If you have an old copy of the file that you didn't open after you installed Layers Panel, it would be great if you could PM it to me

Did you try disabling/uninstalling the plugin ?
-
everything was working well (the group names was the only thing) I was working inside a group outliner was open and then i got the bugsplat. I dont normally get bugsplats so its funny.
I didn't uninstall or do anything witht the plugin.did you mean to uninstall it and try opening the files? as I've tried opening themon my Mac (no "Layers {abel" plugin) and still not luck - It happened on my pc
opening .skb and .skp result with Unexpected file format.

I have had the same problem as cmeed. The unexpected file format. Luckily for me I had a backup or I would have lost the file.
Note, I have the plugin TIG: Archiver v2.0 which is a life saver.

Holy sh...
I'll try to reproduce the bug. That's a big problem if it corrupts files...
I'm so sorry, I hope you didn't lose your work.I'll add a warning in the first post.
-
cmeed, can you check if you still have the dump/log files produced by the bugsplat ?
-
I have started again (this time with archiver as cover)

Oh wow, this is truly a nice plugin. I wished that the standard layers toolbar worked this way. Now I want to install in on both my laptop and the desktop machine. This is one of the cleanest plugins I have used. Great work Jiminy. My top 10 now.

I have 4 layers that are in my template. I wanted to get this under a group, so I could turn all the layers off at once. They are xlines, markcenter, workplane and cline. When I try saving a template file, I get unexpected file format and the program closes. On trying to open Sketchup again, I get the failed to open template file. Sketchup open but not with the template file that I saved.
However, when I open the standby template file, saved as a regular file, and then try to save this file as a template with the name I used above, I get the file exist and do you wish to over write the file. So something was saved.
Just trying to keep you abreast.

Thanks Ken, I'll look into that.

Ken, were these 4 layers created before you installed the plugin ? What happen when you create a new file, create the same layers, and try to save it as template ?
If you find a way to reproduce the bug every time, that would be really great ! I could propably debug this -

So I deleted all files associated with this plugin and did a re-install. It now appears to be working. I can save a template file, and re-open and have the four layers still there and in the group I added.
Hope this helps.

I hope you have ever done:
Group - visible
Group - invisible
Should operate in a single clickThank you

What do you mean ? You can already hide/show groups with a single click.

Great ! I'm glad it works now.
But did you have the corrupt template multiple times ? I mean, was it just one time or was it systematic ?EDIT : When you say you had multiple versions installed, was it a beta (layer_panel.rb) and an old alpha version (Layers Panel.rb) ? Otherwise, I don't understand how you can have multiple versions

Okay, I find a way to reproduce the bug in version 0.3 :
- Open blank file
- Open LP's dialog
- Create group
- Save as template
I get "Incorrect format file" each time.
The good news is I don't get this with version 0.3.1 !
So it was probably related to the group names bug. So please update everybody !Thanks a lot Ken for your feedback, it helped me a lot finding the way to reproduce it.
I hope it was the same problem cmeed had, even though he didn't save as template.
