      Also, About Centre is toggled by Option (Alt) on the Mac, but that is fine as it is consistent with other tools (Ctrl is used to right click, in case you really feel the need to use a single button mouse).

          The 2 attached files should solve the problems of context menu and of TAB (now trapped on Key up).

            Thanks Fredo6 for this Plugin.
            I've translated it in Italian.

              Marco,

              Thanks very much for this. It will be integrated into the next sub-release.
              As you noticed probably, there are remaining strings in English when using FreeScale. They actually belong to LibFredo6, which can also be translated itself into Italian, if you have time.

              Again, many thanks

              Fredo

                      That appears to be it, Fredo, everything is working.

                      Hopefully that will mean things will be fine on the Mac in the future, but I will look forward to testing whatever you come up with next πŸ˜„

                        I have looked everywhere to get the download of this Plugin but haven't been successful. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

                                Hi, is it a known bug that copies of groups ALL get changed when scaling? Try this:

                                Make a square. Then turn it into a group. Then copy that group a few times. Then just scale on of those. And they all get scaled. Perhaps its already been brought up, but I didnt find anything when I searched for "group" in this thread. Thanks,

                                Chris

                                EDIT: More specifically, I think it only occurs with the 2 tapering tools.

                                  hm.. sounds like it modifies the definition of the groups instead of the instances...

                                    It seems that SU tries to optimize the size of file, and it uses the same entities for Groups, until they are edited. When you copy a group, you can check that in the Entity window, it does tell you that there are several instances. BUT, you don't have the "Make Unique" feature. The workaround I found to make a group unique is simply to open it and close it.

                                    From the Ruby standpoint, there seems to be no way to detect that a group exists in multiple instances.

                                    In SU6, I use make_uniquemethod on Groups in a rather blind way.

                                    In SU7, you get a warning message telling you this method is deprecated, so I thought SU7 would automatically make a group unique as soon as you apply some transformation to its entities. It does not seem to be the case.

                                    Anyway, the bug is easy to fix. It will go to the next version. But I can't remove this bloody Warning messge from the Ruby console!

                                    If anyone knows how to check a Group is in one or several copies in the model, thanks to advise

                                    Fredo
