[Plugin] SketchUcation Tools
-
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 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.

Anything in the ruby console? Anyone else running into similar issue?

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.

hi Gabor,
thnx for your answer.
im looking forward to the modified version!hope you implement all my (user) loved plugins not only the first 20 of them.

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 ! -
Thank you Mr. TIG,
This version give some errors.
Anyway it is enough for me as I'll use only Plugin Manager.
(So I removed extra .rbs files in main folder and Error disappeared.)
Thank you again.(Why SketchUp 8 - I decided to make a backup copy of SketchUP-8 with useful plugins inside - may be a stupid task, but it will stay in my archives.
And for information only - v8 is a lot faster at startup.) -
Hi everyone
How can I install a plugin into a custom folder through ExtensionStore v3.18 which the plugin info clearly says I can.
"Install SketchUp plugins or extensions into custom folder locations" from https://sketchucation.com/plugin/696-sketchucationtools
-
If you have more than one plugins folder defined for that version of SketchUp, then you are prompted with a dialog to choose the alternative destination - the standard Plugins folder is the default.
Some users get caught out by this dialog initially being sized to small to show the whole dropdown list - if so resize it by dragging a corner... its new size should then be remembered across sessions.
Obviously if you don't have any alternative plugins folders defined the choice dialog is skipped...
You can also have an additional Plugins folder set up if you have installed some complex app that used its own installer - often a rendering app.
This is often not installed in your user's Plugins folder, but a shared Plugins folder in the ProgramData path - install in there if you want all users to have that extension loading into their equivalent version of SketchUp...
If there's no ProgramData Plugins folder it's not listed.Another way to create your own extra Plugins folders is to use an extension - typically Fredo's 'Additional Plugins Folders' available from the PluginStore - this lets you define your own destination folder[s] which is then added to SketchUp's installation-destinations list as SketchUp starts.
You typically use this tool to load your preferred extensions from your own special plugins folder[s], perhaps having it shared across several versions of SketchUp [all running Fredo's 'Additional Plugins Folders'].
With an additional folder set up, the choice dialog should list it as an alternative to the main Plugins folder... -
Hi,
i recently updated to SKP 2021.
In my running SKP 2020 i got the update to sketchucation store 4.0
and i installed it.Since this update i got massive problems and freezes with SKP 2020
when i want to load the context menu (right mouse click).SKP 2020 got a neverending beachball of death and i have to
do a hard shutdown of SKP 2020.I tried to activate/deactivate all of my plugins (i have many).
no plugin makes problems, but when i activate sketchucation store,
the freezes in context menu starts.the problem is definitely the sketchucation store 4.0 plugin in SKP 2020.
Can i somewhere download the older version to try, if it works.
Better would be to fix the plugin for SKP 2020.
Greetings
Johnny
