      think it was resolved by removing everything and reinstalling the whole set from scratch...].
      Are you sure you have all of the rb's and png's in the right folders ?

      Hi TIG, just for info, I still have the extra button, unless I close the toolbar and reopen after a SU restart, each time.

      it's there even when TIGTools folder + rubies are the only items added to fresh instal of SU

      doesn't hurt anything..

        This extra button is a mystery as it only affects a few Mac users ???
        Any Mac-users got any ideas ???

          TIG,

          This tool set has been a blessing. Have followed it closely since you first posted them as individual plugins. Must say it's a tremendous example scripting prowess that have moved the goal posts in terms of SU capabilities. Congrats!

          Do you think it us possible to implement a coloured highlight feature which indicates rail selection from profile selection? Along the lines of Whaats SDS Crease tool. It would mimic what's seen in each icon. It's not really an issue more a graphical aid.

            TIG, in addition to your toolbar showing a blank button, I also get a blank button on my Mac with Jim Folz's MakeOrthoViews.rb I have no idea what causes it though. Maybe if you look at Jim's script it will give you a clue?

            Edit - just realised Jim's script is encrypted!

              Thanks for the praise 😳
              It would be possible to color profiles and rails differently rather than select them with the normal highlighting - but what colors would you like ? I could get it to trace over them with the 'draw' command while the tool is active with any standard colors you like ? I tend to avoid RGB as they are axial how about profile=cyan, rail1=magenta, rail2=dark_cyan and profile2=dark_magenta - it'll vary across tools as some have different selection needs etc - also the last item picked doesn't always highlight well - but that's the challenge ! 🤓

                Thanks for the reply. I think your suggestion of colours is the way to go. And will compliment the tool quite well. I see how it can't be applied to certain tools but still think it'll be well received

                  Here's another update http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=217663#p217663
                  The picked curves/faces etc are now highlighted and 'color-coded' [this depends on the tool***]
                  Typically they are:

                  Profile[Face] =Cyan
                  Rail/Rail1 = Magenta
                  Rail2 = DarkVioletRed
                  MeldingProfile[Face] = DarkCyan
                  OtherFace = Orange
                  ***See each Tools notes...

                            Is there a way to organize plugins into sub-menus?

                              A bit off topic, but yes.
                              See 'organizer' available on Smustard and also my earlier ideas drifting around where you could create your sub-menus in an early loading ruby [#.rb] and add your scripts to any one by giving them one of its global variables e.g. $submenu1 for the menu rather than "Plugins"...
                              I use it to group my plugins as

                              Construction[Guide] Tools
                              2D Tools
                              3D Shape Tools - Simple
                              3D Shape Tools - Complex
                              2D Manipulation Tools
                              3D Manipulation Tools
                              Camera/Image Tools
                              Text/Dims Tools
                              Terrain Tools
                              Other Tools
                              $submenu0 to $submenu9...
