      Im not exactly the best person to help you as ive got a Windows PC and not a Mac. but i suggest try re-downloading sketchyphysics and see if that sorts it out. if not then sorry i cant help.

      If you can read this, thank a teacher.
      If you can read this in english, thank a soldier.

        I've only seen 1 youtube video of sketchyphysics on a mac. I tried what you said before I asked the question! I hope my computer is not 🤢

          I did the port of SP for the Mac and I have not attempted to do a build for PowerPC. The libraries can not be built as universal binaries since RUBY doesn't know how to deal with those so I would have to build a single architecture file. I'm starting to get back in to SP with Chris's return and Sketchy Behaviors on the horizon. I'll see if PowerPC is practical.

                I've got some universal ruby code. Here it is:

                Abaddon:ruby-1.9.1-p0 justin$ export CFLAGS="-O3 -g -isysroot
                /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5u.sdk -arch i386 -arch ppc
                -mmacosx-version-min=10.4"
                Abaddon:ruby-1.9.1-p0 justin$ export LDFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch ppc"
                Abaddon:ruby-1.9.1-p0 justin$ ./configure --prefix=~/bleed

                😎 😄

                  There is no VLK_LOPTION in JointTool.rb! And also getKeyState (the method on lines 85 and 416) is for Windows!!!! ❓ if(getKeyState(VK_LOPTION) && ( ent.class==Sketchup::Group || ent.class==Sketchup::ComponentInstance) ) puts "potentialParent "+ent.to_s @potentialParent=ent else
