Installation of .rb plugins in 2014 and 2015
-
Try the following:
Edit the plugin's .rb file using Notepad.
At the end of the code it says:
.unpack("m").to_s
change the end part to read
.unpack("m")[0]
Save and restart SketchUp... -
I installed the plugin after editing it and it showed up for me and it seems to work just fine. Did you edit the text exactly as shown and restart SketchUp after saving the file? What program did you edit in?
-
No luck, It's not that critical either. Thanks for the help.

Check your PMs.

Notepad

Hmmm.....

It's about defcon two at the moment and if I don't cook her dinner soon who knows where it will end up..

I knew you'd be along.
-
I also confirm that making that simple change to the end of the code should make it load [under the View menu !] and it works fine...
-
Thank you to all. Dave R helped get it straight.

there is no 'auto-instal' for any .rb files, only .rbz...
notice the 'z', it's stands for 'zipped', so if you 'zip' any .rb then rename it's extension from .zip to .rbz, it will appear in the add extension list...john
