      Hello everybody,
      Does anybody have any contacts with the Author of Edit Flag plugin - AshScott?
      The plugin seems to didn't work with SU2021, but it is very useful for construction projects.

      Thanks in advance

        I don't think the author has been around for many years...

        However, the error relates to one line of code - where newer Ruby versions are less forgiving about messing about with 'frozen-strings' etc...

        Edit this file using a plain-text editor like Notepad++ or TextWrangler.

        ../Plugins/Coastal_Concepts_EditFlag/EditFlag.rb

        Find line #19 which reads:

        LOAD_TAG = Module.nesting[0].name << ';' << File.basename(__FILE__)
        

        Edit it to read:

        LOAD_TAG = Module.nesting[0].name.dup << ';' << File.basename(__FILE__)
        

        Save the edited RB file and restart SketchUp...

        Now with the additional .dup code you are working with a copy of the Module's name, not the name itself ! It now adds menu items etc as intended...

            Greetings,

            How about SU 2022. I have changed the code as above. Alas it does not function with the 2022 version.
            Is there any fix for it?

            Thank you in advance.

              It works fine for me in v2022, with the simple .dup edit...
              Are you following the instructions exactly - e.g. editing the correct file, then saving it and restarting SketchUp.
              Its entry is in the Edit menu and should be 'ticked'...
