      I've deleted every instance I could find ad will try again.
      I installed with the Sketchucation plugin store; searched the plugin store within Sketchup, click autoinstall,

      well, I was doing it as I was typing a blow-by-blow and lo and behold it worked. Don't know what I did differently this time. I've tried at least a dozen times to install it both manually and thru the plugin store. Hmm, dunno. At least its working now.
      thanks for your help!

        Can you specify material thickness with this plugin? Thanks

          I tried following the instructions provided by http://www.pumpkinpirate.info/flattery/
          which did not result in a toolbar. The email address provided does not work either.
          My wife found the answer that works. I could not get along without her!

          Go to the Menu
          Window> Preferences> Extensions>
          Click the Install Extensions... button
          Browse to your downloads folder
          Select the file
          Flattery_v1.0.2.rbz
          Click the Open Button
          Follow the usual "Yes, OK, I Agree" type options.
          Now Flattery is correctly installed and you will have the menu bar you expected.

          I Hope this helps you too!

            Or you could just use the Sketchucation Plugin Store to install it automatically and not have to go through all those steps.

                  As DaveR says, it was fixed sometime ago to work with the newer SketchUp versions [ i.e. >= v2014 ].

                  The original download on the author's website is old, and therefore incompatible with anything > v2013.
                  I do not believe the author is supporting this tool any longer...

                  However, under the terms of the tool's (c) license I updated it in April this year, and so that version of it is available from the PluginStore [but not elsewhere!]...

                      I have installed your Flattery plugin and it is doing a great job unfolding designs. However, when I click on the SVG button, I get the pop up menu to select where to save the file but the svg file type does not appear in the lower box. In fact, no file type appears. Any idea how I can fix this?

                        I assume you have the latest version from the PluginStore, which has some compatibility issues fixed: http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=Flattery

                        The SVG export works fine for me.
                        Have you got a 'Flattery' group?
                        It must be the only thing selected when you activate the Flattery-SVG exporter ?
                        Then you get the export-dialog with a named.svg etc...

                            What I downloaded was only a .php file, not .rbz as normal plug-ins are.
                            Please help.I got 'pluginserv_joomla.php', did I do anything wrong??

                              Evidently you did do something wrong. If you'd followed TIG's link it would have taken you to the Sketchucation Extension Store page for Flattery. When you get there, click the Download button. You might need to sign in first. When you click Download, the RBZ file should download to your computer.

                              Why not install the Sketchucation Extension Store? Then you can let it automatically download and install extensions and help you keep them up to date when they get revised.

                                Yes, this is a helpful tool that aids in keeping extensions/plugins updated after install.
                                The use of plugin Sets is another helpful tool.

                                Thank you SketchUcation team!

                                  I use SU 2017 and Flattery doesn´t work well. I can unwrap but I cannot change edges and add tabs too.

                                  Any idea what I must do wrong?

                                    Sorry if I missed something, V2022 and Flattery appears to be inconsistent. Is there a set process I am missing or some instruction to make sure I am not missing a step?
