked text (like the following, perhaps).

Any way, just a thought! Thanks for creating so many awesome tools, it's inspiring. I'm slowly learning code, and it's great to see what you've written.

Thanks!

Matt

FWIW, you can already make vertically stacked text. It would be nice to be able to control things like leading and kerning, though.
