[Plugin] Selection Toys
-
Has it always been like this for you? Or is it a particular version where this started?
-
not sure, i think i have noticed since the last 2 versions - but i could be wrong.. (erratic work)
don't you notice it on your machine?
-
No. I use it all the time when I work - also got co-workers that use it. Never had such problems. Which is why I'm at a loss to what it can be. If I can't reproduce it I have no idea what it could be.
Maybe it's a plugin combo?
-
um.. it must be a clash then.. with all the gems in the folders we're in need of the 'new-spot-the-clash-finder-ruby-please'
-
Is there any messages in the Ruby console?
I find it very off that menu's should become disabled. Makes no sense.
Do you have SU7 installed?
Would it be possible for you to install a fresh SU6 install and add only Selection Toys and see if you still see the same thing then? That's be one way to testing for clashes without having to remove all your plugins from your work-SU version. -
Thom, swapping the plugins folder is not a problem.. i can move them around, copy etc.. (SU 7)
the cheesed thing is the (so far) unpredictable occurrence - it doesn't happen straight away.. but 'gently' after a while..
as you know it could be anything. but it's good to know it works on your side - only need some time to look into it

Hi thomthom,
I have started with v1.5.1 and we are now with v1.12.0 !! even and even complete and useful.
Many thanks..

CadFather: do your model often have a high number of layers?
-
not that many - say 6 to 8 for a fairly complex model - i use groups/comps more
(i'm still looking...no luck so far)
-
You running many other applications?
I'm wondering if this post has any clues to the menu issues: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=20791#p175253 -

Amen, I'll definitely second that suggestion!!
-
i see, interesting.. though i never experienced Rick's behaviour (i don't usually have many apps running in the background)
certainly i never saw an item re-appear.. would be nice to have a confirmation from google about ruby limits..seems to mean that if selection toys (for example) had less items the problem might temporarily disappear..
i think the 'new-spot-the-clash-finder-ruby-please', if at all possible, would have to come from google.

I'll make a deubg version for you, though, it'll have to be next week. I'm going away for a small trip.

it's rather an impossible task. first you have to know what the "clash" is. Meaning you have to know exactly how everything is expected to work. can't see you can program that...
-
no hurry, enjoy your trip Thom..
-
I have the same problem as CADfather had...
I only use SU6, checked every plugins and found the problem in this script (Version1.12.0), It didn't happen before in lower versions.
just after some open&close group action, the bug occurs, right-click menu Grey-out...
so if you have any thing need me feedback, don't hesitate to tell me! -
Here's a debug version with the layer filters removed. Can the people that has experienced problems with the menu's try this and see if that solves the matter.
-
Right on!
EDIT: seems to be working now.. i need to spend more time with it but the early signs are good.. Thanks Thom! (now you can go..)
-
I will try this version, if I have a problem I will feedback!
-
Hi Thom, wherever you are i confirm that it's working now - played for about an hour with a complex model and had no problems!!
Thanks

Ok. It must be the number of dynamically created menus per layer that causes some kind of issue. I'll disable that feature and try to report it as a SU issue/bug.
