[Plugin Library] LibFredo6 - v14.7a - 09 Nov 24
-
Hey Fredo,
Thanks for the great work you do with these plugins.
But why do you make these pages so complicated to read? Everything looks like a link that you can click or something, and all kind of bullet lists don't help. I'm trying to look for the download link, which should be recognizable in the page, and I stumble all the time with words and titles and headers which are misleading. Couldn't you simplify it so it's easier to find things? It's missing a sort of hierarchy in the page in my opinion.
Cheers -

Use the PluginStore ! -

Precisely, as TIG highlighted, you should use Sketchucation PluginStore, which is an addon script running within Sketchup. This is where you'll see the single "Install' button.
The web page in the forum is primarily informative about the Plugin. It is organized in sections hoping users would read some of them prior to use the plugin and thus avoid common problems.

I have try to install with the skechucation toolbar.. Autoinstall don't do anything. I have to install all by .RBZ (for me is the only way to install any plugins)Any suggestions?

Strange. SCF Plugin Store tools works on SU2013.
Did you install some of my plugins along with LibFredo6?Fredo

I used SU2014 extension warehouse. It allocates the folder under the correct path.. but SU doesn't see it. Why??
the folder is there, under appdata......plugins, with the default extensions, under the name of Fredo6_!LibFredo6 and Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb
What should be wrong? -
What is your Windows User-name?
Please post the results of this code in the Ruby Console:
$:
It should return the paths to various folders...If your user-name has accents in it, then it is a known issue that can block some Ruby '
File
' operations.
This has greatly improved in v2014 Ruby2, but with accented characters there can still be some failures when using__FILE__
, which itself sets the path to a loading .rb file and which is used to set relative-paths, but can be incorrectly encoded, if accented.
There is a clunky workaround used by some scripts [like the SketchUcation toolset] which sidesteps the issue by forcing the correct encoding in v2014 - but in earlier versions the problem can't be circumvented... -
yep.. that is the case.. my user name has accent : (
I though that might be the issue.. I'll try a work around. -

I must ask! what kind of “work around” can solve this problem…without having to change the user name. Thanks! -
Sorry
Unfortunately there is no effective solution - except getting SketchUp v2014...
What is stopping you using that - in parallel with earlier versions if you must...
But why must you have an accent in your Windows user-name ?
It is well know to cause issues with applications - like SketchUp < v2014 where the Ruby version cannot cope with the 'File' issues...
Unfortunately simply renaming your Windows user-account still leaves residual linked in 'accented-name' folders etc...
There is good guidance on the www on how to make another 'clean' user-name account and then copy over all of your current folders and files to that.
Then once it is all working you can remove the accented-name account ???

Thank you!
Well, the solution seems clear, never had a similar problem before
…till now didn’t even knew this could be an issue! -

Hi Fredo!
Visuhole Looks like an amazing plugin, though I can't find where to download the latest Libfredo from. The download button doesn't appear for me on: http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=LibFredo6
Nor on the sketchucaiton plugin store from within Sketchup.
Can't wait to try it out! -

Chris,
Thanks for signaling. For whatever reasons, the attachment in the Plugin Store had disappeared. I put it back
