[Plugin][$] 3D Tree Maker - New version 1.10.14

TIG

Check that everyone has FULL permissions to your Plugins folder [and that it trickles down to all subfolders/files etc...]
If you have a 'CREATOR OWNER' listed under Security try to remove it...
Use the 'Advanced...' options to Edit that...
Add yourself [or your 'group'] as the Owner.
The only three entries you need are SYSTEM, users-group and admins-group - and perhaps yourself - BUT you should be in the other two groups anyway!
You don't really need CREATOR OWNER or Trusted Installer...
Have the inherit properties check-box unchecked!

That combined with running it as administrator might alleviate these issues...

Krisidious

Ok, I deleted Creator Owner and hit all of the permissions again.

ran as administrator... same thing.

Do you have the same settings also for "Users"? If not, do the same for that.

Krisidious

yes... have it at the same.

Alan Fraser

That looks similar to my Plugins properties...except I have "CREATOR OWNER" on top of SYSTEM; and "Administrators(Alan-PC/Administrators)" underneath it.

TIG

Remove 'Trusted Installer'.
The 'CREATOR OWNER' is optional - but if it inherits permissions from its container, then it might screw up things...
Use the minimum number of 'users/groups' that you can get away with...
Ensure that they ALL have FULL permissions.
Do no 'inherit' any permissions...

Krisidious

Done... Still problem persists...

TIG

What's under the 'Owner' tab ?

Krisidious

TIG

Then you are screwed
I'm out of ideas...

Krisidious

Krisidious

Krisidious

Yes!

It's a conflict.

Removing all plugins from the plugins folder and it works.

Now how can I figure out which one it is...

Box

Do the old half half trick, add half of them back, if they work try the other half, when you get a half that doesn't work halve it and repeat until you have the one precious.

Krisidious

I have something running that none of you do... and David does.

David? What do you draw?

Krisidious

extensions.rb...

As a 'health-check' can I suggest that anyone who thinks they have a mess up looks in their ../Plugins folder for the following .rb files that ought to appear only in their ../Tools folder.
If they are in the wrong folder move them [back] into ../Tools; if they are duplicated then remove the Plugins folder's version.
Depending on your SUp version, and what optional tools you might have, you could have these .rb files...
Which should be in ../Tools if you have them at all...
The bold ones are the base-set for most setups and have been around for several versions...
advancedcameratools
date
**dynamiccomponents**
**extensions**
filmandstage
**langhandler**
make_pano_pm
rational
**sandboxtools**
shadowstringsfix
**sketchup**
SolarNorth
webtextures
Several of these have matching subfolders - e.g. 'Sandbox' within ../Tools too...
If you are in any doubt ask.
Don't delete any duplicated files you find but rather move them into a [new name='disabled'] subfolder so they don't auto-load - then you can always restore them when you've gone wrong

TIG

Note that with the advent of v2013 the files:
su_advancedcameratools.rb su_dynamiccomponents.rb su_sandbox.rb su_webtextures.rb
and their matching-named folders should now be in the 'Plugin' folder.
As installed by SketchUp 2013's installer
These files replace the earlier SketchUp version's similar files [named without the 'su_' prefix] which belonged in the 'Tools' folder [<=v8], BUT which sometimes got misplaced in the Plugins folder...

The other 'system' .rb files still reside in the 'Tools' folder in v2013 as before [i.e. sketchup.rb, extensions.rb and langhandler.rb].
