Obviously you can't 'sell' someone else's creation, but the use of most of the forum's 'free' tools in your 'business' is acceptable, unless there is something specifically in a tool's 'notices' saying you can't... In this case it's 'All Rights Reserved... Free License...' etc but with no other limitations that I can see...
Having said that it would be nice to offer an author a modest PayPal donation - after all if you are making money from a tool then sharing some of it would only seem fair... "What goes around comes around..."
Matt666 doesn't have a donation button on the 'SketchUcation Plugin Store', but this doesn't prevent you sending him a Private Message and asking the question... If he declines you are no worse off, if he accepts you might feel better in your heart...

Hello there,
I just installed SU 2014,
After downloading Matts Toggle_Units.rb using the sketchucation download-Manager I get the following Error message:

Fehler beim Laden der Datei Matt_Toggle_Units.rb
Error: #<SyntaxError: C:/Users/Architekt/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2014/SketchUp/Plugins/Matt_Toggle_Units.rb:62: syntax error, unexpected ',', expecting ')'
Sketchup.register_extension (ext,true)
^>
Any Idea how to fix this ?
thank`s for your comments,
Uli

You should try to contact Matt by email or something, so that he can fix it.

In the meantime, open the file
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2014\SketchUp\Plugins\Matt_Toggle_Units.rb
in notepad.

Change the last line from
Sketchup.register_extension (ext,true)
to
Sketchup.register_extension ext, true

Then it should work fine.

EDIT : It seems he visited the forum on Feb 27, so he should be around somewhere

Hi Pete! Thank you for your kind words..

i don't use SU and Ruby anymore, my new job as musician doesn't need for these kind of software!
But I love programming so I will try to do something for you..

I just have to reinstall SU!

There was a single method (arguments) error in the extension 'loader' .rb.
I've corrected it to method(arguments) so it is now v2014 compliant.
I updated it for the PluginStore entry [v3.000]...

Hello all,

I still have some troubles with this very usefull extension.
It also seems to be related to a UTF8 issue as you can see the error message below.
I have Win7 64bit pro. Any idea ?

The language string files haven't been encoded as UFT8 and have a silly extensions [.en, .fr]...

it would be simpler to use .txt so people can edit their own copies.

Dam' - missed it - I'll look & update asap...

TIG

Only the FR file was wrongly encoded as ANSI !
The EN one worked fine...
The plugin's HTML file shows NO encoding at all - which is just weird !
It'll be fixed and an update published shortly...
[mod=:3i457397]Update v3.001 with correctly encoded FR file etc now in the PluginStore.

Works fine !
Thank you TIG, you're great.
Merci beaucoup.
