    Bonsoir,

    Effectivement :

    • je suis français (tu as du deviner à cause de mon anglais irréprochable 😉 )
    • Bref, oui tu as tout compris :
    1. installation, sans problème
    2. "Donc la fenêtre de license s'est ouverte normalement puis tu as coché la checkbox 'I agree...'. Seul le bouton 'Exit' est resté disponible" : OUI
    3. J'ai du fermer la fenêtre de licence, car aucun des bouton ne fonctionnait
    4. le crash intervient lors de la ré-ouverture de Sketchup, quelque soit la version (14, 15 ou 16)
    5. J'ai du supprimer manuellement le plugin pour retrouver une utilisation normal de SU
      Voilà, je reste à ta disposition pour tester ce plug car cela fait longtemps que j'attends une animation d'objet intégré.
      Sous SU 8, j'utilisai : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brQcAnd3DmA , qui n'existe plus
      Donc "wait and see" avec impatience 😉
      Vincent

      require 'sketchup'
      
      module YDco_debug;module YDalv
      
      	class Dlg_debug < UI;;WebDialog
      		def initialize()
      		
      			super "SUalive debug", false, "SUalvDebug", 512, 256, 100, 50, false
      			str_html = '<html><head>' +

        J'ai lancé le script via la consol Ruby, car sur mac les extensions c'est .rbz (.rb sur pc)
        Effectivement le script marche sans problème, si non rien de changé coté SUalive.

          Bonjour Vincent,
          Essaie celui-ci maintenant. rb script renommé rbz
          tu devrais voir 'return false' dans la console

          English readers
          Try the following now. rb file renamed rbz
          console should show 'return false'

          script rbz renamed

                      Bonjour Vincent,
                      Nous parlions justement de toi hier soir, ton site ainsi que de tes animations et les vidéos que tu publies. Nous nous demandions si tu accepterais de tester SUalive Full. Donc je suis ravi de t'accueillir dans notre SUaliveDreamTeam. SUaliveDreamTeam est l'endroit idéal pour rêver de modèles SketchUp quittant l'espace restreint de leur écran pour prendre vie en trois dimensions devant nos yeux éblouis. Dans la réalité notre ambition principale est de permettre à chaque utilisateur l'animation de son modèle. Quel boulot!
                      Pour l'instant j'espère simplement que la compatibilité Mac soit possible.
                      Peux-tu lancer le script suivant afin de vérifier la variable d'ENVvironnement de ton système?

                      EN
                      We were talking about you yesterday evening and your website and also the animations you turned into video. We all agreed that you are the perfect candidate for SUalive Full version testing. So I am pleased to welcome you in our SUaliveDreamTeam. In SUaliveDreamTeam We most of time dream about SketchUp model jumping out the computer screen and coming to life in a virtual space right in front of our eyes opened in wonder. In the real world we work on the daily basis so that every single SketchUp user can animate its model which is our main aspiration. What a job!
                      At the moment I merely hope SUalive can work on Mac.
                      May you run the following script so that checking ENVironement variable of the operating system?

                      ENV check script file

                      Windows ENV

                      code

                      		if str_line.length + key.length + 1 > max_line_len
                      			puts str_line
                      			str_line = "  "
                      		end
                      		str_line += key + ";"
                      	end
                      	if str_line.strip.length > 0
                      		puts str_line
                      	end
                      	user_home = ENV['USERPROFILE'].nil? ? ENV['HOME'] ; ENV['USERPROFILE']
                      	puts "with user_home"
                      	puts "  path " + user_home
                      	puts "--------------------------------------------------------debug End"
                      end;end
                      

                      Have a good week-end
                      Passe un bon week-end

                        Bonjour Vincent,
                        Bien peu d'informations comme tu le dis mais pleines d'intérêt. Suis mon raisonnement! Avons-nous besoin d'une version spécifique à chaque OS ou une seule version multi-plateformes suffirait-elle? je suis incapable de répondre à cet instant. Tes retours à mes questions sont une part cruciale dans la réponse.
                        Les prochains jours te sont consacrés! Nos échanges de la semaine passée devraient aboutir à ce que l'onglet 'Project' s'affiche sur ton Mac.
                        Mais avant pourrais-tu lancer le script ci-dessous s'il te plaît?

