      Hi,
      Try with the attached file: delete the old one and replace with this one (no need to rename it).
      Tell me if it works,


      HouseBuilder_extension_Mac.rb

              Hi,

              @driven: $housebuilder_path = Sketchup.find_support_file("Plugins") + "/HouseBuilder/" is working ?? (still no Macs here)

              In this case, deaneau you just have to download the file below:


              HouseBuilder_extension_Mac.rb

                seems to be working, but I've never used, I just loaded to see if the back slashes where the problem or not, had that problem before...

                the only odd thing is where the generated report file (i.e. ** _wall.txt) ends up it's in the top level HD folder and I had to use Spotlight to find it, but it's all there

                    Look in the subfolder, in the file 'housebuilder_sections.txt' there are the lists of section-types and sizes etc...
                    Make a copy of that file, edit the file to show the sections you want in the single-line as shown for each of the four types; use the same 'syntax' as the original sizes in 'mm' [aaxbb|aaaxbbb|... etc], test it and if it works with your new custom sizes you've cooking-with-gas; if NOT then you've always got the original version to revert to...Capture.PNG

                        I'm using the TIG version of metric 1.2 plugin. I edited the housebuilder_sections.txt file as described but the new values I entered seem to be ignored by the script. They don't show up on the selection menu.

                        Thanks,
                        Karl
