Using su2ldraw

daforum

Hi. I'm trying to use the su2ldraw plugin in Sketchup 7 and have managed to get the plugin working in Sketchup layout and I can choose all the options and write to where my LDraw folder is
but I can't load any parts or models.

In the script it says i need:
ldraw/ numeric.rb
dev/ debug.rb
dev/ corner_vertices.rb

Where can I get these and where do I install them?

Is this right?
Mac HD/...../ Application Support/ GoogleSketchup 7/ Sketchup/ plugins/ ldraw/ numeric.rb
Mac HD/...../ Application Support/ GoogleSketchup 7/ Sketchup/ plugins/ dev/
debug.rb
Mac HD/...../ Application Support/ GoogleSketchup 7/ Sketchup/ plugins/ dev/
corner_vertices.rb

Thank you for any help that can be provided.

Sorry for the frustration (I can imagine). I for instance have no idea of this plugin.

Where did you get su2ldraw? That should be the place to get the needed files and installation directions. Why don't you show the full folder path? No one can tell from what you have there, as there are two folders with that partial path description. It should be "MacHD/Library/Application Support/ etc."

Also I wonder if anyone else has used this plugin. I am curious. I didn't know any plugins worked in LayOut. Are you sure it's Mac-compatible?

I wrote that one. Although it is available several sites, I would nor recommend using any of the current versions.

I posted it up on GitHub for now - let me clean it up some and I'll update here when it's more usable.

It's a relative oldie

Links mention Jim Foltz, but I see nothing on his blog etc... but there is this

perhaps you ought to PM him [@SCF] and/or email the other toolset parts' authors...

It currently seems a very poorly supported concept

Despite the OPs comment, I don't think this plugin has anything to do with LayOut.

More LegO that LayOut

Ha, I forgot about this plugin. Jim, this plugin is where I first "met" you. Probably one of the first ones I downloaded. I completely forgot about it.

That's all.
