      Hey,
      Can anyone shed some 'light' on this...please!
      I am running Mac 10.5.5
      I have X11 installed.
      I have downloaded KT and SU2KT.
      Sketchup shows KT as a plugin and when I export my drawing it converts to an .xml file.
      PROBLEM: When I try to open the model in KT, I am asked to:PLEASE Locate Kerkythea Executable?

      Suggestions?

      BTW, I have read the Tuts and reloaded everything and still can't find an answer.

      Thx,

        I'm not on a Mac myself... 😐
        The SU2KT plug-in was originally made for Windows...

        So - when prompted to locate the executable, please disregard this message and just open the exported XML-file directly in KT using the File > Open... πŸ˜‰

        Cheers

          Thanks for the reply...
          My problem is that I cannot access the stand alone KT GUI. The folder is in my HD Apps, but there doesn't seem to be a way to open KT.
          Am I just having a 'brain fart' or being obtuse? I wonder if there is a prob with my X11?

          BTW, apologies for my little rant... I know you guys are doing an awesome job!

            Got it! For Mac users who run into this sitch, the way to open the standalone or SU plugin KT-GUI is go to the KT Applications folder and click on the 'word' kerkythea. Now all I need to do is link it to an icon and put it in the 'dock'.

              Unfortunately I'm not on a Mac myself, which makes it really difficult to come up with advices... 😞

              Have you downloaded and read the Instructions for Running Kerkythea on a Mac tutorial..??

              Although I'm not on a Mac, that tutorial seem to explain the steps very well... πŸ˜‰

              No need to apologize anything... πŸ˜‰
              I fully understand your frustration...
              Thanks for your kind words..!! Much appreciated..!! πŸ˜„