                        EN
                        It looks like small amount but is of full use. Follow my way! Do we need SUalive.Win AND SUalive.Mac or does any SUalive.CrossPlatform be able to make the whole job? I really don't know right now. Your returns are key part of the answer.
                        The following days are only for you! we expect our previous week exchange leading you to see the 'Project' tab of SUalive.
                        Before that may you run the below script please?

                        script file

                        what it shows

                        require 'sketchup'
                        
                        module YDco_debug;module YDalv
                        	
                        	class Dlg_debug < UI;;WebDialog
                        		def initialize()
                        		
                        			super "SUalive debug", false, "SUalvDebug", 512, 256, 100, 50, false
                        			str_html = '<html><head>' +

                                    'document.write(strOut)' +
                                '</script>' +
                        				'</body></html>'
                        			set_html(str_html)
                        			
                        			show_modal
                        			
                        		end		
                        	end
                        	
                        	puts "Start debug ------------------------------------------------" + RUBY_VERSION.to_s
                        		dlg = Dlg_debug.new()		
                        	puts "--------------------------------------------------------debug End"
                        end;end
                        

                        Have a good week
                        Bonne semaine

                          Voilà la réponse à ton script ...

                          with navigator.platform
                          8 chars => MacIntel
                          isMac? true
                          isWin? false
                          end with

                          Cela fait-il avancer le Schmilblick ?

                          😉

                            Bonjour Vincent,

                            Merci. Rassure toi, les choses avancent. Le dernier script permet à une boîte de dialogue de connaître l'OS sous-jacent sans aucun paramètre envoyé à partir de Ruby. Ce n'est probablement pas totalement sûr mais très certainement utile.
                            Maintenant que tu dois attendre quelques jours avant de connaître le résultat de ton travail je voudrais développer un peu plus avant le processus 'pas à pas'. Nous nous connaissons depuis peu et je comprends très bien que cette manière d'aborder un problème ne t'est pas habituelle, peut-être même un peu ennuyeuse. Mais c'est le moyen le plus rapide de faire fonctionner SUalive sur ton Mac. Tout autre façon d'agir peut conduire à l'empilement et/ou combinaison de bugs. Supposant que tout ce passe bien jusqu'à l'affichage de l'onglet 'Project' j'ai l'intention de te demander de na pas aller plus loin. Je sais que ce qu'une telle requête provoque comme frustration mais fais moi confiance. Le confort de l'utilisateur final est au prix d'un code solide et robuste. Nous passons maintenant plus de la moitié de notre temps de développement à vérifier le fonctionnement de SUalive puis vérifier à nouveau et encore une fois. Après ça quand tout est terminé, tu sais quoi? nous recommençons le processus complet de vérification. Au moindre doute nous reprenons tout à zéro. Tu n'es pas seul, nous aussi avons une idée précise du niveau de frustration provoqué par cette nécessité.
                            Si tu as des questions, c'est le bon moment!

                            EN
                            Thanks. Of course things are moving forward. The last script allows a WebDialog for knowing about the operating system without any parameter sent from Ruby. Probably not fully secure but useful for sure.
                            Now you have to wait some days before having the result of your work I would like talking a bit about this step-by-step process. We meet not for long and I understand the checking process one step after another may be unusual for you perhaps even a bit annoying but it's the shortest way to quickly make SUalive at work on your Mac. More intuitive way could lead to bugs stacking and/or merging. Assuming things go right up to the 'Project' tab shown I'm going to ask you for not going further. I know how frustrating you will feel with that but trust me. Aiming the end user ease there are no other way to achieve a robust and strong code. We now spend more than half of our full developing time to check then check and check another time SUalive. And after that when finished and before releasing you know what? we restart to check once. If we get in doubt we start another time the full check process. You are not alone we also know about frustration!
                            If you want to ask for anything. It's the right time!

                            Best Regards

                              Bonjour Vincent,
                              La version corrigée est disponible en téléchargement sur le site web . Si le bug a disparu j'aurais aimé que tu me montres une copie d'écran de l'onglet 'Project' (png format si possible) puis que tu cliques sur l'icône menu en haut à gauche et charge la boîte de dialogue 'Preferences' (copies d'écran de chaque onglet si tu le peux). Enfin lance la fenêtre d'aide à partir du même menu (ici aussi une copie d'écran serait bien venue).
                              Ces trois fenêtres recèlent un foule de détails concernant le code multi-plateformes.

