Sorry for the late reply
The latest version for 2014 seems to work fine on SU2015, but I didn't get around to make it an "official" version yet so it got a bit lost within the thread(posted on 4 aug. 2014).I will try to update the main-post with the latest version tomorrow.

Hi,
Just a side note: to install, create a folder "bimtools" in the Plugins folder, and put the html file in it.where is the html file?
the plugin create bim-tools, so i have to add bimtools, right? -

The easiest way to install is through the Sketchucation Plugin Store (Search on author: "Jan Brouwer"):
http://sketchucation.com/plugin-store-free-downloadYou can also rename the download from bim-tools-0.12.4.zip to bim-tools-0.12.4.rbz.
Then it can be installed thtough: Window --> Preferences --> Extensions
I will use that filetype as the default for the next version... -
New version online! Finally support for imperial units

In my own tests the new 0.13.0 worked on more faces than 0.12.4, so I'm curious...
Thanks for posting the issue! -
Now I Know What Happened
12.4 can work under customized catalogue， 13.0 not
and 13.0, if you have cleaned bim information， you must run SU again， Using File→New could not worked， isn't ?

Thanks! You're probably right, I also had some trouble changing between models without restarting SU a couple of weeks ago, I thought I fixed that. I will check it out!

Okay, I completely uprooted the observers that keep track of the active entities, and it seems much more solid now
Can you give it a try before I upload it into the PluginStore?
Thanks! -
New version 0.13.2 online!
Feels much more solid due to improved observers

Is bim-tools compatible with mac version of sketchup 2015.
I attempted to install using sketchucation plugin store v2.6.1

I believe it used to work on Mac, but have never been able to test it myself.
I will try to borrow a Mac and check it out
The error is related to reading the config file, did you by any chance modify that file?
-
Thank you for the response.
I didn't make any changes to files.
Deleted plugin this morning and reinstalled through sketchucation plugin with similar error message. -

Really? 6 year old version and 15 releases behind ? (Trimble has long stopped supporting v7.x.)
Does BIM-Tools even support v7.1 ?
-
@Jan:
/bim-tools/lib/clsDefaultValues.rb:40Single argument String subscripts are one of the breaking changes from Ruby 1.8 to 2.0.
The workaround is
line[0,1], ie., [position, length] or give a range [0..0]The single argument will definitely not work in SU2013 and earlier, as Ruby 1.8 returns an integer for the character's position in the ASCII character set.

Hmmm I have not been testing on old versions, I'll check it out, maybe it's easily fixed...

Hi Dan, thanks for helping out!
That fixes one error!
SketchUp even seems to drops out here before the strip-string, on requiring the "pathname" module.
I guess that's one of the modules that was missing in the old 1.8 stripped ruby environment.still some more warnings to wade through I see ...

I guess that's one of the modules that was missing in the old 1.8 stripped ruby environment.Yes well it is a Standard Library class (derived from
String, I believe.) And the Standard Ruby Library was not included until SketchUp 2014 (when it was released with Ruby 2.0.0.)Before that, SketchUp was released with only the Core interpreter.
SketchUp 7.1 for Windows users can copy the Ruby 1.8.6-p287 DLL from v8 or v2013, back to the v7 program folder, or get it here at SketchUcation:
ruby-1.8.6-p287-i386-mswin32-dll.zip
(SketchUp 6 & 7 for Windows was released with the ancient Ruby v1.8.0 [initial release] of the Ruby interpreter.)I have packaged the Ruby 1.8.6-p287 Standard Library up for Windows ONLY, as a normal RBZ SketchUp Extension archive. (It installs into a sub-folder as a plugin would.)
It only loads for SketchUp version 8..13 (or 7.x if the DLL is manually upgraded.)
