Assuming you have correctly installed the files/subfolders etc...
Try these extra steps after your Step 4...
Step 4a.
Open Preferences > Extensions... find the entry for the tool and activate it...Step 4b. [if desired]
Activate its toolbar from its View > Toolbar entry...Step 5... After activation the tool becomes available in the main 'Tools' menu under the submenu 'Fredo6 Collection', submenu for this specific tool...

Can't seem to unpack the downloaded zip file into the plug in directory. Get errors in winzip telling me destination directory does not exist. It does for I am looking in it now. I have been able to unzip it onto desktop then I copied it all into the plugin directory but sketchup won't load it for tells me there is a missing file..?
Not sure where to go from here.
Attached a pic of the contents of the zip file I d/l'd:

Apparently, you are missing LibFredo6 library.
Go to the main post of FredoScale and follow the instructions.

You might also need to fix the Properties > Security setting for the Plugins folder to FULL for yourself...
-
Thank you for your excellent work. Much appreciated.
-
Just a question about Radial Bender:
Is there any reason I can't bend more than 180°?
-
Thank you for sharing... -
Amazing work! Thanks so much for this brilliant tool.
-
I've downloaded, extracted and put all the necessary files into the Plugin folder but for some reason cannot see the FredoScale options in Sketchup even when I restart. I've checked the preferences folder, tools panel and still nothing. Someone please help me with this, I am beyond frustrated.

Vicky,
- Working backwards, You should get a listing in "Tool palettes" for a toolbar and under the Tools menu, "Fredo Collection >> Fredoscale".
- You say you checked in Preferences? Is Fredoscale listed (and checked) in the Extensions window?
- You've gone back to the SCF topics for Fredoscale and LibFredo and checked the requirements and specifics of file placement.
- You saw the warning on the Fredoscale topic:
"IMPORTANT: Requires to download LibFredo6 3.6 or higher if not already installed." - Everything seems right to you then probably the next thing is to post a screenshot of your plugin folder where it shows all the required files, and see if someone can see something out of place.

Thanks Fredo6 your a rockstar..
cheers,

FredoScale, and more generally Ruby scripts, have problems to deal with fresh copies of group. Under the hood, these groups share a common definition until they are edited.
So in your case, I would suggest that you
- either use Make Unique feature of FredoScale
- Just double click of the Group A and B instances to make them unique

Bug [pretty sure anyway].
Hi I love this Fredoscale plugin and was going to make a donation but I am getting some buggy results which I hope there is a solution for. Please see attachments.
Some whole components move or don't move instead of scale.
-
I've tried some scaling and everything works as expected. Can you desribe your goal more detailed?

Hi. I have a question. When I twist an object and conferm my sketchup crashes. What could this be?

Are you working on a Group which has been freshly copied?
Fredo
-
Or is the object very tiny ?
Or very large ?? -
What are the dimensions of the original before bending?
-
Lovely plugin.
Another issue: Sometimes when I do a "radial bending by selection of plane" I get some missing faces on the bending side.
PS: I restarted sketchup, and I cannot reproduce this anymore. Perhaps I set something in Fredolib somewhere during an operation.
