Joint Push Pull Classic (Old version) - v2.2a - 26 Apr 17

burgerlord

thanks fredo for the plugin! XD

I am a newbie so please say if this is in wrong place etc.

I downloaded the great looking joint push pull tool for the first time today and it crashes SketchUp Pro 7.1 when I try to use it. I have a Mac G4 1.25MHz. The files seem to be in the Plugin folder correctly.

I have only tried the simplest push pull with a simple rectangle or circle in an otherwise empty model. With any of the tools used to extend a face, when I push enter or context click done, the dialogue box fills with ||||||||||| and then crashes.

Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong?

Any answers welcome. Thanks very much, Paul

I don't remember crashes have been reported on 7.1 specifically. So I have a few questions to try figuring out where it come from:

Do you have some of my other plugins installed, in particular those using LibFredo6?
Is the crash a bugsplat (SU exits) or a freeze
Is the crash systematic, and for any type of face selection, or does it happen occasionally?
Does it happen when you use PushPull by Vector or Normal PushPull?
which exact version of SU 7.1 do you have?
Maybe, could you post the simple model so that I have a look. However, as I don't have a Mac, I can only check on Windows if this comes from the SU 7.1 release.

Thanks

Fredo,

Many thanks for the speedy reply.

Before answering your questions, just to say that your most excellent plug-in works fine as long as I am editing inside a group, but it does crash if I work in the general scene and try to use any of the three tools to pushpull.

I have no other of your plug-ins installed.
SU exits immediately after I push enter.
Not being SUper proficient, what different types of faces are there to push pull?
Happens with either V or N.
SU 7.1.5803

In the model you attached, all geometry is within a group. So you have to be inside the group to do any Push Pull, because the script requires to select faces first. I played with JPP and got no crash (wth SU 7.1.4871, but on Windows XP).
I exploded the group to see if there was an issue, but had no 'success' (I mean no crash).

Could you then describe precisely what is the sequence of actions you do from the model you posted.

Fredo,

You are right about the group, as I was trying to say (probably not clearly), there is no problem when editing within the group.

However, if I make a simple rectangle (or other shape) in the general scene and I do not make it a group before using the plug-in; then SU crashes as soon as I enter done after using the plug-in (either for V, J or N). I have tried several times including for two faces of a cube and other forms, and every time it crashes.

Perhaps as you have no other reports of this problem, it is the fact that I am now working on an older mac which is the cause. If so please don't worry about it, I'm very happy with the excellent plug-in and can use it in a group in a separate file before putting the group in my main file. One day soon I may get a new mac!

Thanks, Paul

Paul,

I doubt this has anything to do with the age of your Mac. There may be a bug in SU 7.1 that is revealed when using JPP.
Actually SU 7.1 contains valuable enhancements on performance but has introduced many issues too, some being on Mac.

It is true that I am not in the best position to help, as I do not have a Mac, and whatever I do with your model on my Windows PC, inside or outside groups, it desperatly works fine.

I got an Mac Mini G4 1.25Ghz, OSX10.4. SU7.1M1.
No crashes. JPP works just fine.

I installed lastest versions of LibFredo and JointPushPull, but
when I open SU appears an error message: Error Loading File jointpushpull.rb
No such file to load -- LibTraductor.rb.
What's wrong?

Chris Fullmer

His first post mentions that you will need that file and a few others installed to run this plugin. You can search the plugins forum for it. It has its own thread dedicated to it I think.
