Hi TIG.... I am trying to use this image trimmer, but I get nothing... I opened the ruby console and I got some error...
It's failing to make the 'Edges' dat file...
Do you have Java installed and enabled on you PC ?
Do you have .jar files set to open with Java - some compression tools hijack that file-type and stop it working.
These tools rely on tiny .jar files to do some of the complex image processing etc.
If they don't run the file's aren't made and so it breaks...
Report back...

hi TIG!
Thanks for the reply!
I did have issues with the .jar file being opened with winrar. I associated the .jar file type to be opened with java.exe. But, i have no idea if it is working. Is there a way i can test it???

I cant test right now. Its in my work PC. I will try to test tomorrow at work.

Edit :
I have tested it at office now. I downloaded and installed the latest java from their website. Associated .jar files to java.exe, but still nada. I am still getting the error.

I am attaching a screen shot.

Perhaps you missed the widely publicized announcement that as of June 1, web-based services would no longer function in SketchUp versions earlier than SU2014. SketchUp is no longer using the Google-based servers those services point to in the old versions. The solution it to upgrade to at least SU2014.

Bonjour à tous !
Hello every body !

Sorry for my english !

I have trouble with the imageTrimmer

Each step i do :

1- I open a new .skp file
2- I importe a .png image with transparence part of image.
3- I save my .skp file
4- I select my image
5- I run ImageTrimmer plugin
6- I wait ( I see the progress bar ......)
7- Nothing change !

This is the report of the ruby console :

Error; #<Errno;;ENOENT; No such file or directory - D;\Sketchup\Modèles\TrimmedImages\forme4[Edges].dat>

I read some thing like this in the forum but i had already instal and update my java
the .jar is already join with java

Can you help me !
Thanks you !

TIG

Your path to the model contains an accented character 'Modèles'
On PCs accents use to be a definite no-no with earlier SketchUp's Ruby, as it causes failures - the folder/file path is regarded as false.
However, since v2015 the newer Ruby is more robust and often allows accented characters.
I suspect that the code used in this fairly old script is somewhat antiquated and doesn't force the text into UTF-8 encoding...
I'll look to see if it's relatively simple to fix.
If so, then I'll publish an update and post something here...
Give we a little time...

simjoubert

Merci TIG
J'ai modifié "Modèles" en "Modeles" et ça à fonctionner pour un petit PNG.
Je suis en train de tester sur une jolie image d'erable du Japon !
Je posterai les résultats!
Merci encore pour ton super travail !

TIG

I have looked into this and the Ruby side is working fine, however the Java [jar] side is having issues with the encoded paths IF they contain an accented character.
I am trying to see how I sidestep this...

In the meanwhile when using ImageTrimmer ensure that the model SKP has a folder path that does not contain accented characters...
Then it will work...

TIG

Still struggling to get these jar file-paths to work with accents in them !
So for now use a folder-path/file-name that's accent-free !!

TIG

http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=SKMtools
Updated v20160621
Main change is the recently reported issue, where the JAR files associated with ImageTrimmer failed to return a valid file path on some Windows systems, when the folder-path/file-name contained accented characters.
This has now been resolved.
But it's still best to avoid such accents in paths etc...

Thanks TIG

what's wrong i'm doing
Please see the video https://streamable.com/u3u7h
please help!

TIG

This has been explained several times...

It uses several JAR files shipped with the toolset - which are tiny applets which process certain aspects of the image files.
JAR files are a special kind of renamed ZIP file.
By default JAR files should be set to open [i.e. execute] in Java.
Some compression-tools hijack the JAR file-type and open it themselves, as if it were a ZIP file, thereby breaking how the tool works.

To fix it try the following steps...

Open your compression tool, and it will have a settings menu option, ensure that JAR file-type is NOT one of its ticked file-type options.
Save the changes and close the tool.
Also ensure that you have the latest version of Java installed on your PC, and that it is set to open [execute] JAR files.
Retry an ImageTrim and see if the JAR files now work correctly...

i'm very happy to see your quick response
Thank you soooo much!
Problem solved.
paypal is not available in our country is there is any other way to donate developers on sketchucation ?

TIG

I'm afraid that it's pretty much only donations/payment by PayPal.
No worries just have nice thoughts about us instead - that's more that many people do !

Why the png did not convert to geometry. I tried the SKM TOOL image trimmer plugin. I save the file before using it. Then i selected this png image

It just process and nothing happens. May i know the reason why it does not convert to a geometry so that i can modify. Thanks

TIG

Your PNG file is not suitable for processing.
The transparent background is 0% Alpha [==good]
The foreground is 99% Alpha - ==bad, because it must be 100%, as it is the ImageTrimmer tools sees everything with some transparency - so it's assumed to be all background and there's nothing left to process !
Hence the error message at the end.

It's easily fixed.
I opened the PNG in Gimp [other tools like Photoshop will also do the fix].
Flattened the image to remove all Alpha.
Added an Alpha Channel Layer.
Used the magic-wand to select all of the background pixels [now 'white'].
Delete.
Saved the changes.

Imported the PNG as an Image and processed it with ImageTrimmer.
Took a minute or two, because it has a lot of pixels to go through.
I skipped the 'Smoothing' step at the end as it's so finely pixilated...

The updated PNG is attached - but I suggest you try doing the fix yourself.
