[Plugin] Material Browser - v1.1.0 - 12 Oct 2025

SketchUcation tools only loads the ZIP gem stuff if it hasn't been already loaded [requited].
I suggest you adjust your code to do the same.
It doesn't break things. it just warns about it already being installed ?

@Dave-R
Thank for your interest. What was the source of the material you were targeting? The active model, a local collection, or Poly Haven?

Once selected in the Material Browser plugin window, a material can be applied in the SketchUp scene with the Paint Bucket tool.

In your case, selection seems to have succeed... Did the plugin add wanted material to the model and select the Paint Bucket tool?

If request was successful, you should get JSON.
Was this response "instant" or "seconds long"?

I will. Thanks for your suggestion.

Seems

By the way, SketchUcation Tools v5.0.2 bundles Rubyzip v1.1.6, whereas Material Browser v1.1.0 bundles Rubyzip v1.3.0.
Upon GitHub tags, this latter is the highest version compatible with SketchUp 2017 (Ruby v2.2.4), since Rubyzip v2.0.0 requires at least Ruby 2.4.
