      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?

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

          TT .2.8.3.png
          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

            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

                  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

                      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 )

                        about Internet Explorer :

                          Your 3d Text Editor is out of date.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).

                                http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nswHPYi_dEw/SoWP9m4sr6I/AAAAAAAAH_4/BUtChw6LSK8/s400/P1000262.JPG

                                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.

                                    i downloaded and installed you plugin an TT_Lib_v2.8.3.rbz

                                    but then, when sketchup was launched, a message said i have to download TT_Lib2-2.8.0.rbz

                                    so i uninstalled TT_Lib_v2.8.3.rbz and installed TT_Lib2-2.8.0.rbz

                                    and then it worked

                                    you did a great job

                                    you managed to make a multilines editor...

                                    would it be possible to ...? 😛

                                    have the 3d text in a red/blue plan, instead of red/green?

                                    i would like to use your plugin to add comments to a scene, one comment per scene; usually, the camera is oriented so that vertical objects appear vertical

                                    So, it would be easier to read if the text was in the red/blue plan.

                                      no, i just realised that you can change the plan by writing on a face of the model; so to write vertically, you just have to find a vertical face in the model

                                        You shouldn't need to downgrade. Are you on Windows by any chance?
                                        Maybe you ended up with some files in VirtualStore...
                                        How did you install it?

                                          windows 7 64 bits

                                          installed using preferences > extensions

                                          downloaded vers 2.8.3 here
                                          http://sketchucation.com/resources/pluginstore?pln=TT_Lib

                                          but it didn't work so i downloaded the previous version using the link that appeared on my screen

                                          but it's OK now;works great
