Balustrade with components plugin seems to fail in SU8

TIG

It's a known issue - the problem is that the newly shipped version of Ruby is less forgiving of bad syntax.
So while dosomething (a+b), c used to work it now returns an error as it thinks the first () contains the argument[s] and the trailing ", c" is then 'wrong'...
dosomething a+b, c will work [as long as the first argument can work without its ()]
BUT it's better to put all of a function's arguments inside (...)
so the better version is
dosomething((a+b), c)
Note how there should not be a <space> before the first enclosing (...
Didier has some scripts showing this type of error-message when used in v8.
Some are encrypted and can't be readily edited - however balustrade.rb is in plain-text and I have attached a version where all arguments are now correctly parenthesized [i.e. not just the 'problem' one]...balustrade_components.rb

Thanks for the update TIG, I have been keeping a lookout for any and all fixes to the SU8 problem. I do use this plugin but haven't tried since the update. Now I don't need to worry

I went thru the plugin to see if I could find the problem, however, I darn sure wasn't going to post a correction. Not even close to being that smart.

So thank you TIG

Guys this does not show up at Sketchucation Plugin Store, though it's a great plugin!

Shouldn't it be there?

Best regards,