                              EN
                              Patched version available on the website . If bug fixed I would have liked you to show me a screen copy of the 'Project' tab - png picture if you can - then click the top-left icon menu and load 'Preferences' - screen copy of each tab appreciated - and finally launch 'Help' from the same menu - here also screen copy would be great!
                              These three windows hold much as regard cross-platform code.

                              have a good day

                                Bon, retour rapide :
                                Sur SU 15 : instal ok, puis plus rien, l' extension apparait bien dans le menu correspondant, mais au lancement, affiche toujours la fenêtre de démarrage avec les 2 boutons à valider, puis une fois validée la fenêtre disparait sans
                                autre menu, icône ou autre renseignement, à l'écran.
                                Sur SU 16 : là c'est vite fait : plantage de SU dès le lancement (après installation, rien dans le menu correspondant)

                                Tu devrais mettre les n° de version dans le titre de l'extension, histoire de savoir si c'est vraiment la bonne que je télécharge .

                                Vincent

                                  Bonjour Vincent,
                                  Ce téléchargement n'était qu'un premier essais. Je vais t'envoyer un lien spécifique pour le suivant qui tente de répondre à la question : Où le script stoppe-t-il? Il n'est pas sensé fonctionner mais uniquement écrire des blocs d'identificateurs indentés dans la console Ruby, comme ci-dessous.
                                  Ne perd pas ton temps à tester les deux, Sketchup15 et 16 pour l'instant. Sketchup16 est très suffisant.

                                  EN
                                  The file you downloaded was merely a first trial. I am going to send you a specific link for the next one which aims to answer : Where does the script stop? It is not meant to show but only write indented blocks of identifiers in Ruby console like the following.
                                  Don't spent your time with both Sketchup15 and 16 at the moment. SketchUp16 is far enough!

                                  with Run vX.XX.xxxx
                                    id
                                    ...
                                  end with Run
                                  with Load
                                    id
                                    ...
                                    with Show
                                      id
                                      ...
                                    end with Show
                                    id
                                    ...
                                  end with Load
                                      id
                                      ...
                                  
                                  

                                  have a good day

                                    Hello,
                                    I'm meeting hard-time with Mac OSX!

                                    As you may read Postby WhyDi » Fri Aug 19, 2016 1:24 pm on previous page Vincent ran the script shown and got the right results which means dialogue-box returns True if Osx-user clicks 'continue' and False when 'exit' button clicked. His reply right underneath has lost the picture but he said 'So far so good'.

                                    Based on this result I updated SUalive then sent a copy to Vincent. Didn't work!

                                    I spent nearly a full day trying to catch why and ended up with the script below so that getting a better check. Please note this is the same script than previous page out of Dlg_debug.new() lays inside a Method embedded in two IF blocks.

                                    require 'sketchup'

                                    The script no longer works! always yields False due to WebDialog returns before lics.load_dialog() executed - pictures of return available if you wish. Consistent! may you reply related to show_modal cross-platform difference. Yes it is!

                                    Two points
                                    I'm fully aware of ThomThom wrote in Sketchup WebDialogs - The Lost Manual about show_modal . So
                                    1 - Just for my education on this.
                                    Please tell me why the first script is right and not the second?
                                    2 - Need for SUalive at work on OSX
                                    Is there any way to make WebDialog fully modal on Mac OSX? any workaround? way of coding to achieve?

                                    Have a good week
                                    WhyDi

                                    the devil is in the detail

                                      I reformatted your code so I could follow it, and pre-defined @is_ok...

                                      it appears to work as far as I can follow what you might want...

                                        Hi John (perhaps you prefer Driven?). Nice to meet you here!

                                        Good idea reformatting the code to get a better understanding. I like your way! Your code looks better than mine.
                                        Before explanations may I ask you for running the script on the previous page . I would have liked you to run one time clicking 'continue' button the another clicking 'exit' button then show me the results in your console.
                                        This only to make sure that first script works on more than one single Mac computer.

                                        Good evening

                                        the devil is in the detail

                                          the webDialog works in both scripts, but debug code doesn't write to console when you expect...

                                          it runs on load and returns false because you haven't defined @is_ok

                                          Start debug ------------------------------------------------2.0.0
                                          Dlg_debug returns false
                                          --------------------------------------------------------debug End
                                          

                                          you need to add a timer if you want to wait for the dlg's action callback...
