      I think we have established that ttVertex works, apart for the solids inspector error
      I am ready to do as you recommend

      thought it would maybe spare us some time if first I test with all extensions except ttVertex disabled in the preferences window:
      ScreenHunter_33 Oct. 10 13.45.jpg
      ScreenHunter_34 Oct. 10 13.46.jpg
      ScreenHunter_35 Oct. 10 13.46.jpg

      didn't do much good, quite the contrary 😠
      so I will proceed
      but while I start doing what you ask, maybe you can inspect if at first sight there might be a conflict that has been exposed:

        Not all plugins can be enabled/disabled via the Extension list.

        Not sure about that error. I'm unfamiliar with that is prefixed with "lss"... But this doesn't mean immediately there's a conflict with that. Maybe something it required was deactivated. This is why to be sure one need to do one by one - I'm afraid.

        Just to be 100% sure I've understood correctly: Vertex Tools loads with no issues when it's installed by itself?

            That was mighty kind of you! Now let us hope we can pin down the source of your issue. I'll feel really bad if I cannot help. 😕

            Btw, are you going to Basecamp?

                a suggestion for a plugin or for sketchup?
                would make debugging fast and easy

                  I think Dana was working on a Plugin Manager... ...I'll poke him and query the status.

                    Whoa! After a remote session (thanks to Teamviewer) I found the culprit! It was organizer which doesn't just modify the menus etc, it even loads the files it iterates - causing Vertex Tools' loader.rb to be loaded before tt_vertex.rb - because it made the assumption that nothing other than tt_vertex.rb would be loading it. 😒

                              It does say in the description of Organizer that sub-folders in the plugins folder needs to be excluded (because it assumes all sub-folders otherwise belongs to Smustard... 😕 )

                              But I had no idea how that plugin worked. I was just somewhat aware it did something with the menus. So now I've been debugging, with my user who's also had to deal with this, for the last three days. I don't like the invasive behaviour of Organizer.

                                There is also a mechanism for developers to easily exclude their subfolders so Organizer will not try to load the contents of those folders. This should result in a smoother experience for users, who won't have to contend with manually maintaining the excluded folders list in the SmustardOrganizerExcludeFolders.txt file.

                                To do this: in your subfolder, create an empty text file called "exclude.txt" - that's it!
                                I too don't like the way that 'other developers' [AKA most of us] are expected to avoid their sledgehammer.
                                There are many tools that have subfolders of other files that don't auto-load...
                                They never should be auto-loaded anyway !? Surely that must be up to loader-scripts or extension-loaders to decide... Why has RickW made it this way at all ?
                                Have you messaged him ??
                                Another candidate for the 'Quarantine Badge' 😒

                                  Yea - as it is now it by-passes the Extension mechanism of Plugins. Unless they exclude themselves. Which is really not something he should expect a developer to do. It shouldn't be an opt-out system. How on earth is a developer expected to know about the behaviour of another plugin like that?

                                  I've not contacted him, no. I exhausted my computer time today debugging this.

                                    I'm puzzled why he made the Plugins folderstructure into the hierarchy of the custom menus... o_O

                                      Hi All!

                                      Sorry for posting this without first combing through the preceding pages. My anti-virus (Kaspersky) is going crazy over the tt_api.so file thinking it's malware. Anyone else encountering this? Didn't seem to bother anything up until just recently. Puzzling.....

                                      Thoughts?! Thanks in advance!

                                        Yes, there's been a few reports. Tell Kaspersky to leave the file alone. (And please also make a report to Kaspersky about the false negative. Some other users has already reported it, but maybe they bump up the priority if more people complain.)

                                          maybe someone knows a way to disable the quarantine for one specific file inside Kapersky?
                                          I didn't know the way to do that,
                                          so took the radical decision to dump Kapersky
                                          installed ZoneAlarm instead.

                                            Hi All,
                                            I'm fairly new to Sketchup, and am trying to install the Cleanup plugin - I have a current model that's massive and therefore causing problems in rendering plugins such as Lumenrt or Maxwell Render -
                                            Could someone please walk me thru the install of the Cleanup plugin for Mac?
                                            Any help would be appreciated - Thanks.
