You never answered my question about proper installation of SketchUp. Did you install SketchUp 2018 and 2019 correctly?

sorry i don't remember that how i had installed.
but give main an hour to reinstall as you said.

You do not need to 'reinstall'.
Login as your normal Windows user-account.
Ensure SketchUp is closed.
Find the SketchUp installer file's exe icon - it's probably in your Downloads folder.
Then select it, right-click > context-menu > "Run as administrator"
When prompted choose "Repair"
Done.

It will not harm your existing set up - just 'repair' it, if that is necessary

Since the bugsplat is reproducible on your environment and is not on Dave's or mine, there must be something on your side, possibly a conflict with another plugin (maybe a redefinition of random methods).

If you have time, could you remove suspicious plugins, in general not mainstream, and check if you get the bug splat.

Many thanks

i already tried with only JPP and fredoLib installed. but this also not work.
but you're right there is something wrong with my pc.
today i tested JPP on my brother pc and it's working fine there.
i don't know what i should do to fix this issue.
reinstall windows?
any suggestion?
and Thanks for your time.

No need to reinstall Windows...

Did you try with another model file?

Also, can you confirm that

you get the bugsplat only when using the Random feature of JPP
whether this happens for both Normal and Joint tools (since both have a random option)

with all JPP tools and with any model

When you get the Bug Splats are you sending them in with your e-mail address attached? As a licensed SketchUp Pro user with up-to-date Maintenance and Support, you could file a ticket with their Technical Support folks and ask them to look at the Bug Splat reports and decipher what is happening to cause the splat. At this point, since you seem to be the only one having a problem and we can't reproduce the Bug Splats even with your file, more information is needed.

Getting a bugsplat when trying to change the random push pull values. in sketchup 2019 and 18
any solution?

problem fixed after doing following steps:

Uninstall sketchup (2019 and 18) with revo uninstall (also delete Leftovers items and registry files)

Reinstall only su19
after opening first time this give me this error "mfc140u.dll" Missing

install Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015
and
uninstall Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017

Done!

Thank you Fredo6 and Dave R for response.

Glad to see that it now works for you.

Still, this is puzzling, and I don't really see why JointPushPull would specifically crash in relation to the version of C++, since it is pure Ruby.

Hi Fredo,
I was just doing a gif to show something in JPP and noticed it breaks the dimension connection.
Checked 2018,19,20.
FredoScale for example doesn't break the connection.

Not sure if it has always been that way and I just don't remember it being like that.

pilou · 5 Feb 2020, 14:14

Breaking also in the 2017!

fredo6 · 5 Feb 2020, 14:54

JointPushPull technically creates faces (and thus new vertices), whereas FredoScale just uses a scaling transformation and therefore keeps the faces and vertices homologous.

JointPushPull does not use native pushpull methods, due to the fact that it is multi-face tool.

So it is normal that JPP loses the dimension connections.

Reconstructing them is maybe possible, but probably some work due to the variety of topological situations, and also the poor support of the API for dimensions. I have to check if the connections are exposed in the API and can be reconstructed.

EDIT: just checked that for linear dimensions, there is a possibility to manage the attachment, but as of SU2019.

Box · 5 Feb 2020, 20:26

Thanks for letting me know, I was just pointing it out incase it was a bug, just one of those things I hadn't noticed before.

I need a help. I'm trying to export an object and experimenting the folling error at the "erase coplanar edges":
An error occurred in Round Push Pull
Error in generation of the geometry

reference to deleted Entity

jointpushpullgeometry.rbe: 1023 -- entityID
jointpushpullgeometry.rbe: 1023 -- block in geometry_coplanar_edges
jointpushpullgeometry.rbe: 1020 -- each

jointpushpullgeometry.rbe: 362 -- each

jointpushpullgeometry.rbe: 81 -- block in geometry_execute
lib6operation.rbe: 370 -- step_geometry

What i'm doing wrong?

Nothing a priori.

I have fixed the problem itself (to go in a next version of JPP), but that does not mean you will get a correct result, because you must likely be in a special situation of topology (which RoundPushPull is very sensitive to).

It would help if you posted the model and indicate which operation you were trying to perform.

Hi, I am having a problem with this plugin SU2020 - Trying to use the jointpushpull= and a little grade surface keep showing up and the tool doesn't work. Any solutions?

Dave R · 2 Apr 2020, 12:56

You've given no useful information making it impossible to help. Share your SketchUp file and give a clear description of what you are trying to accomplish. Also show us what settings you are using with the extension.

daniabreu1 · 3 Apr 2020, 18:59

Thanks Dave. Somehow I uninstall it and installed again and it works. Thank you for trying to help tho!
