      Please, make sure you update your SU installation to the latest build. This was introduced during one of the SU 8 maintenance releases. You apparently have an older version.

        I believe the option was introduced with the second maintenance release. There have been three more since.

        Didn't you get at least one notification that there is a new version of SU8?

          It was added in M2 - hence the requirement listing SU8M2.

          Firewalls might block the update notifications. Our office does this. All though, when the firewall was more relaxed, I noticed that most uses just clicked away the notification. Messagebox-blindness.

            Thank you guys. Apparently my "check for updates" option in preferences was unchecked.

            And till now i have been using sketchup without ever facing issues so never realized updates have come.

            Thank you ThomThom, I finally managed to get your shell plugin working, it's been really useful.
            I'm glad to have joined this community, has already helped me a lot with my modelling work.
            Looking forward to give some input from my side too πŸ˜„

            On a side note, I'm experiencing issues with sketchup becoming a little slower, i mean its lagging a little after the update, any input on this guys?

              Could be that you have run into issues with messed up toolbar registry items. Are you comfortable navigating the registry?

                Actually, I have no idea how to edit anything regarding the registry. But then I'm a fast learner.

                Anyways the issue seems to have gone now after i restarted my laptop.

                    The Ruby Console is under the Window menu.

                      WOW!
                      I just installed your installer and I can now load all the .rb scripts that I couldn't before. I'm new to Sketchup and the ruby script thing was crazy - can't load .rb files - now I can.

                      Wonderful, thanks so much!

                            Hi Dima,

                            Have you got the latest version of SketchUp 8? This feature was introduced in Maintenance release 2 only.

                                  Because you need SketchUp 8M2 or newer. πŸ˜’

                                          In that case, simply change the *rbz extension to *.zip, open the archive and copy the content into the plugins folder of your SketchUp application.
