What Massimo said. Or you could download the RBZ file and install it automatically via Install Extension or, even better, install the Sketchucation Plugin Store and install it automatically that way.

Hello. I have an error reboot after installing Extrude Tools v2.5 .:

Your Windows user-name is Iván - with an accent !
Prior to v2014 user-names containing accented characters were well known to cause issues with Ruby scripts - e.g. when using 'File' methods [you still show v8 in your user-profile, but the reported error is in v2014].

This issue is improved in v2014... BUT such accents etc can still cause problems in FILE related code used by many scripts...
I'll try coming up with a fix and reissue this toolset shortly - look for a new version later today...
Let me know if it works...

However, having an accented user-name WILL still cause issues with SketchUp pre-v2014... AND in several other toolsets' code in even v2014 too.

Here's v2.6 http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=ExtrudeTools
It is re-coded in an attempt to allow users who have accents in their Windows user-name to still successfully load and use the toolset in v2014...

iivvaann · 12 Sept 2014, 06:30

Woo uuu !!! Excellent, it worked instantly. Thank you very much TIG, my laptop is new and the seller put the accent on the user name. I was already forming to not have this plugin. Thank you very much for taking the time to help me. Thank you again. Greetings.

TIG · 12 Sept 2014, 10:54

Glad to be of help...
If you get similar issues with other scripts, then please let the author know.
This kind of report is rare, but there are possible workarounds - at least for v2014...

Extrude Edges by Faces by Rails makes my SU2015 64bit always crash immediately after finishing - it works fine on the same model in SU2013. No error message, just crash and bug splat window the second I click yes or no to erasing the original curves.

All other tools work.

It's amazing though, how much faster this and many other operations are executed in the new 64bit version.

Looks like we ought to continue this issue in this 'Extrusion Tools' thread ?
I'll investigate...

PS: I see the issue too, trying to see its cause

Pherim · 5 Nov 2014, 23:26

Your recommendation in the other thread made me try out every tool in this set, and that's how I discovered this issue.
Sorry for keeping you busy like this.

TIG · 6 Nov 2014, 17:21

Here's v2.7, now in the PluginStore
http://sketchucation.com/plugin/1103-extrudetools
The update covers ExtrudeEdgesByRailsByFace - it has been adjusted to work properly in v2015, which unexpectedly showed a glitch when calling another tool from within its mouse-click method...
As a 'side-effect' it also has some improved graphics, prompting etc...

Pherim · 6 Nov 2014, 17:29

I confirm that it works now. Thanks!

I have just installed this plugin through plugin store tool bar's autoinstall.
I watched the video on youtube and followed step by step. but the tools didn't work for me.
Is there any way there could be a more detailed video tutorial preferably with audio?
Also am I missing something in the operations and or installation of this tool?
Thanks for your response.

You said you downloaded the RBZ.
You have NOT said you have installed it !

So if you haven't...
Window > Preferences > Extensions > Install... button...
Choose the Plugin's RBZ and answer in the affirmative to any questions...
NOTE: if you installed it with the SketchUcation PluginStore Toolset's dialog within SketchUp itself it should Auto-Install.

Assuming it is installed...
Look in the v2015 "Extensions" menu [called "Plugins" in ALL pre-v2015 SketchUps] for "Extrusion Tools..." submenu items...
Are they there ?
Also check that the "Extrusion Tools" Toolbar is activated...

If none of this works come back.

Sketchup 2015 Pro

Whenever I extrude an edge, by any means, and save, it undoes the extrusion and will continue to undo every time I save. It acts just like Ctrl-Z whenever I hit Ctrl-S, and it crashes occasionally.
Thank you. It was working fine.

Ok, I figured it out. Extrude Tools have a conflict with SUSolid plugin. I really need both. I am emailing the dev of SUSolid now. Is there anything I can send you to check on your end? Thank you.
