        No problem CadFather 😉

        Edson : Thank you !
        Have you unzipped ain the plugin folder, and keep icons in the folder "toggle_units_icons" ?
        If yes, Can you open ruby console, type this line please :

        Sketchup.find_support_file("tuin.gif", "Plugins/toggle_units_icons")
        

        and show me what it returns ?

        Thank you !

              Many thanks, Matt!
              For me it’s a considerable tool – I work very often w/ different unit formats on the same dwgs.

              Best regards,
              Cornel

                Matt,
                STP remplace "unity" par "unit" dans le script. Unity veut dire à peu près "unification". 😉

                                    ..on pc that happens only if fractional or engineering is selected - once i click on decimal (from the toggle units icons) all icons become selectable and everything works..

                                    i think we really need some 'certified mac testers'.. (or they may be left behind) 😉

                                        no problem, matt. it is a pleasure to be of help. could you be more specific as to which is the build to be tested? i looked at the first post of this thread and saw nothing different there.

                                          Yep! On Fedo6 advices, I changed the way that script called preferences units...
                                          So we have to try some things...
                                          Open your ruby console, copy and paste code below and can you show me the result please ?

                                          toggle_units(1)
                                          

                                          And

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

                                          And

                                          var = Sketchup.active_model.options["UnitsOptions"];var["LengthUnit"]= 4
                                          

                                          And this one (can you replace "VAR" by result of the last code entered, please ?

                                          toggle_units_validation_proc(<VAR>)
                                          

                                          Another thing : When does error message appears? While start of SU? After clicking on an icon?

                                          Sorry for all these tests, but it's necessary if I want to find the problem!
                                          Thank you Edson!
