      I'll myself try to include a debug console inside Layers Panel dialog, so that you can see what's breaking.

      What is the language of your sketchup install?

      What is the proper way to debug? I'm actually really curious, looking forward to nailing down the issue, I'm learning Ruby 2 to write my own plugins, so the more I can learn about the process. So I should keep the console open while testing this? Are there any options or anything I need to tick first prior to testing it?

      I'm running just the standard US English version. It'd be nice to have it be some unicode character that's causing the issue, at least that'd be an easier starting point than this mystery.

        Just got this when importing a model from the 3D Warehouse from the Component Browser:

        Error; #<NoMethodError; undefined method `execute_script' for nil;NilClass>
        C;/Users/Jim/Dropbox/Plugins/jbb_layers_panel/rb/observers.rb;60;in `onChangeEntity'
        C;/Users/Jim/Dropbox/Plugins/jbb_layers_panel/rb/observers.rb;109;in `commit_operation'
        C;/Users/Jim/Dropbox/Plugins/jbb_layers_panel/rb/observers.rb;109;in `block in onLayerAdded'

          I'm kind of a ruby newbie myself, so I'm not sure what the "proper" way is. One sure thing, though, is that I always have the ruby console opened when debugging my plugin. But it just gives you the ruby-related errors.
          In this case, it seems to be a javascript-related error. Usually I debug this by neutralizing whole bunches of code and see what's breaking. But as I can't come to your house and debug on your machine ( πŸ˜„ ), I need to implement a console inside the webdialog that would output js errors. I know thomthom and maybe others use firebug lite, I'll try to make it work.

          Yeah... But it doesn't seem to be the case, as your file works fine on my PC, and I'm also running SU english.

            sometimes when i try and undo an operation it does not work and looking at EDIT -> UNDO - it will say UNDO Properties as if I changed a property instead of the modeling operation I am trying to undo... is this coming from Layers Panel?

            This happens to me quite often. It is undoubtedly coincidence, but when I disable Layers Panel I don't have UNDO problems. πŸ˜• Pity because LP is such an outstanding tool.

              Ok guys, I found the issue. I'll release a fixed version ASAP.

                Very cool! I was actually just finding the time to install the Firebug version you sent, when I read this. Let me know if you still want me to test anything out, as I'd be happy to!

                    Great one Jiminy do you think this also has something to do with what happened to my groups?

                      I don't think so, but I don't know where it could come from.
                      So, maybe...

                        Does it happen in every file? Even a brand new one?

                        Yup, even with brand new files. I'm also having problems creating layer groups and new layers...they either simply won't create or when they are created they can't be renamed, and nothing can be added to them, visibility controls won't work etc.

                        Sometimes I lose all of the layer group structures I've created previously as well. This happens when I open more than one session of sketchup side by side...

                        Error message when I try to create new layer groups attached.

                        Cheers

                          Side by side you say?... I'll double check on that as I'm permanently doing it too!

                          With the new files I can create groups again though.

                            This is getting better and better! many thanks!!
                            small hick-up here. Is that the Layer Status does not work occasionally. I can still click it, but it won't update the layers I want to see.

                              Awesome! That seems to be it! I think everything is working now, so I'll start testing it out! Thanks again, this is a fantastic extension.

                                I guess when having more than one models opened? If so, this will be fixed in the next release.

                                  I started getting these error messages. is there a way to fix it? I am also not being able to add groups.

                                      yep, it worked. no more error messages and I am able to create groups again.

                                      however, I still have an old complaint: LP does not remember where I place its panel: at start it always opens on the same spot on the screen. if the native windows can remember where they were placed last why can't yours?

                                      once more, thanks for a wonderful plugin.

                                          no problem. it is a minor inconvenience compared to what your plugin offers.

                                          I will pretend I did not read your suggestion to switch to windows... πŸ˜‰
