      @panixia,

      Could you check the value of ENV["LOCALAPPDATA"] in the Ruby console.

      In principle the configuration file is stored in a subfolder LIBFREDO6_DATA_Dir of this directory.

      If ENV["LOCALAPPDATA"] is not defined, then it deafult to the temp directory, which, with your RAM disk is erased when you exit. So everything is lost.

          first of all thanks for your answer.
          I typed ENV["LOCALAPPDATA"] this returns me C:\Users\Panixia\AppData\Local
          I tryed to copy the folder LIBFREDO6_DATA_Dir into it, but this doesn't work and sketchup loads with thrupaint and curvizard buttons missing.. maybe i'm doing something wrong. 😢

          the most effective workaround i found so far is to place on desktop a link to ramdisk and a copy of LIBFREDO6_DATA_Dir (whith proper default parameters stored) to drag and drop into before i first run sketchup.. a bit dirty but all in all it works fine.. 😄

            The subfolder is created if it does not exist in ../local. Is this the case, or do you have permissions set that prevents it?

              Hi I´v been trying to get the plugin on sketch up whole week and I still don´t get it it has driven me crazy! I downloaded the plugin and extracted it to plugin folder also as i installed it from the warehouse. Still I don't get it in my toolbar. What have I missed?

                From the first post of the thread.

                @unknownuser said:

                LibFredo6 is a shared library used by some of my plugins. It is NOT a standalone plugin. Plugins currently using LibFredo6 are:

                FredoScale
                Tools on Surface
                RoundCorner
                Curviloft
                HoverSelect
                GhostComp
                SUClock
                FredoTools
                Curvizard
                TopoShaper
                JointPushPull Interactive
                

                Which means there is nothing to appear in any toolbars, it is a helper file that works with other plugins.
                You need to install the other plugins for it to have any purpose.

                  I am getting this error loading issue with Fredo6 on 2014 installing the plugin from Sketchucation. Anything that can be done?

                    Paul,

                    It just menas that on your installation, one or several of my plugins have not been upgraded to latest version compatible with SU 14.
                    Please check

                    Fredo

                      Have reinstalled all the Fredo plugins from Sketchucation and from Extension warehouse, same result. Have disabled all other plugins, same result. Installed Libfredo on its own. no problem, installed any of the other plugins in any order same results. They all give similar error messages. Ran Sketchup as administrator, same result (using windows 7 64bit). Disabled all the virus protection, same result. Don't know where else to go.

                        Paul,

                        You have a wrong file somewhere among my plugins (i.e. not encoded for UTF8), and it is most likely a file with extension .plugin.

                        It may be a files remaining from an old installation.

                        I suggest you clean up the folders and subfolders of my plugins, and then reinstall from with the PluginStore tool.

                        Fredo

                          Try the following...
                          In SketchUp 2014 > Ruby Console:

                          $:

                          result?

                          Sketchup.find_support_file('Plugins')

                          result?

                          It should be something like:
                          C:/Users/PaulB/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2014/SketchUp/Plugins

                          Sketchup.find_support_file('Plugins').encoding

                          result?

                          With admin powers, open the Plugins folder returned by this.
                          Back up one step and select its icon...
                          Right-click > Context-menu > Properties > Security > Edit...
                          Should be preset to the default FULL - if not change it...

                          Find the Sketchup.exe file in the main C:/Programs Files/SketchUp/SketchUp 2014/ folder...
                          Right-click > Context-menu > Properties > Compatibility > Privilege Level pane > tick the 'Run this program as an administrator' option

                          Find the Lib Fredo .rb and subfolder and physically remove it from Plugins.
                          This ensures a fresh install with no incompatible files left around...
                          Install the latest version of it either from the RBZ using Preferences > Extensions > Install... button, or using the SketchUcation PluginStore dialog within SketchUp...
                          Restart SketchUp...
                          Report results...
                          NEVER install older versions from say v2013 Plugins or an older RBZ - get the latest versions, which are specifically updated to be v2014 compatible.
                          Try the equivalent manual removal for any Fredo plugins, and reinstall then one at a time from their latest RBZs until you get an issue - then report back... 😕

                            My installations are all the latest versions. I have deleted ALL my plugins all fredo directories and files and reinstalled just LibFredo and Fredo Scale from the extension warehouse, same result. Have enabled Sketchup to run as administrator, the default in the folder is set to full. I'll do a clean install of Sketchup 2014.

