Can you check the version of Animator you have in your enviroment.

The best is to invoke the menu Window > LibFredo6 Settngs > Fredo6 Plugin information for Sketchucation Support.

Hi,

I cannot install the latest libredo6 15.0a on my new computer.
I have tried to reinstall the plugin + Sketchup many times. It keeps giving me the same results.

Do you have a Windows computername with non-roman characters?

[kngpw]

@fredo6
I do! I only change the real Windows computername posting here for privacy reason.

Non-ASCII characters in a computer-name is against Windows requirements and can break things like licensing !

Excelente, funciona de maravilla

Good evening, I recently upgraded to SKP 2025 and have migrated all the plugins; I am trying to use them but while they are on the ribbon, they do not open or function; I have licences for them; please assist

[fredo6]

Could you open the Ruby Console before launching the tools, in order to track possible errors.

[GavinG]

Good day, I have upgraded to SKP 25 and migrated the plugins; as indicated I also downloaded the bugfix, but am struggling to get the plugins to function at all. I keep getting warning messages and while the window loads for the function, it doesn't work.
I use predominantly Curviloft / Joint push pull / FredoCorner

@GavinG

When you say you 'migrated' the plugins, did you install them from scratch using the ExtensionStore³ dialog, or from RBZs downloaded from the PluginStore ?
What are the 'warning messages' ? Knowing these would be most helpful...

PS: Don't give your email address in a public forum, some spam-bot may have already scraped it up. I've obfuscated it a bit, but you might want to do it yourself.
Conversations through forum posts are the most effective, Chats [PMs] can be used if you are providing confidential stuff, emails are a last resort - for licensing problems etc...

[fredo6]

@GavinG

It would be good that you show the warning messages.

Anyway, could you invoke the menu Window > LibFredo6 Settings... > Fredo6 Plugins information for Sketchucation Support.

This will list my plugins installed and their status. Just copy / paste the text and post it here.

IMPORTANT: from now on, LibFredo6 and all my plugins are ONLY maintained for SU2017 and above. If you run a legacy version of Sketchup (up to SU2016), you can find the frozen legacy versions of LibFredo6 and my plugins here.

The information on LibFredo6 is maintained on the Plugin Home Page of LibFredo6. This is also where you can download the RBZ file.

• Sketchup version: SU2017 and above (for Mac M1, SU2021 and above)
• Platform: Windows and Mac OSX
• Usage: Free

If you land on this page and are unfamiliar with how to install Sketchup Extensions such as LibFredo6 or how to register on Sketchucation, please watch this video:

LibFredo6 is a shared plugin library used by most of my plugins. LibFredo6 takes care, among others, of enriching my plugins with a few capabilities such as default parameters, language translation, Check Plugins for Update, Trace logging, etc.

It is NOT a standalone plugin. It must be installed once and updated as needed when new versions are published.

I have Sketchup 2025 and the plugin cannot be installed whatever I do.
