      Weeelll.... that's embarrassing. It turns out that the blank window is due to a bug. Where I previously tried to fix unicode issues. Not sure how I never noticed that before. But it doesn't even load on my machine. It's a quick fix though - hang on.

            Hi Thomthom. I've got the same problem with Coulteri. With the new version dialogue still remains the same.

            If you don't ask, the answer will always be no.

              Hi Thomthom. I've got the same problem with Coulteri. With the new version dialogue still remains the same.

              Can you open the Ruby Console and enter these lines, one by one and then post back the result?

              
              filepath = File.join(TT;;Plugins;;SelectionToys;;PATH, 'webdialog/ui_manager.html')
              
              p File.exist?(filepath)
              
              p filepath
              
              p filepath.bytes

                          If you right click on the blank window, do you get the option to View source?

                          (and if you open Ruby Console before opening the window, any output there?)

                            Sorry for the late response. I just figured I'll do the upgrade to 2017 seeing some of the new tweaks made to it. Selection Toys works like a charm now. Thanks Thom.

                              Great tool! Is there a way to use the select faces by area for multiple selection of faces? So instead of individually selecting a face, I would like to select multiple faces and it would loop through each face and perform a selection of faces by area for each.

                              What I'm trying to accomplish is selecting multiples of the same balcony on a building. Unfortunately, the building model was not built with components in mind and it is all in one layer. The idea is that I would select 1 balcony of the building (which is made out of several faces) and use the select faces by area to loop through each face and select the other balconies on the building.

                                Can a selection be expanded by type?
                                It's more intuitive to select 1 item type, for example text, images, dimensions, section planes, etc; and expand the selection.
                                Instead of the reverse, where you select all items and then filter it out.

                                  @ludnid: what is your user path? I'm still confused by the byte array shows a different path than the error message...

                                  C:/Users/Ludnid/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/

                                  If you don't ask, the answer will always be no.

                                      I can't seem to be able to customise the UI. In the UI Settings, under Tools, the UI settings has a little lock icon beside it.

                                      Any ideas?

                                        The intended UI cutomization is done by selecting or deselecting entries in the sections below that line. You can select what entires appear in the Context menu and toolbar. I don't believe Thom Thom intends for you to make settings in that area.

                                          Hmmm that's a pity. I wanted to have a bunch of them with keyboard shortcuts, but i guess that's not an option considering they don't show up in the shortcuts menu in preferences.

                                            They'll show up in the Keyboard shortcuts if you have something selected so they'd show in the Context menu just like adding keyboard shortcuts for other Context menu items. Filter for Select Only.