                              Those results are expected.
                              No issues.
                              Are you sure you have deleted all of the Plugins from the 2104 Plugins folder 😕
                              Delete ALL of the Fredo folders/files [again!].
                              Restart SketchUp 2014.
                              You should now only get the basic su_ files loading...

                              Download the SketchUcation Plugin Store toolset...
                              http://sketchucation.com/resources/plugin-store-download
                              Install it using the Preferences > Extensions > Install... button...
                              Restart SketchUp to make sure it completes the installation...

                              Use the SketchUcation PluginStore [within SketchUp] to AutoInstall the 'Lib Fredo'...
                              Tip: use the disalog's filters/search tools to find its AutoInstall entry.
                              Next do the same to AutoInstall one of Fredo's plugins [like Fredo Scale].
                              Restart SketchUp to make sure it completes the installation...

                              Now what happens ?

                                  Hello Fredo,
                                  Love your Plugins, thank you!
                                  I keep getting this message..."libfredo6 will be updated at next startup of sketchup.

                                  I have tried reloading, deleting obsolete files etc etc.
                                  Can you help me figure out what is going on?
                                  Thanks
                                  Best BP

                                    Hi Bob, you've got a lot of errors there and not all are related to Fredo's work. Is it possible you copied plugins from an older SketchUp version? I've got many of those same plugins installed on my PC and I don't get those errors.

                                    Make sure you have the most current versions installed.

                                        Hi Fredo,

                                        I love all your plugins but I'm having some problems with sketchup 2014, I tried installing LibFredo6 5.8c and keep getting this error

                                        Error Loading File Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb
                                        Error: #<LoadError: cannot load such file -- LibTraductor.rb>
                                        C:/Users/Architect34/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2014/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb:28:in require' C:/Users/Architect34/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2014/SketchUp/Plugins/Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb:28:in <top (required)>'

                                        I also tried deleting everything and clean install from .rbz, also copy and paste but keep getting same error. I also tried installing from sketchucation autoinstall and same problem.

                                        I also copied to Sketchup 2014> Tools folder, and Plugins folder but same problem.

                                        I hope you can help me.

                                        Thanks

                                          Hopefully you have installed fresh newest versions and not copied old versions across from an earlier SketchUp's Plugins folder !
                                          How have you installed the latest RBZ's ?
                                          Preferences > Extensions > Install... button ? or perhaps AutoInstall with the PluginStore dialog ?
                                          Either way you should end up with a Lib subfolder with many files in it, including something like the one that is reported missing 'Lib6Traductor.rb' [see screenshot] - although your error says 'LibTraductor.rb' with NO '6'! See next...
                                          The lines in Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb to which it refers say:
                                          require 'LibTraductor.rb' if Sketchup.find_support_file('LibTraductor.rb', "Plugins") #Compatibility require 'TOS_Dir_13/LibTraductor_20.rb' if Sketchup.find_support_file('TOS_Dir_13/LibTraductor_20.rb', "Plugins") #Compatibility
                                          So the 'require' should only be called if the 'LibTraductor.rb' file is in the main Plugins folder [or alternatively the old TOS directory].
                                          It should not run with a clean install because the newest versions of Fredo's tools use the alternative translator file in the Lib folder.

                                          There should be no such files to cause the 'if' test to be positive ?
                                          Using this in the Ruby Console should return nil:
                                          Sketchup.find_support_file('LibTraductor.rb', "Plugins")
                                          If not, then find that rogue file and delete it and retry/restart...

                                          I have v2014 and it loads the Lib and all Fredo's tools just fine.
                                          There are neither of these older 'LibTraductor' rb files in the Plugins or an obsolete TOS subfolder.
                                          The 'Lib6Traductor.rb' in the Lib folder does what's needed...
