      Thank you for your fast answering. By the way,what do I have to do to select image clicking the right button on my mouse.
      Continuing with the attempt to install the plugin (the only one after easy install) I got this message in the skp. screen
      https://cf.dropboxstatic.com/static/images/icons/icon_spacer-vflN3BYt2.gif

      this is the bmp image:

        That first image doesn't appear to load. (You can upload directly to the forum btw.)

            Hmm... That message about not being supported - it would indicate you have an OSX version older than 10.7. Though that seem rather old - as it incorrectly matching your system? What is your OSX version?

              HI Thom, this is what I have:

              So what do I have to do in order to get your plugin works under this circumstances?

                You have an old [now unsupported] OSX 10.6
                As TT said, you need to have at least 10.7...

                Can't you update your OS ?
                There is the 'Software Update...' button on the 'About This Mac...' dialog...

                If for some reason you can't upgrade your OS, then several Extensions [including this one] will not work...
                That is the limitation, unless you change things...

                Also SketchUp no longer supports v8 [and v2013 will cease shortly] - also several Extensions will no longer work in older SketchUp versions [this is often irrespective of the computer's OS, since they might rely on new API features, which are unavailable in those older SketchUp versions] - so why no 'bite-the-bullet' and upgrade both your OS and SketchUp version ?

                  I'm afraid the 10.7 requirement is because I no longer have machines to build for older systems. For every release of OSX it gets harder to support these as well as older versions. I might have to drop 10.7 soon as well given the frequency of OSX releases. πŸ˜•

                    Only thing I can think of to run 10.6 would be to try one of the older versions of TT_Lib: https://bitbucket.org/thomthom/tt-library-2/downloads

                    Though you will then have less features and bug-fixes.

                    I'm also not sure which version might be compatible.

                      It is a pity.
                      Thank you Thomas, and you too Tig.
                      I will look forward to upgrade every thing.
                      Thank you again and continue with the great job for us the sketchupers.

                        Hi All, I was just playing something around this evening

                        Some people succeed in lasering or engraving contours into a thick glass somehow - I have no idea how
                        thay do it πŸ˜„ so this little exercise, to put the author Thomas Mann in thick glass, should just imitate this nice gimmick …

                        such a great plugin - thanks for it!

                            Hello!
                            I just wanted to say THANK YOU for this great plugin! It saved me a lot of time. I could just import a heightmap instead of having to trace over a topographical map by hand. You saved me about a few weeks of work!
                            If I ever upload my finished "project" to the 3D-Warehouse I will put a link to this plugin in the description.

                            Thank you very much!!!

                                How about sharing the BMP file so we can see it and maybe help you out?

                                  Thanks Dave; I would, but .bmp extensions are not allowed. (just tried to upload the bmp as an attachment) Besides, I think the problem may be something tweaked with the plugin in regard to it's interaction with SU 2017. Since I updated a few days ago, the plugin keeps trying to make a second copy of the mesh at the time when it completes the first, and throws an error.

                                  By the way, been meaning to say this for years, I like your signature.

                                    How about uploading the BMP to DropBox and sharing the link.

                                    What did you update a few days ago?

                                    Thanks on the signature.

                                      I no longer do business with Dropbox. Long story.

                                      I did solve the problem. Somehow an earlier version of the plugin got left behind when I updated it the other day. Removed it, no more problem.

                                      Thanks anyway. πŸ˜„

                                        Think I could get a working script of this for sketchup8? I cant seem to want to update because I have a LOT of plugins that work well together already πŸ˜›

                                          I guess that thomthom's code uses Ruby API calls that are only available with newer versions of SketchUp.
                                          So looks like v8 can't hack it ! Sorry.

                                            So team: I haven't used this plugin in a while, and I may be doing something wrong. I am trying to make a mesh obviously. .. from a BMP of this image and all it does is stall out my Puter. What am I doing wrong? Something wrong iwth the image? not enough contrast?

                                            thx,

                                            DAustrian drape.jpg

                                            p.s. I guess i could crop it to one panel and just repeat the model. Would that help?

                                            If I make it look easy...It is probably easy
