[Plugin] Align tool 3D (bug fix)

[kupono]

This is what I get when opening align_tool.rb in notepad.Bytecode?

And if you scroll to the end as Tig says do you not see the bit that needs to be changed.

Thanks for the response!

I changed the code to read as TIG said it should (image 1). I also tried it with a space between the ) and the [ with no difference

Now, when I start SU, I get this error message (image 2)

thoughts?

Sorry, I only know it works on windows.

Weird...

While I understand the drive to "upgrade" to Ruby 2.0, it is pretty frustrating that many old plugins don't work any more.

I can't get this plugin to work with Sketchup 2014. Does anyone have and ideas about this. Thanks.

Is it posible to update it for SU 2014 ?

Thanks

I didn`t read TIG's post. I followed his instructions and it works fine in su 14.

Thanks TIG

Didier has agreed that I might update some of his Plugins in the PluginStore so they are v2014/2015 compatible.
This is the latest version http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=align_tool

Thanks for the updates Tig. I was missing Align 3D.

this tool is not showing up in context menu. I am using version 2014 make

[TIG]

It works fine in v2014 and v2015.
It appears near the end of the Context menu as 'Align' - you must have something Selected...

What happens if you copy+paste this command into the Ruby Console + <enter> ?
load 'align_tool.rb'

The older versions <=v1.1 are NOT compatible beyond v2013, because of the Ruby upgrade.
So, are you using the very latest version [v1.1x] available from the PluginStore which was made compatible with all SketchUp versions [sorry but it's in ENglish only]...

If NOT then please get the latest version's RBZ installed...
Report back if there are continuing issues...

I get this

load 'align_tool.rb'
true

That's really weird. I am getting this option align in my right click menu. Restarted sketchup and wow! my option is coming.

This problem was occuring in both my PC and laptop. I am sitting on my laptop currently and the problem is gone. Didn't know what created it. Moreover on both my machines, I installed the latest version straightaway by accessing the plugin store inside sketchup via SCF plugin. Thanks for replying. Maybe this ruby console has healed my problem, dont know.

[TIG]

If it recurs see if there are any Ruby Console messages and post them.
Maybe it was just a general glitch that needed a SketchUp restart to fix it ?

There's a huge issue with this tool (I noticed it after dekade of using ) -
it distorts objects. Additional operation needed (reset skew, rotation) afterwards. Any chance to to fix it please?
