SketchUp and OSX Mavericks....
-
So to recap...
If a webdialog uses a remote url and it uses
allow_actions_from_host(string)
and that 'string' is somehow incorrectly formed, then it is ignored by all OSs which continue to operate correctly with its callbacks - except for Mavericks which always fails !
But with a correctly formed 'string' that is a 'domain' Maverick succeeds too.
Mavericks will fail if the dialog is using a remote url BUT it does not include aallow_actions_from_host(string)
, or of course if it is used and the 'string' is not a proper 'domain'.In the case of SketchThis's dialog that host 'string' [given by the web-developer] included an initial
http://
- making it a 'url' rather than a 'domain', with all OSs it had previously worked OK anyway, but now it failed when used with the new Mavericks...
This 'string' has now been corrected in the SketchThis code, it is now a 'domain' without an initialhttp://
, and it now works correctly with the SketchThis dialog callbacks.In contrast with the SketchUcation's Plugin Store dialog that 'string' was already correctly formed as a 'domain', and therefore it worked on ALL OSs, including Mavericks.
So anyone experiencing issues like this with remote url dialogs Mavericks-only should check that their dialog includes the
allow_actions_from_host(string)
AND that it has a good 'string' that is a 'domain' and not a 'url' [or a typo!]...
This good-practice will also future-proof their code against any IE updates that might replicate the somewhat excessive care that is now taken by Maverick's version of Safari... -
I have experienced a few bugs. I'm not entirely if they are related to Mavericks, but they seem to have appeared after the update.
- My tool palettes ( Layers, Style, Scenes, etc ) don't "stick" together anymore. When I click on them to enlarge, they just dissociate from the others, which is pretty annoying.
- I have experienced a few other visual bugs while using Mission Control (with the gestures) ; palettes don't come back as they should, or just slower performances.

Hi Mariocha,
I think it will. Keyframe Animation reports that error when it can't connect to the server. The web dialog that would connect is probably failing because I didn't implement the
WebDialog.allow_actions_from_host
method. I'll release an update as soon as I have a chance. Perhaps you could test it for me -- I don't have a computer with Mavericks. -
Make sure you pass the method a valid domain-name - NOT the http:// address...
That 'type' error and also typos in a seeming correct domain-name etc caused difficult to track-down issues [with Mavericks only] when included in some other scripts that use that method -
hi, i tried to import a .dwg file to sketch up and this warning appears instantly: "warning, importer not found".
thanks.
I'm running sketch up pro 8 on Mac osx 10.9, and the .dwg file is 2010. -
In my case (SU 8 PRO& Mavericks) I can't import DWG files. A dialog appears saying: Alert, importer not found. Also I noticed that the Palettes don't work as expected. Very sad don't know what to do ?

I will sure be glad to give it a try, Doug.
Your plugin is a must for me.
updt: Received a beta, works just fine.
updt: New version 1.8.4 available on the Regular Polygon website. -
Just for info.
Here there is no problem importing dwg files, on both my computers under Maverick. -

It is indeed pretty annoying. It was a very appreciated feature. Hoping a maintenance update will correct that ! Please ?
updt: My wish for the new year ! -

I'm running into palettes that are no longer "sticky" since upgrading to Mavericks. To be more precise, although the palettes do snap to one another, when expanding one such as the Layers palette, it opens underneath the minimized Styles, Scenes, etc. instead of having those palettes remain connected to the Layers pane. When minimizing them down to their title bars, they can also lose their relative association to other palettes.
ME Too!

2014 Sticky palettes are back !!!
Now how about bringing back thumbnail icon of SkUp files in Finder. Was there up to v8. So practical.
Anyway very happy with v2014. Full congrats to the SU team !
