        Hi Again,

        Is there any way to get this plugin working for me? As you can see I've got a lot of trees, so it'd be great to avoid doing this manually again in the future.

        Thanks for all your help so far.

        Below is ThomThom's assessment of the issue.

        Does this not work on a Mac the same way than on a PC ??

        As you see in his error report, the plugin is trying to look for the file at:
        /Users/Fraser/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/CompoSpray
        while the plugin itself is located under:
        /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/compoSprayToolbar.rb:14

        OSX has a system Library folder and a User Library folder that looks very similar, and some users end up adding plugins to User Library. And I think Podium installs there.
        And then you can get issues with Sketchup.find_support_file

        The best way to determine the base path of your supporting folders are:
        File.dirname(__FILE__)

        In your case it'd be:
        @path_cs = File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/CompoSpray/"

        However, that won't work in .rbs files.
        In Vertex Tools I made the uncrypted loader, which was a regular .rb file, determine the paths and assign it to constants which the .rbs files could use.

        I've never had any path issues that way, and the plugins can be installed anywhere on the system. (if the user prefers to install in a custom location.)

            Does anyone have a solution for the problem which Pilou posted earlier? I have a 15" HP Laptop running windows 7, with Google Sketchup 8 -

            I'm a Landscape Architecture student, so spraying trees rather than placing them individually would be an absolute godsend. But if I can't get to the bottom of the screen, I can't do much. I've tried using the 'tab' key to get to the 'spray' icon, but it doesn't seem to work (though tabbing over to the 'close' icon does. Arg.

            768 pixels is the maximum height on my monitor.

              Hi,
              I'll release an update soon with settings for low res screen that will set up scrollbars and modal/non modal dialogs. Easy and quick translation files will be supported as well.
              Regards

                Hi Didier,

                Thank you for this plugin.

                I have a question. I have two entries in the Draw menu, Components and Component Spray. But I do not know what I can delete in the plugins folder. Can you help me please.

                  Problem solved!

                  I have found it. It is the compo_spray.rb.

                    Yes compo_spray.rb was an older version. Never have more than one install at a time 😆

                      component spray doesn't allow spraying while editing inside a group..how can i do that...??...i have to copy paste the sprayed components inside the group separately...

                      when you fail at something....you haven't really failed...you've found one way the thing will not work out

                        Hi,
                        @arjunmax09: of course you can spray while editing a group or component: double-click on the group/component, click the compoSpray icon and here you go.

                                Hi Charly,

                                To get this menu, you must select faces PRIOR to click on the icon.
                                Do you still miss this menu when doing that ? 😲

                                  the problem still exists.

                                    Charly,
                                    I don't see any problem here: the face is selected, so the dropdown list contains "selected faces" and "vertices of faces".
                                    Close the dialog box, unselect all, re-launch compoSpray, it should now display the usual dropdown list , right ?

                                      Hi Didier thanks,

                                      I tried it again, now I have understood it.

                                      If in the dialog box the component is selected, but no face is selected, than the pull down menu with the shapes is shown.
                                      If in the dialog box the component is selected and the face is selected than the spray type menu is shown.

                                        Now that I have understood correctly, it excites me to return to the experiment.
