Help. Lost my Mirror function when upgrading to 2016 Make

Gene Davis · 1 Sept 2016, 01:46

I had an extension, a plug-in, called Mirror, don't know where I got it, but I used it all the time in my earlier versions, from way back.

Cannot find anything like it in the extension warehouse.

Many plugins/extensions are NOT available in The Extension-Warehouse.
However, they are available from the SketchUcation PluginStore...
http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore
[There a simple link in menu above...]

For example, my Mirror is here:
http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=Mirror

If you want something and unusually it's not in the PluginStore, then look in EW, or for a few try Smustard.com .
Another few are only available from their author's own web-site - however, at SketchUcation you should find posts containing useful links to most of these...

There is also the Crai Ruby Depot! (for free Plugins)
http://www.crai.archi.fr/rld/index.php English and French!

Advantage : plugings are sorted by sections!

Word of warning on the Crai Depot...
It's a valuable repository of plugins, but many are out of date and newer/compatible versions are now available elsewhere...
Especially if you have >=v2015...
So check for the newest versions of the desired plugin, on any of the sites I have just listed.
If there isn't one, then try using the Depot's version...
However, if you get problems when SketchUp restarts, then you might need to remove the file[s] you've just installed... and seek compatible versions elsewhere...
