Spacemouse plugin problem. Ruby Guru needed!

baz

I cannot get my new spacemouse to work in Su. (Works fine in Autodesk Fusion, but zoom in/out only in SU)
I have been going back and forth with 3DConnection support for days now and we cant find the problem. (Numerous configs, uninstalls, re-installs, driver roll-backs etc etc).
The 3Dx plugin does appear in the Extension Manager but only after this load error appears on startup, Be much appreciated if anybody could explain it?
Cheers Baz.

In my twenty years with this Forum, I don't think I have ever had a post not responded to, even if it's just "RTFM"

Have I posted this in the wrong discussion? Or is it insoluble?

I am still trying to trace the problem with support but nothing works
.
However this appears in the Ruby console window with this query...

load “3dxSketchup.rb”

Error: #<NameError: undefined local variable or method “3dxSketchup' for main:Object> <main>:in <main>'
SketchUp:1:in `eval'

Does anyone know what that means? Anybody?

PS: I have just tried the same install on my W/shop PC, which has very similar specs to the Studio PC. Exactly the same result, which I think rules out user or machine error.

It's partly the time of year, your post has only had 13 views as I write this. Only a few people will decipher ruby errors.

~~Oh and RTFM~~

@baz Have you ruled out an extension clash by only loading the 3Dx extension?

Judging the ruby output SketchUp's own extensions.rb is complaining

There is a big difference in how SketchUp handles webdialog stuff between 2019 and more modern editions. Recent changes did break older approaches.

If it was me, I'd rename the Plugins to ###Plugins to prevent it loading so I would have a vanilla SketchUp install.

See if that still throws errors.
