[Plugin] 3D Text Editor

Ben Ritter

Thomthom, a very appreciative thank you.

Thomas, I played with it a little more on my Mac and the only thing I can find is the close button doesn't do anything. No biggie for me. I'm flexible and can close it with the X button at the top left.

hm... that's odd. Anything in the Ruby Console?

like if I made a commercial plugin where a significant amount of users has older systems.

Seems another friendly systems than IE exist for old computers or it's the same?

I'll check when I get back on my Mac later this morning.

I'm bummed I can't use it on my PC but I understand why.

XP still.

I'm planning to build a new machine this spring and will move up but so far XP hasn't been a problem for me.

And XP is IE8 only or something?

Dave R

At least not IE9. I haven't opened IE for several years so it hasn't been kept up to date even as far as it would go in XP.

I think it's worth and doable to keep compatibility with XP's last browser (only functionality-wise, of course not necessarily CSS and other extras).

thomthom

Well, it might work functionally in IE8... I haven't tried - because I don't have the time.
The Requirements I posted for this plugin was the minimum I tested against.

Dave R

Could be Aerillius.

Thomas, I just tried again on my Mac and this time the Close button worked. I don't know why it didn't yesterday. Is there any possibility of some sort of time out? It was a number of hours after I initially tried the plugin and reported it worked before I got back to it again. I had left SketchUp and your plugin open all that time.

I'll watch it and see what I see.

Do you want the dump to the console anyway?

As for the XP thing, don't go to any trouble for me at least. I can manage for as often as I need 3D text.

thomthom

There is an issue with WebDialogs under OSX where the window needs to get focus before any actions will respond. So if it hadn't the focus, and you clicked inside the window - the first click should have given focus to the window where the second click would have worked.

That's all I can guess. There is no timeout.

About the console - did you get errors?

Dave R

I did click in the dialog box several times while trying to close it but maybe it still out of focus.

Here's the entire dump.
