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

      😳 🤣 Vive mon anglais désastreux !

      You're welcome Cornel !! 😉

                        ..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!

                                matt,

                                do no be sorry. just keep the tests coming.

                                see the results in the attached picture. i do not get any error messages. it just does not change units.

                                cheers.

                                  😲 toggle_units(1) works!! Try toggle_units(1), toggle_units(2), toggle_units(3) etc... And take a look in the units window (Windows->Model info->Units), normally drawing unit changes...
                                  So I will post an update soon with toolbar code changed! Thank you Edson !

                                        matt,

                                        good news from the mac side of life. it works. however, in order to see the change in the info panel i must close it and open it again (not a big problem).

                                        what could be improved is the fact that the icon bar does not reflect the present units chosen. see the picture: i have decimal and centimeters on it but the icon bar is not reflecting it. sometimes it is all gray, others white. the buttons seem to "stick".

                                        but we made some progress.

                                          Thank you Edson! We will slowly succeed! 😄

                                          Another request, please... A daunting request...

                                          Can you open your ruby console and your units window (in model info), please?
                                          Copy and paste code below in the ruby console

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

                                          Change unit format, paste the code in the ruby console and give me the result like that :

                                          @unknownuser said:

                                          Unit format (decimal, Architectural) -> result of the code

                                          Can You do that for all SU unit Format please? 😛

                                          The same thing for units length... With this code :

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

                                          Here is units options in SU/Windows :
                                          Unit Format

                                          • Architectural -> 1
                                          • Decimal -> 0
                                          • Engineering -> 2
                                          • Fractionnal -> 3

                                          Unit Length

                                          • Inches -> 0
                                          • Feet -> 1
                                          • Millimeters -> 2
                                          • Centimeters -> 3
                                          • Meters -> 4

                                            sorry, max. it may seem clear to you but i am not getting what i am supposed to do. lead me through it, ok?

                                            after i paste Sketchup.active_model.options["UnitsOptions"]["LengthFormat"] what do i do? where do decimal and meters go? with or without quotation marks, etc? and where do i insert the unit options?

                                            write down one of the options and i will figure out the others.

                                            cheers.
