It is a known serious issue with v2013.

And of course two docked toolbars can't occupy the same screen-space [which is something to do with quantum mechanics ] ...

I believe this is termed the "API Toolbar Exclusion Principle" ...

... which basically postulates that at any given time you can know whether (or not,) a toolbar exists, ... but not where it is located. ..and visa versa.

Try clearing your default browser's cache, and retry...

What do you mean, er how do you do it?

Gaieus

Normally, Ctrl+F5

Since you haven't given us your OS details etc in your User-profile ... let's guess...
Webdialogs in SketchUp use your computer's default browser - which is always IE on a PC and Safari on MAC.
Sometimes when you have reloaded SketchUp tools that use webdialogs you might get older versions stuck in the browser's 'cache', and so the newer version doesn't appear...
To clear your browser's cache use its tools...
On IE it's:
Ctrl+F5 OR F12 then Ctrl+R... OK to apply...
On Safari it's :
Preferences > Advanced tab.
Select: Show Develop menu in menu bar
Now from the menu bar click Develop > Empty Caches...

Being able to clear your browser's cache is a very useful ability.
Not for use just with SketchUp...

Have you got/installed the latest version from here ?
http://sketchucation.com/resources/plugin-store-download
This gives you the SketchUp based equivalent listings...

Your browser ought to access the SCF PluginStore site...
If it accesses other areas ?
Have you looked at your 'Internet Settings' to see if they block anything - like javascript ??

the SCF plugin store is providing a plugin that is compatible with SU 8 but not Su pro 2013. I am getting error like >>

"Error Loading File SectionPropCalculator.rb
undefined method `GetString' for nil:NilClass"

can someone help me out, this one is an important plugin for me, I need it at any cost. it was working big time with SU 8 , but after I installed Su 2013 , I tried installing the same via SCF plugin to install it but

this is the plugin

I'm going to make a guess that you have less plugins installed for SU2013? And that Section Properties Calculator is using the LanguageHandler function in SketchUp without require 'langhandler.rb' defined - something it could get away with if another plugin loaded before it used. If now, under your new SU2013 installation this plugin is first to load then that would explain the error.

SU2103 does not have any difference in the Ruby API from SU8 - so plugins should be working a like on both versions. So this would be an error that crops up due to difference in environment or setup.

I will correct the missing 'requires' in this script and repost it in the PluginStore as v1.1a
Watch for an update...

v1.1a is now there http://sketchucation.com/resources/pluginstore?pln=SectionProp
