      CleanUp doesn't support translation right now.

      If you want to translate, add a comment in the issue tracker; https://bitbucket.org/thomthom/cleanup/issues/16/localize

      Mention what language you can contribute with.

      Done!!

      P.S.: Thom, have you see your private messages, I sent you a message a week ago about UVToolKit plugin.

          Try clearing the computer's Internet Explorer cache and restarting SketchUp to see if that helps...

            Does anyone have some alternative plugins to this tool? It's pretty much useless in v.2019 except in the smallest drawings. Cleanup just takes too long now.

            I'd like another plugin that can remove lines without a face and coplanar lines. One that handles lonely vertices fast too would be great, but could be a separate tool (Fredo's tool works but I like the way CleanUp did it).

            Used to be the greatest tool in earlier SketchUp versions.

              As I was saying on Youtube, I get a blank menu like the one in the attachment. What am I doing wrong?

              Also can you recommend an easy fix for all the holes that are created (like the ones in the 2nd attachment) when I import an STL file. It takes me HOURS to manually fix all the holes!

              Thanks for your help!


              just get this dark gray blank menu for some reason...


              whats an easy way to fix these holes, I have tried just about every tool I can find!

                  Hasn't anyone else had problems with this tool in v. 2019? It has slowed considerably as to be mostly useless (i.e. you can do the cleanup faster yourself). It seems to be related to file size though you are only working on a selection. The larger the file, the slower it is.

                  It's too bad. It was one of the greatest tools!

                    Which version of CleanUp are you using? I'm using CleanUp3 and it works as fast in v2019 as in any other version.

                      Unchecking "Validate Results" and "Erase Duplicate Faces" in the settings menu speeds things up immensely on larger models. If I want to erase duplicate faces later, I usually set it to go at the end of the day.

                        Can anyone try to clean this up real quick to make sure its not my computer or version or what not. Super simple.

                        Trying to delete the coplaner faces and get rid of all the extra lines.

                          Running CleanUp3 on the bottom plate won't delete the coplanar edges because you've got different materials applied to the faces. Instead, those edges will be hidden.

                          On the top plate there are no coplanar edges to remove because there are holes above each stud.

                          The extension works fine. There just isn't anything for it to do.

                            WHAT IS WRONG?
                            I have uninstalled Cleanup3 and TT Lib, deleted the folders, cleaned the cache, downloaded and reinstalled both from scratch and I STILL get a blank menu!
                            Yesterday I even installed SU2019 and still nothing but a blank gray menu like my attachment above.
                            Somebody please help!

                              Did you install SketchUp correctly? That is, did you right click on the downloaded installer file and select Run as administrator?

                                No I did not before, but I just completely uninstalled it and started fresh with 19.2 that just released and this time I installed with admin privelages.
                                So after getting it all back up and running before installing any other extensions I tried Cleanup3 and yet again, just a blank gray menu! I don't understand it... It's the ONLY extension I have any issues with.

                                  What exactly do you mean by this? Does that mean you logged into windows as your normal user, find the installer, right click on it and choose Run as administrator? Or did you log into Windows as the administrator and install SketchUp?

                                      For the avoidance of doubt...

                                      Here's the only correct way to install [or repair] SketchUp on a PC.
                                      Login to your PC using your normal users Windows-account - if that user has admin-powers it is unimportant.
                                      Do not login as the separate 'administrator' account.
                                      Ensure SketchUp is closed.
                                      Find the SketchUp installer's exe file - probably in your Downloads folder.
                                      Select its icon, right-click > context-menu > "Run as administrator"
                                      When prompted choose "Repair".
                                      [Alternatively, if it's a brand new installation choose "Install"]
                                      When it completes restart SketchUp and see what happens...

                                      Running the installer in any other way - e.g. by double-clicking its icon - will result in unpredictable issues, often around file/folder permissions and saved preferences etc...

                                      If you have installed Plugins etc these should be unaffected by a "Repair".


                                      A few Extensions, like Fredo's Lib, might have created a subfolder/files to save preferences with bad permissions in an earlier incorrect SketchUp setup. This is fixed by deleting the faulty folder.

                                      In the case of Fredo's Lib...

                                      Close SketchUp.
                                      Find your 'Local' folder %LocalAppData% and find its subfolder named LIBFREDO6_DATA_Dir - delete it and its contents.
                                      It is hidden by default, but it should be directly accessible when you use that %...% path in a Windows Explorer window...
                                      When you restart SketchUp that preferences folder and its contents should get recreated, this time with good permissions...


                                      Also note that some older and backwardly compatible Extensions use Internet Explorer on a PC, to create complex dialogs.
                                      This is irrespective of the browser you my use day to day.
                                      Sometimes the IE cache gets cross-threaded and causes issues.
                                      Open IE and clear the entire cache.
                                      See if that helps with flaky dialogs...

                                        I appreciate your advice, but I do not have any other issues with Sketchup or extensions ONLY Cleanup 3 and a blank gray menu no matter what. And as I stated earlier, this is a brand new fresh install with admin privileges, so I'm pretty sure there is nothing wrong with the .exe file.
                                        Sketchup has so many bugs its beyond ridiculous! I'm one of many people that has this same issue. I can't understand why they haven't fixed the multiple faces bug that has been known about for years. I have had up to 15 faces on top of each other by drawing 1 single line!

                                            Do you mean the Extensions menu?

                                            Did you try restarting SketchUp after installation of these extensions?

                                            When you installed SketchUp, did you do so correctly? That is did you right click on the downloaded installed and choose Run as administrator from the context menu?
