There's an updated version of the HolePunch tool available that avoids this clash...

Chris, I can hardly keep up with your wonderful scripts. Most importantly though, you are very much appreciated for your kindness to the SU community.

Very well said.

Excellent plugin.

Hi Jonathan (and welcome),

Did you watch the video in the first post, It pretty much explains everything.

jrtaylor6

You mustn't have installed the files properly...
It's a zip file... you must extract the files/folders from it into your ../Plugins/ folder... Please reread the instructions for the script installation and report back...

PS: I see you are a MAC user...
Type this into Window > Ruby Console
Sketchup.find_support_file('Plugins')
it shows where you should install your Plugins...
it IS easier on a PC as there is only one option...

jrtaylor6

Yes it was easier on PC so i switch to that.. I extracted all the files to the plugin file, and I got an error. This is what it said Error Loading File clf_shape_bender_loader.rb
no such file to load -- progressbar.rb

Dave R

So install progressbar.rb as indicated in the 6th line of the original post.

And, for future reference, it is worthwhile reading all of the original post in an thread before downloading plugins. They usually full of useful information.

TIG

IF you report the original error message in the first place we could help you more promptly
Please read the tool's instructions, follow them and then report errors after that [if any]

jrtaylor6

Im sorry man Im just new to sketchup and Im trying to figure everything out..

Dave R

So did installing progressbar.rb fix your problem?

TIG

Please report if the suggested fix resolves your issue...
Without feedback we are unsure if what we suggest works.........
