      Try to copy iconv.so(in plugins\sutool\ro) to plugins folder...

      The problem is still the missing "inconv.dll". Someone has the same problem?? Perhaps it´s only me.

        iconv.dll comes when you install the full Ruby language. I have uploaded it here, but I'm not sure where to tell you to put it - I would try in the SUTools folder first, or the Plugins folder. It might not work at all.

        The plugin works well for me. I will write up a quick How-to.

        Hi

          wikii,

          This is a very nice plugin.

          I would like to make a suggestion: can you make the tool window so it remembers it's size?

          Hi

              WebDialog has no methods to get the window's position, 😞
              I hava tried to get screen size using JavaScript in html with get_element_value methods,it can work in SU ruby panel.

              In html:

              @unknownuser said:

              <script language="javascript">
              document.write('<div style="display:none;" ><input type="text" name="textfield" id="screen_width" style="width:150px;" value="'+ screen.width + '" /></div>')</javascript>

              In rb program:

              @unknownuser said:

              $dlg.get_element_value "screen.width"

              when the program is running, $dlg.get_element_value "screen.width" always get nothing;but in ruby panel,$dlg.get_element_value "screen.width" return "1680",that's exact my screen width!
              If somebody can tell me why and give me some advice, SUTool will go farther.

              If not, I will add a setting file to SUTool.User can modify it manually.

              Another question,Jim,have you installed the full Ruby language?

                Yes, I have installed the full Ruby language installation.

                The WebDialog should remember it's location if you have provided it the "preferences_key" option. Just don't call the set_size method and it should use the last size and location automatically.

                Hi

                  Thank you Jim!!! I don´t get the error when i put the iconv.dll in the plugins folder.
                  But i cannot find how to start the webdialog... is not on plugins.. tools... nowhere?

                  Thank you again,

                    Daniel,

                    It should be in the Plugins menu:

                      Not in my plugins menu..
                      Perhaps is because i have not installed the full Ruby language 😒

                        The iconv.dll and iconv.so files are used for converting or translating strings. I think if you edit the convert.rb file in the RO folder you can make it work.

                        
                        #require "iconv"
                        def sutool_convert_string(s)
                         # Iconv.iconv("GB2312//IGNORE","uTF-8//IGNORE",s)[0]
                          s
                        end

                          Thank you Jim!!!! Now is working!!! 😍

                          And i try removing the iconv.dll and works too... the problem was the convert.rb code.

                          Now i have to see how to add the plugins 😄

                          Thank you again!!
                          Daniel S

                          EDIT: the iconv.dll is needed.. if you open more than one sketchup it pop-up a msg. With the .dll in the plugins folder all works fine.

                            This plugin is really good for all those "other", infrequently used plugins you use.

                            You can create any number of dropdown menus. The menus are controlled by .ini files - one for each menu.

                            In the SuTools folder there is a sub-folder named "ini" Inside are the files that the plugin uses to create each menu. Each ini file start with a 2-digit code - the code goves the order of the menus in the plugin dialog. The 2-digit code is followed by the menu name.

                            
                            01SelectTool.ini
                            02FaceTools.ini
                            ...
                            
                            

                            Before you begin adding plugins, you can create your own personal menu list. Just create a new, blank file using the ##Name.ini code.

                            When you reload SuTools plugin, your menu will be available.

                                    Been try to decipher this thread. Looks like a convenient way to organize/reorganize scipts.

                                    Would you mind summarizing "how" this works (in general terms), how to install and modify?

                                        I downloaded this: SUTool_v0.08en.rar
