      I'm getting the "No Component Selected" error message, even when a component IS selected in the drop-down menu. The error is occurring across different files and components. Any suggestions?

      Sorry if this issue has previously been addressed.

      Thanks!

        Hi Didier,

        I'm getting this error when trying to add CompoSpray to my plugins library that's hosted on my company's network drives (utilizing Fredo6's 000_Additional_Folders script). Any suggestions on how I can fix it so I can avoid the error, and still deploy the plugin network wide?

        I'm trying to learn Ruby for SketchUp, so let me know if my assumption is correct. The error is resulting from CompoSpray being directed to look at C:...Plugins for the language file instead of the location that Additional Folders is redirecting it to, correct?

        Thanks!

        Same error here on Mac... Only in the new version.

          PM the author - Didier - he may have forgotten about fixing it...
          He has compiled his entire code set in the subfolder - so it's not readable.
          It's a good idea to setup a reference to the folder path in readable code [e.g. the loaded rb file] that the rbs then uses.
          Ruby's FILE doesn't work inside rbs files, but he could have set in the loader rb...
          $cs_Folder=File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__),'CompoSpray')
          and then used that is his rbs compiled code... instead of the hard-coded
          File.join(Sketchup.find_support_file('plugins'),'CompoSpray') that then looks in the wrong place IF the install is NOT into the standard folder...

              Can you explain what "doesn't work"? It's a bit vague description. Do you get any errors installing or using? (Keep Ruby Console open. Window > Ruby Console)
              Unexpected behaviour during operation?

                I can't seem to get it working on sketchup 2013 either.

                Installation seems to be fine, as the icons appear in the toolbar, but clicking 'Components Spray [Top-Down]' and 'Components Spray [Perpendicular]' does nothing.

                Clicking 'Settings' brings up a dialog box with a couple of drop down options, but playing with these seems to do nothing to make the actual tool function properly... unless I'm doing something wrong, which is a strong possibility 😄

                Any help would be appreciated!

                  I am having the same issue with SketchUp 2013.

                  Ruby console reports the following when spray on horizontal is clicked.

                  @unknownuser said:

                  Error: #<Errno::EACCES: Permission denied - C:/Program Files (x86)/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/CompoSpray/csSettings.html>

                  (eval):373

                  Which is odd as it is the only plugin to which this happens. Any ideas?

                  .......Changing permisions for the "CompoSpray" folder in Plugins directory using Windows Explorer "properties" is a good place to start! Just answered my own question. 😳

                    Certainly looks like a 'permissions issue'.
                    Ensure that your Plugins folder... and all of its contents - its files and its subfolders and their files have FULL read/write properties>security permissions set for everyone involved, and they apply to all contents !

                      Hi, I'm having problem with the CompoSprayES.lingvo file and with the components name. I explain, if the words into translation file or into component name have accentuation signs, the plugin doesn't work.
                      Examples:
                      In .lingvo file
                      Triángulo--> plugin doesn't work Triangulo--> plugin works
                      Octógono--> plugin doesn't work Octogono--> plugin works

                      In component name
                      Trébol--> plugin doesn't work Trebol--> plugin works
                      Árbol--> plugin doesn't work Arbol--> plugin works

                      SU8 and Mac OSX 10.9

                        Is the file a UTF8 without BOM format [view in Notepad++] ?
                        It is best to avoid accents in SketchUp's Ruby [until SketchUp catches up with Ruby2...]

                          Yes, the file is in Unicode (UTF-8) format, always I give this format to all translation files. Other plugins don't have problems with the accetuation in the .lingvo file
                          TIG, see that the problem is in the component name too.

                            The plugin works in SU8 & Mac OSX 10.9 (but without accentuation in .lingvo file and component name)
                            The plugin doesn't work in SU 2013 & Mac OSX 10.9
                            When you click on Spray! with a component selected it appears an error window with this message:
                            No component selected.
                            Please select at least a component.

                            And in the Ruby Console this:
                            Error: #<LocalJumpError: unexpected return>
                            (eval):178:in cs_dialog' (eval):178:in call'

                              This would help save a lot of time trawling through a list of components in a complex model.

                                  Didier needs to recode several of his Plugins to be v2014 compatible - usually it's some minor coding tweak or simple save_as UTF8-without-BOM encoding.
                                  But since this tool uses rbs encrypted files we can't see what needs fixing...

                                    So we need to wish Didier find time to do this update or to go on with SU2013.

                                        I've got an issue similar to others.
                                        I am on 2013. Windows 7.
                                        I had an older version of Compo Spray.
                                        The small toolbar with the to spray can icons did nothing.
                                        Under the Draw menu, I had Component Spray and also Component**s** Spray (note the plural)
                                        ComponentsSpray did the same as the toolbar; nothing.
                                        Component Spray gave me the full dialog box with all parameters. I tried many combinations of parameters and combinations of components...to no avail. I got the message something like "1000 tries...Try Again?" Nothing I would do could get the plugin to create any components.

                                        So I figured I'd just delete the old files in my Plugins folder. And reinstall 1.4.2.
                                        Now, I get the toolbar with the "Top Down" and "Vertical" options that does nothing.
                                        And the Components Spray menu item under Draw that does the same thing as the toolbar; nothing. I do not get the dialog box with all the options.

                                        This is such an awesome plugin that I'd really like to figure out what's wrong and start using this!

                                        My CompoSpray folder has full access permissions for me/OWNER.
                                        Any thoughts?

                                          I know others have mentioned this, but here's the error dialogue box that pops up after Installing Compo Spray in SU2014.

                                          It appears every time I open SU2014...

                                          Hope this helps!
