FredoScale hangs Sketchup, when used together groups and components, as well as nested groups and components.
For example, one component contains a group 1 and components 1 and 2. Component 2 contains a group 2 and component 3 and 4.
This bug was in the first version of the plugin and it's still not fixed.Could you post a model and tell me more about which tool you use, when it hangs (at selection, while generating the geometry, ...?)
Thanks

Ok. Please, see attachments..

The problem seems to be that we can not have a large and deep hierarchy of objects in outliner.
Try the shared model and see how the model is organized in outliner.

Yes, it's definitely a problem when the Outliner is openand the transformation is interactive and operates on components that exist in several instances (like Stretch).
I think this was already signaled and I don't know too much what can be done about it.Fredo

Jim Foltz / CPhillips [I think
] made a PC tool to roll-up the Outliner if it's open so that the crashing stops - there's also a send_action PC code... See this http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=15782&p=123147&hilit=rollup#p123147 -

This can be a problem. But not exactly in this situation.

hey everyone...i need help n quick!!..i keep having a bug error when i try to bend using this plugin ..the same bug thing happens when i tried using shape bender plugin.. whatever i do..i am unable to bend shapes...i m following the instructions but every time when i m just about to bend the shape .. sketch up closes and i get a bug notification..same thing is happening with shape bender plugin.. can somebody help me plz???...i have an assignment due soon.....HELP!!!
-
When you get an error message, always report it back. Otherwise it's not likley that the developer can track down what the error is.
-
It would help if you could post the model that is causing you trouble, too. Since both plugins work fine for the vast majority of users, it's likely that there's something wrong with the install or with the model.
If you need help quickly, you need to give enough information to let us help you.

i finally figured out the problem ..my podium plugin was the culprit..for some odd reasons it was not letting the other plugins work...podium was also not working...but when i deleted it..everything is working fyne now...wat a relief!!
-
This is still one of the greatest and most complex and feature rich plugins. Thanks Fredo very-very much!
(And considering you could easily be selling this for $ 20-30, even more

Hello everyone
I have just registered after purchasing Sketchup Pro 8.
I do have experience with sketchup having played with the free versions in the past but now I am ready to get serious with this software.
I have seen the video clips on Fredoscale and this is definitely something I need in my work but because I am a complete newbie with installing sketchup tools I wonder if some kind person would post up an idiots guide to downloading and installing Fredoscale for the first time.
I really need a blow by blow breakdown on all the steps and if there is any other software I need to make it simpler.
Thank you for your patienceDavid

Hi David and welcome.
First of all, this is the place you need to install your plugins on Mac:
Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUpThen here is a forum post about how to install more complex plugins (which are generally consist of several files therefore zipped):
http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=35746Also note that in order for FredoScale to work, you need an additional plugin library
LibFredo(linked from his first post) -
David,
I see you are using Mac OS. One thing I find useful is to put the (alias of) the Plugins folder into my sidebar. Then I can drag from the downloads folder to the plugins folder any time. Makes the whole process pretty painless. If the files are zipped, I usually unzip it in the downloads folder and take the files I need from there. Note that when you unzip in Mac it creates a folder, when there are multiple files. You want what is in that folder--not that folder itself.
This is a great plugin. Takes some learning. But save before you use, especially on complex objects.

I used FredoScale - stretching with orientation of scaling box on this model and caused bugsplat. Is it possible to fix the plugin? It's a group that has inside some components. I applied FredoScale on a copy of that group.
EDIT: if I enter the group, it becomes unique and it can be stretched. My suggestion: FredoScale to make it unique group prior editing. Maybe SU tries to update Group's definition and that is why it ends in bugsplat.
