      This is most likely a 'signing' issue...
      Many older plugins/extensions are not 'signed' - this doesn't mean they won't work - but obviously changes to Ruby in newer SketchUp versions can break very old scripts...
      There's no incentive at all for authors of very old 'free' scripts to get them signed, or even re-signed...

      If is is reported as 'unsigned' in the Extension Manager dialog it will still load and work IF you have your Extension Loading Policy set to 'Unrestricted'.
      Provided that you are only installing scripts from reputable sources - e.g. EWH, our PluginStore/ExtensionStore³, or from well know authors' own web-sites [or your own attempts!] - then there's nothing to worry about...

        Thanks for the replies. I am using SU 2017 - updated my profile- and have the Extension Loading Policy set at "unrestricted", but still no luck.

          What do you mean by no luck? What is happening or not happening?

              YES! View = toolbars! That's what I was trying to remember. Works fine now. Thanks for the help.

                Okay, Clipping and paste in place seems to do (part of) the job... 😕

                  Hey,

                  I have been looking for a while now for a way of projecting a line/edge onto a face.
                  However this tool (as well as the plugin projection_extension) doesn't behave the way I would like them to:

                  When I project a line that is longer than the face is wide, the face is not split in two, and the projected line extends over the edges of the face. I would like the projected line to only exist on the face, or at least to be cut into two where it intersects another line.

                  Am I doing something wrong, or is there a different plugin that does that? Help appriciated!!

                    Hello,
                    I know it's an old plugin and "long no touch", since the last update was a few years ago. It worked perfectly till SketchUp 2020, but in 2021 I can see none of Projections' commands on the list in shortcut preferences. All tools work fine from the toolbar, but I cannot assign any hotkey, due to lack of records in preferences.
