[Plugin] LordOfTheToolbars - v4.2a - 21 Oct 26

[TIG]

@Horizon41
@fredo6 will advise - I suspect that there might be some files/subfolders to remove then reinstall - perhaps not all in the Plugins folder ... followed by a 'clean reinstall' ...
He'll advise in detail...

It is possible that it could also be registry related. I use CCCleaner from time to time and I have had issues with sketchup before. This is unlikely as it happened straight after the update and I did not use the cleaner. Any registry issues have been resolved by doing a repair/install of sketchup. I have also come across a plugin conflict with 1001 tools that affected LOTT.

I have LOTT 4.0a loaded & Libfredo 16.2b. When I create a toolbar and I tick the block for it to show up and want to add functions to the toolbar it shows in the toolbar editor but not in the actual toolbar, not when closing and re-opening the toolbar or when restarting SU. The only way I can currently solve this is to delete the toolbar and recreate it.

+++EDIT+++

Also, some icons are not loading for some extensions as they take longer to load into SU and then LOTT is already loaded, so it doesn't pick them up. Is there perhaps a chance of putting an load delay timer option in to work around this problem?

Is there a roadmap for the next release? Hopefully this will resolve the problem with the toolbar creation.

@juju,

I am not clear with the first problem. Maybe you could produce a short video to explain what you do and what does not work (even in French).

I am not clear either with the second issue. LOTT waits for all plugins to be loaded in menus and toolbars normally. Do you have an example of an extension which is delayed?

[juju]

@fredo6

I hope this makes sense for the toolbar creation issue?

The starting up and not loading an extension (due to it not having finished loading already, it checks licencing and takes a couple of seconds) seems to be limited to MuzWalls.

@juju
It should be fixed in LOTT v42.a. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[fredo6]

Does this mean it works now?

[juju]

@fredo6 Thank you for the effort you put into your extensions and maintaining them, it is appreciated.

The Muzwalls loading error seems to be resolved, that error message no longer pops up. Unfortunately the custom toolbars with the MuzWalls items doesn't work, buttons greyed out while the actual MuzWalls toolbars are fine and functional.

The toolbar editing problem, where items are not added once the toolbar was checked to appear on screen, still persists. It doesn't update any custom toolbar additions or omissions once the toolbar was selected to appear on screen. The only work-around is to delete the toolbar and recreate it from fresh.
