      Because someone's name is Gordy they are the same Gordon we are looking for? Gordon is the name of the user on their computer... Don't know if it would be the user on the SCF board. Doesn't ring any bells for me. But, who knows... Could be him.

      I did a search on the 17-18 pages on this thread and didn't find any mention of a Gordon.

        Rich, I sent all of those guide/experiments to you in a PM. You might want to hit them will spell check. and just use find/replace to change the directory for all the images.

                    Ok, since we figured out who Gordon is and I saw his posts contributing to the community, I'm going to assume everything in my folder is up for grabs.

                    Now don't go installing this unless you know what you're doing. Let Tig, Rich, Oxer and Myself sort them out, clean them up and see how they should fit in. We'll offer them up in a combined pack afterwards.

                    Here it is.

                    http://www.sketchup-house-plans.com/Ivy-Leaves-Kris.zip

                    Here's what it contains.

                      Thanks Kris πŸ˜„

                      Remember to use a SKP as a custom leaf you must name it 'ivyleaf_XXXXX.skp' and put it in the ..Plugins//LiveIvy/Textures subfolder.
                      The 'XXXXX' can be any text you want [e.g. 'Kris'] - I recommend using something logical - although you will see a thumbnail to click on !

                      I also recommend that you consider editing the SKPs to 'hide' some outer edges etc, which will improve the appearance of the 'leaves' etc ...

                        Roger that... I did the 1-10 on the old one but Rich came behind and redid them. So I wanted to touch base with all of you first.

                        Do you think we should keep the norms and bumps etc? I take it that's for render monkeys.

                                      Normally, most people will see a very small pink line, not real geometry, but a placeholder for a line. Do you not see that either?

                                        Can you try a clean reinstall of the tool, to be sure there are no legacy files.
                                        Open the Plugins folder and delete the LiveIvy.rb file and the entire LiveIvy subfolder.
                                        Now reinstall it from the downloaded RBZ or the SketchUcation PluginStore AutoInstall red-button.
                                        Restart SketchUp and try the tool again.
                                        What happens ?
                                        What is your OS ? PC or MAC ?
                                        Are you holding the modifier keys down while clicking ?
                                        Are you clicking on a wall face ??

                                          I reinstalled several times of course cleanly the plugin.
                                          At the first clic (without modifiers keys) a very small pink line appears but nothing happens to the others click
                                          however before suspecting a bad use....there was a display of a message of mistake of the program...no ?
                                          PC OS : Windows 7 32 bits SP3 - and Sketchup 8 Pro.

                                            Not all ot them will have dialog headings...
                                            Please reset to those which do apply... and try again.
                                            Remember that it might want the inpy value as 0.2 NOT 0,2 !!!
