      It works on a copy of the original group that it has made and offset to one side.
      The third 'error group' [if any] simply highlights these errors and it is overlaid onto the original group...

      However... please note that this particular 'Manifold' tool is a slow old crock and it has long been superseded by some newer better things... so I no longer 'support it'...

      Thomthom's 'SolidInspector' shows where errors occur that are causing non-solidity.
      My newer 'SolidSolver' tries to fix them [affecting the original, but 'undo-able'].
      There are also one or two other tools that try to do this kind of thing too...

      I recommend you get those and retry.

          While this plugin is running, does it get interrupted if my computer goes into standby mode?

            I really don't know. 😕
            BUT there are now several better tools like SolidSolver and SolidInspector anyway 😒

              I have been trying to make use of this plugin. But it does not seem to work . I am getting an error message when i look in console
              here is a copy of the messages i get .

              manifold
              Error: #<TypeError: wrong argument type (expected Sketchup::Entity)>
              C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 8/Plugins/manifold.rb:199:in add_group' C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 8/Plugins/manifold.rb:199:in copy_group'
              C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 8/Plugins/manifold.rb:142:in activate' C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 8/Plugins/manifold.rb:1039:in select_tool'

              (eval):42
              #Sketchup::Model:0xcf41cb0

              Can you look and tell me where the error is ?

                This is a very old Plugin.
                It has issues with all current versions, and v8 which is no longer supported...
                I suggest you try my SolidSolver or thomthom's SolidInspector² ?
