          Sorry SU-Friends

          Lately, I have inquiries from Russia, China, Romania, Germany and the USA.
          The tools are popular, but unfortunately, my tools work it not in the 2014 version.
          These tools are a hobby of mine, but for now, I just do not have time to adjust it.
          As a field ornithologist, I was just elected in the Presidium of a Ornithological Society.
          I must me now also for other birds take care πŸ˜† .......

          Well, maybe someone can give me a tip on what to do.
          The whole thing bury? Want the tools adapt?
          Want the Tools adapt and under your name provide in the net?

          Although, I have no list of requests or tasks, but I would have still a few ideas or changes for the improvement of the tools. Ask?
          Tweeting it right here in my ear, I understand them, I'm ornithologist....

            Your RB files are in ANSI, not UTF-8 encoding - this is necessary for them to be compatible with Ruby2.0 used by v2014 - it remains OK with earlier versions too.
            This is easily fixed in Notepad++...
            There are also some syntax issues like a space between methods and their parenthesized arguments [e.g. the webdialog new code...]
            I will PM'd you a working set shortly - you need to re-publish it...

            Get and use Notepad++.exe [free] for script editing and making new files in "UTF8-without-BOM" encoding in the future...

                  TIG: Super, thank you very much! I have received the message.
                  But I cannot reply and I can not download the file. Why is that? I'm a member?
                  Well, I did make the Notepad+ UT-8 conversion and moved my plugins in the folder "Tools",
                  but when calling "web dialog" it goes no further.
                  I thought it is a solvable problem.

                  Sensational TIG, if you've solved it.
                  What do we do now?
                  Can you send it to cad(at)cadbox.ch ?

                  Addendum:
                  Sorry for my terrible programming, but I'm an old german speaking self-taught.
                  The number of files:
                  At the beginning I wanted sell individual elements and thought to become a millionaire.
                  Today I'm glad for a answer to my questions.

                      I never thought that my confusing scripts can be adapted so quickly.
                      May I you mention, as a co-author from CBS 2014?
                      It would me an honor...

                          Thank you again.

                          Well, somehow, somewhere, I'll mention you -
                          as a contributor or as an advisor and I think,
                          I will be responsible for everthing, also for a smallest error...

                            I do have some ideas of improvement, user-interface and models, too. I really think this tool could be more friendly and more configurable, but my programming skills in Ruby are up to now, well - nil. So I would gladly jump into the development team with User Interface improvements and some functionality ideas. It was my intent some month ago (and still is if nobody wants), to fork the scripts and learn myself to program in Ruby. But I think things woulb be MUCH more better with somebody else on the scripting task πŸ˜„

                              Only too, I am pleased!
                              The scripts are without encoding and free to better change.

                              But I say: Many cooks find faster the hair in the soup.
                              A hair there is always - in the soup and just unfortunately not on my head.....

                                    I'm Skecthup beginner. Could you please help me with CBS on SU2013. It's not working on my MacOS 10.9.3.
                                    The error message that I get is the following:

                                    Error Loading File cadbox-ch.rb
                                    no such file to load -- CBStool/lang/en.rb

                                    How can I fix that?

                                      How did you install this toolset ?

                                      The downloaded RBZ's contents [including the missing file[s]] will install properly into the Plugins folder by using Preferences > Extensions > Install.... button.

                                      If you have got the ZIP version, then you must extract its contents properly - keeping all of the files in their subfolders intact, and transfer that into the set into the Plugins folder manually.

                                      If you have mis-installed things [as I guess is the case πŸ˜• ], you must remove ALL of the files you have incorrectly put into the Plugins folder, and start again... AutoInstalling the RBZ is the proper [and foolproof] way !
                                      πŸ˜’

                                        I deleted CBStool folder and cadbox-ch.rb from Applications Suuport-Sketchup 2013-Plugins.
                                        Opened SU2013, Preferences-Extensions-Install Extension -> CBStool2014.rbz

                                          Did you look in the indicated folder in the Plugins directory to see if en.rb is in there? I just tried installing it and it worked fine for me. Maybe you could try contacting the author directly through his website?

                                            I go equal on an outdoor camping tour πŸ˜† and can only answer briefly.
                                            Your problem I am very sorry.
                                            I have Win7 and SU14 and it works very well.
                                            Unfortunately, I can not make a test (on a Mac with SU13).
                                            I ask once in the round: Does anyone have a Mac with SU13 and it works?
