      I have tried to get the TOS plug in to work and have unzippled and extracted it several times but I keep getting an error ,message (Error Loading File ZLoader_On Surface.rb uninitialized constant LibFredo6:: Traductor) I have already unzipped the latest version of Libfredo6 into the plugins directory too - anyone know what am I doing wrong?

          New version v1.6b, 8 May 10available.

          It allows to use the replication feature (by double-click) for shapes which are drawn perpendicular to edges.

            It would be interesting we could draw our own shapes and to save at an own library. Thanks for the great plugins. You are de best. (not the beast 😆 )

              I have loaded v1.6b. My make group or component in the contents or edit menu is grayed out. When I change the name of ZLoader__OnSurface.rb to ZLoader__OnSurface.ken, not allowing this plugin to load on start up, the contents and edit menu to make group or components is back.

              Nothing the in the ZLoader__OnSurface.rb indicates it has been upgrade to May 8.

              And I have update all the other files as required.

                Can you check the About menu of ToolsOnSurface. It should indicate the version and date.

                  Here is the about menu for TOS

                  Thanks for the quick response

                    Ken,

                    On which type of selected geometry do you observe the menu grayout?

                    If it is on San or on a single group or component, this may be a normal behavior in SU, which assumes you do not need to make a component or group from a single component or group.

                      I was using a simple rectangle. Selected face and lines, not able to make group or component. Tried again with two rectangles, selected all, not able to group or make component. With ZLoader__OnSurface.rb not loaded, able to group rectangle or rectangles.

                      Note, the difference in the two screen shots, is ZLoader__OnSurface.rb being allowed to load or not allowed to load.

                        Ken can you enter this into the console:
                        l=[];ObjectSpace.each_object {|x| l.push x if x.class==UI::Command } ; l.length

                        Try with it unloaded before right click
                        Try with it unloaded after right click
                        Loaded before right click
                        Loaded after right click

                          Attached is the required screen shots.

                          Top is always before right click, bottom is after right click.

                          Thanks to Fredo and Tom for their help.

                            hm... this appear to be caused by something else then. As the number has not reached 1000.

                              Ken,

                              This bug is very strange.

                              Would you mind to make the same test with another of my scripts (say FredoScale or Roundcorner). This will help me to determine whether this is specific to ToolsOnSurface or this comes from the shared library LibFredo6. I can't reproduce the bug myself.

                              Also, on the pictures you posted, I noticed that the cursor is a large white arrow. Are you popping up the context menu from with the SU Selection tool or from within another tool?

                              Thanks again

                              Fredo

                                I was extracting to a different folder - just copied the files to the folder indicated by TIG and it works no problem. Thanks for a great plugin and super help for getting me going with it.

                                  By the way, do you experience the same problems as Ken does (see his above message) about the menu gray out syndrom?

                                    Not as yet but then again I am not as accomplished a modeller as these other guys and probably am not asking the plug in to do any thing too difficult. I use your Fredoscale plugin on a daily basis but rarely use the TOS one. I have tried to replicate the grey menu but have not been able to do so as yet. Sorry for the late reply.

                                      [Important Upgrade version 1.6c, 15 May 10]

                                      I just realized that in v1.6b, I have introduced a ennoying bug in the inferencing of the tool LineOnSurface.

                                      This is fixed in this new release 1.6c.

                                          HI,

                                          I am trying to get this to install on my new computer and it isn't coming up for me. I have dropped both rb file as well as the tools file into the plugins folder, open sketchup and am not finding it. Is there a companion plug in needed for this, or am I missing something else. thanks so much for the help..Keea
