Weld.rb Not Working
-
Good thought, Tim. I disabled recurve.rb and tried again. No workee. Actually running Weld even exploded arcs that weren't exploded before. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
-
Recurve caused that problem for a couple of other members mentioned in recent threads. Maybe you could download a fresh Weld.rb script and see if that helps?
-
the latest version of Tgi3d 'seemed' to have caused a problem with other bezier plugins the other day
when I disabled it's loader ruby the problems went away, and haven't come back when reloaded...
it seem to have been the order in which I used the tools that caused the problems...
might be worth a try, if you have it...

Recurve messed with some tools with me. Not weld though?
-
I tried disabling recurve but that didn't change anything. I tried disabling TGI3D, too but that didn't change anything. I tried a fresh install of Weld from Smustard but with no success. TIG performed some unknown magic though and all is right with Weld.
-
and now. . .all is right with the weld. . .er . .. world.
-
Weld done
-
all's weld that ends weld. . .
Heck. .. we could go all day with this!

Could a ruby be written that would run through all installed rubies looking for possible sources of conflict?
-
No.
The clashes are almost all so unexpected and subtle it'd be difficult.
Where a script rewrites a base class method it's easy BUT if someone rewrites say progressbar 'that's left dangling' within there own poorly structured code until it breaks a tool using the 'real' progressbar it's hard to prevent...
There are a few - like SketchyPhysics that has an occasional clash with say Mirror.rb because it seems to be doing something to mess with the 'Sketchup::Group' class - I still haven' tracked down to a satisfactory conclusion
There is an informal list of 'bad' scripts than should be avoided and others with recoded parts to avoid problems, but I really can't see how we can automate it - reading through a script to find what it's doing is sometimes difficult as it is, let alone passing the task over to 'code'....
