[Plugin Library] LibFredo6 - v15.9a - 25 Mar 26

[SunnyGee2017]

@TIG It just freezes. I can still move the mouse, but nothing else works. I have to kill the app with the task manager and restart it. It only happens with Fredo plugins. All others work well.

@SunnyGee2017
Thanks, that might be helpful...
Now up to @fredo6

[fredo6]

@SunnyGee2017
Can also invoke menu Window > LibFredo6 Settings.... > Fredo6 Plugin Information... and copy/paste here the content of the Ruby Console.
This will tell me which version of plugins you have.

I'm sure @fredo6 will have more to say...
but the report your posted shows that although you have the latest versions of the 4 extensions installed,
you don't have the SketchUcation toolset installed - for the ExtensionStore and the required SCFLicensing files.
Without those all licensed extensions will not work.
Download the RBZ for the SketchUcation tools and use the Extension Manager dialog's Install... button.
Restart SketchUp to sync everything.
Now you will have the licensing set up.
You need to validate appropriate licenses for the 4 fredo extensions.
If you already have those use them, or get them from the appropriate page on this forum.
If you haven't already got a license then buy it.
Restart SketchUp after all of this to sync everything...

I have recently upgraded to sketchup 2026 and my laptop to windows 11. Up till today my Fredo^ plugins have been working fine, until today. I have the prepetual licences for all the plugins, and when I want to use them I get a window saying - TRIAL PERIOD EXPIRED etc etc. I have removed all the files from my PC, and reinstalled Fredo^ and all the plugins from my licence profile on Sketchucation. I have restarted sketchup and still receive the same notification. What must i do next please. Can admin assist?

[Dave R]

@GavinG do you have the latest version of the Sketchucation Extension Store installed?

[GavinG]

I think so, I have 3 new icons on my ribbon ( see attached). This is where I get directed when looking for Sketchucation Extension Store

[fredo6]

First, when you have a problem of license, do not try to reinstall. Just check you have the latest versions.

Also, if you get the message of expiration, try first to revalidate the license. It won't count for a new seat.

Does it work in your case?

@fredo6 Is there any place where we can find out what the bug fixes are?

[ntxdave]

I did a quick test on an old Animator file and it looks like we now can use perspective and generate a video.

[GavinG]

@fredo6 - I have tried to uninstall and reinstall, no luck, I have just installed the plugin as indicated below in the next reply, still nothing working. I still get the TRIAL PRERIOD EXPIRED window

[fredo6]

@GavinG
When you get the expiration message, did you try to click on the button 'Manage License' and revalidate the license (using the file you received by email when you purchased the license)?

If you do not have the license file, you can retrieve it and download it at https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php. Just sign in.

Well, I also tried to generate a video with the Animator file that has both perspective and parallel and the generation stopped when it switched from parallel to perspective. So, if the file has all scenes with the camera set the same way (either perspective or parallel) it works fine but having both options in the same file will not generate the video.

Just thought I would pass this along but maybe you already knew that.
