[Plugin] SketchUcation Tools
-
With the extension Store Plugin How do you know what you're looking at before downloading or does one have to look them up first in the extension warehouse?
thanks, Billy

Stretch the dialog wider. Or click the little triangle next to the Authors name.

Hello everybody
I would like to share my Extension Store plugin bundle with my colleagues in the office.
How do I use the Sketchucation Tools / Extension Store3 to install a 'bundle' across multiple PC's?
As every person logs in with their own 'profile' on their PC in our office, it seems not possible to install plugins on their PC via my login, as the installation is 'profile based'.
I hope this makes sense.
Or is the only way, that each user creates their own Sketchucation (and extension warehouse) login profile in order to install plugins? Can I share a bundle with other profiles?
Many thanks in advance. Any ideas are much appreciated.

Bundle sharing isn't possible.
You would need a scenario where all PCs log in using one account and changes are synced to all devices.
I think Pixero has a build of the ExtensionStore where we trialed this type of scenario. Where one person had managerial rights in an office environment. All other PCs could not install extensions only the manager could.
Don't know if he uses it though?
We revisit the Extension this summer to fix the issues and add new sparkles and knobs.

No I'm not. It was too strict as the end user could not add their own favorite plugins.
I ended up using a "multi" login to one account for those who wished to use the predefined bundles.
Not ideal though. I wish there was a "corporate" version where the admin could set levels of strictness. and maybe even force updates.
I'd happily elaborate on this if you are considering doing something like that. -
New version of sketchucation tools increases loading time for sketchup significantly.
Opening and closing the plugin's interface now has a loading time too before I can continue with my work. Reverting to the previous version had everything back at normal.

Do you mean 3.1.3 has increased startup time? Which version are you reverting to?

I reverted back to Sketchucation 2.0

I am trying to install and when I open Sketch up Preferences I do not have the extensions option
What is my next step? -
Go to Window > Extension Manager to install after SketchUp 2016

Got it!! thanks so much

Just wanted to share -
I had to disable most of my plugins due to a conflict with Vray 3.6.01. After update to Vray 3.6.02, most conflicts were fixed, but it seems that it still isn't getting along with Sketchucation Tools. After installing Sketchucation Tools, getting bugsplat while SU file is loading. Had to delete from Plugins folder to get SU file to open.
Hope they get all the conflicts worked out, I really miss Sketchucation Tools.

I didn't check...had a looming deadline that morning... Actually, i'm not sure I could check the ruby console....sketchup wouldn't open(bugsplat while file was opening.) Wouldn't I need SU open to check console?..(i don't know squat about programming..) Is there a log file that stores info in these cases?

At the moment the only way to do this is to PM me and I can manually erase the bundles. There are plans to implement this function it is not in the current release.

I'll PM you an old RBZ...
Hi TIG,
Any chance you can shoot me the same rbz? i.e the 2.0/2.6 version that is.
Thanks.
-
Info in plugin store say:
.....<=v8 stick with v2.6...
Please upload old versions 2.0/2.6 if possible! -
After some searching through archives...
Here's an old version RBZ [2.6.2] that should work with v8 - BUT please remember that ALL other users with a newer SketchUp versions should always use the latest version 3... RBZ from the PluginStore.
SketchUcationToolset_v2.6.2-b11.rbz
No promises that it's perfect !
