Does PC SU and MacSU use the same Ruby version?
I don't know, but I often have problems...

I can have a look on my own Mac when I get home.
Thank you !

@unknownuser said:

Hey, I notice you use $lg and then lg. Is it suppose to be two different things?
I will look in the code... Thank you!

Got it nailed!

It's all down to line 69:

case Sketchup.active_model.options[0][2]

On my mac it returned nil

Your case switch doesn't account for that value so lg is passed on as a string.


case Sketchup.active_model.options[0][2]
    when 0;lg = result[0].to_f
    when 1;lg = result[0].to_f.feet
    when 2;lg = result[0].to_f.mm
    when 3;lg = result[0].to_f.cm
    when 4;lg = result[0].to_f.m
end

My fix was to add a default handler for the switch.


case Sketchup.active_model.options[0][2]
    when 0;lg = result[0].to_f
    when 1;lg = result[0].to_f.feet
    when 2;lg = result[0].to_f.mm
    when 3;lg = result[0].to_f.cm
    when 4;lg = result[0].to_f.m
    else  ;lg = result[0].to_f
end

Not sure why line 69 return nil though, didn't look into that.

Ok cool !! Thank you for your bug research Thomthom !
I am pretty sure it works if you try this code below

Sketchup.active_model.options["UnitsOptions"]["LengthUnit"]

can you try it please ?

For "pl" variable, no problem. "$pl" is used to reuse last number entered in the polarline window...

thomthom

I'll try it and report back.

thomthom

Yes, that worked.

Matt666

Thank you Thomthom!
I've updated the first post... Can you try it on Mac please? Thank you!

Edson

Matt666

Edson

the console window was filled with a lot of stuff. this is the last piece. if you need the rest, let me know.

Ok, cool! There is also one only script that doesn't work on Mac... I'll try to do smt on it...

thomthom

I got a Mac Mini at disposal on a OSX 10.4 system. Slow as heck, but works to see if it runs.

Matt666

Ok, Thank you Thomthom!

Matt666

sorry Thomthom, but can you have a Mac look on this script, please?

Hey ThomThom & Edson,

Any ideas why i get this error when opening SU 8 after installing the polarline script?

Error Loading File polarline.rb
undefined method `file_loaded?' for main:Object

cheers

thomthom

That sounds like the file doesn't have require 'sketchup.rb'. A bug that won't be noticed if you have other plugins installed that require 'sketchup.rb'.

Matt666

Hi all!
New version updated. See first post. Thank you Thomthom & pmain68.
