Importing SVG

Jim

Just so you know, we've had this posted back in 2008 (but now removed)

http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=13475

The problem is the file set.rb uses a Set class that is in conflict with SketchUp's built-in Set class, which can cause other plugins which rely on the Set class to fail (in sometimes subtle ways that are hard to debug.)

It may be possible to fairly easily wrap the entire plugin in a unique namespace, but I don't think anyone has tried it.

Yes, I found that.
But I think that declaring this incompatibility is much better than removing a possibility - so you don`t ban people from using a function when necessary.

Does that mean it is very likely to risk conflicts when installing svg.rb?
I'd love to have vectors from Inkscape imported, but I don't want to mess up my plugins...

Svg.rb is ok, but it loads set.rb.
Set.rb disables smoove from sandbox tools.
That`s it.
So I keep both svg.rb and set.rb away from plugins folder and move them back in only when needed.

You could try this:
'disable' set.rb by renaming it set.rb.txt
edit the file ../Plugins/remxl/parsers/baseparser.rb
near the start disable the require for set by prefixing the line with a #, thus
**#**require 'set'
You should still get the required 'Set' functions loaded by Sketchup for the svg tool AND sandbox...

Try it this way and report back - you should then get both tools working..........

I have no knowledge of scripts, just follow the instructions.

Regards to all, and I hope someone helps us.

oh, oh, I'm a bit frightened But however, thanks for your efforts guys! Guess I'll be not diving into svg too soon, but sure remain interested...
cheers

Looks like my idea isn't working as the SUp's Set has fewer methods than set.rb's Set ... F
So forget what I said earlier - you can have either svg.rb [with set.rb] working OR the Sandbox-Tools [and any other tools using 'Set' methods]... But not both. You must choose.

Any fix on that in the meantime?
Thanks.

Really...
An English forum and you didn't even bother to use Google Translate or alike...?!?

Please note that this plugin dates back to 2010...
I don't think you're going to make it work with newer versions of SketchUp...
