      Ah! Now I reproduce it. If TT_Lib is loading all by itself.

      I had AutoSmooth installed which loaded the core.rb file - then there was no errors.

        Pushed a new version 2.9.6 to BitBucket and the PluginStore. Should take care of the Load Errors and compatibility with PluginStore - for realz this time!

            having trouble installing this, when opening sketchup an error appears that says some of my files are in the windows virtual store. I am the only user on this laptop and have full permissions. I have also been searching for the compatibility button (researched on another thread) and I have been unable to find it/

            I did not install this as a .rbz but switched the file name to .zip, then copied TT-lib folder and TT-lib.rb into the plugins folder. Am I missing something

            please help

              You need FULL administrative privileges for the Plugins folder. Edit those privileges and you'll be able to either move the files from the Virtual Store or reinstall.

              You should just install the .RBZ file instead of converting to ZIP. You should also download and install the Sketchucation Plugin Store.

                After that message there should be an Explorer window opening, which is contains the Virtual Store files. Note the full file path in the address bar. Those files should be in the real Plugins folder.

                  Sorry - new core.rb problem here:

                  Having 'inherited' some large, complex and badly-built SU models, I need a way to clean them up without resorting to a dozen partial solutions. I've been trying to get TT_cleanup to work, but I'm getting the following error when Sketchup starts:

                  Error Loading File /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/Plugins/TT_Lib2/core.rb
                  can't convert nil into StringError Loading File /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/Plugins/TT_Lib2.rb
                  can't convert nil into StringError Loading File /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/Plugins/tt_cleanup/core.rb
                  can't convert nil into StringError Loading File tt_cleanup.rb
                  can't convert nil into String

                  I should maybe mention that my Mac is a PPC G4 (there's a lot of us left!) and I'm using the most recent versions of the plugin and library. I'm beginning to wonder if the hardware may be the problem. It is rather old (without being in any sense rickety). This said, I haven't experienced problems with any other plugins (yet).

                  But I'm sure someone will know better than me...

                    hm.. missing a stacktrace there.

                    Can you try these commands in the Ruby Console:

                    load 'tt_cleanup.rb'

                    load 'tt_cleanup/core.rb'

                    ?

                    See if you get a more detailed error message?

                    Also, what version of TT_Lib and CleanUp do you have installed?

                        Oh, I forgot to come back to this issue. Is it still an issue or have you found a way to resolve it?

                          Hi Thomas. Thanks for getting back to me. I now have a working setup but only on my Mac at work. it's an Intel Mac Mini running 10.5.8 and I'm using SU7, TT_Cleanup 3.2.1 with TT_Lib 2.7.1. I tried 2.7.0, 2.8.3 and 2.9.8 before this and none of them worked. On my home computer, a G4 desktop running 10.4.11, no combination of TT_Cleanup and TT_Lib will work. I've tried them all (many times). Do you have any suggestions? Thanks.

                            Further to my earlier post:

                            1. I now have a working setup on a 10.5.8 partition on my home Mac, using TT_Cleanup 3.2.1 and TT_Lib2 2.7.1 (the same setup as my Mac at work). I haven't tried every possible combination, but 2.9.8 definitely won't work. Having to use a separate partition is obviously not ideal, but it's a workround - a pity all my other stuff is on the main partition (running 10.4.11).

                            2. I now have a working setup on the main partition using Cleanup 2.0.0. which of course requires no TT_Lib. Again not ideal, but it's a workround.

                            It appears that the operating system may be the problem. Is there a way to get the more recent versions of TT_Cleanup and TT_Lib2 to run on OSX 10.4.11? If not, what is the most recent version of TT_Cleanup that will run on 10.4.11 (with or without TT_Lib)?

                            Trouble is, Cleanup3 is such an advance on 2 that I may have to consider upgrading the main partition just to get the benefits!

                              10.4...hmm... been a long time since I used that. I think I have an old G4 Mac Mini somewhere. Though not sure if it's alive.
                              And what's the latest SketchUp version you can run on 10.4? (Guess I should know this.... :s)

                                I knew you'd say that :OD

                                On 10.4 the latest version of Sketchup is 7. Leopard can use 8.

                                  ThomThom , thank you for your great plugins!
                                  I use Sketchup 2014 on Win8.1 and I have problem. I installed your current plugins but error appear. I had simillar problem with other plugins but I resolved this by creating other plugin folder without polish letters. But if moved your plugins to this folder it doesn't work. please help.Thank you.

                                    Right, I would need to poke around in dark corners to see if I can find the hardware to reproduce this. To be honest - I haven't tested my plugins on SU7 for a long time...

                                      Non-english characters should not be a problem in SU2014 any more as we updated the Ruby interpreter to version 2.0 that should handle Unicode.

                                      Can you give me a screenshot of the content of:
                                      C:/Users/Stanisław/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2014/SketchUp/Plugins/TT_Lib2/

                                      There should be a 'libraries' folder containing a 'stage' folder:
                                      2014-03-04_11h27_34.png

                                      Do you find that?

                                      Also what is the content of the 'stage' folder?

                                        I haven't tested my plugins on SU7 for a long time...

                                        I'm giving serious consideration to upgrading my home rig to 10.5.8 (which is as far as it can go). It would have a number of benefits (not the least of which would be the ability to use Cleanup3!). There would also be a few drawbacks, but I suppose these could be alleviated by keeping a 10.4 partition (mainly for for Classic apps - yes, I still use OS9 sometimes). Thank you for looking into this, and if you feel like having a look, please do. But I can manage with version 2 for now.

                                          Hi Thomthom

                                          I really appreciate your great plugins.

                                          since installing the new tt_lib2. I get this error and it is not installed, only when I open the already saved files but when I open sketchup 2014 as a new document is normally installed

                                            Are you using the first release of SketchUp 2014? If so, please update to maintenance release 1.
