I'm not having much luck resolving this. I've tried scaling up and inspecting the surface to see if there's anything obviously wrong. It allows Normal Push Pull, but Vector, Joint etc. all fail.

Any ideas as to what might be wrong?

It's a fairly complex surface - a piece of terrain that is a hill with sections cut out of it (I draped a road onto the surface so that counts as a separate surface, for example). The surface I want to extrude is vegetation and I need it locked to the z-axis otherwise the software I intend to import it into won't work properly.

Many thanks

I included a fix in LibFredo6 9.0a

If you post or PM me the model, I can have a look and advise.

Hi Fredo, I can confirm the updated version of LibFredo has solved my issues. Many thanks, and keep up the good work.

Have a problem with one installation of this set of tools on Pro 2019. We have the latest Fredo6Lib. We have installed the latest JointPushPull plugin. The tools appear in the toolbar. But when you select the surface and then the tool, the tool doesn't become active. You remain with the mouse pointer and it doesn't change to the selected JointPushPull tool.

Any idea why this would be happening?

We installed the same setup on another computer and everything is fine. Thoughts?

When SketchUp 2019 was installed, did you right click on the installer and choose Run as administrator?

Feature Request in this Plugin

Hi Fredo is this possible to have an offset of faces with the same material?

I need this for a game.

The windows in the night will be the only face that has an offset. this face will save as a separate file (night mesh).

big thank you

Getting a bugsplat when trying to change the random push pull values. in sketchup 2019 and 18
any solution?

Getting a bugsplat... any solution?

You'd need to provide some useful information to be able to diagnose the problem and find a solution. Share the SKP file and the values you are trying to use.

I don't have any problems with your file in SU2019.

Click on the picture to see it move.

Make sure have the current version installed along with the current version of LibFredo6 and make sure you installed SketchUp correctly. That is, you right clicked on the installer and selected Run as administrator from the context menu.

You never answered my question about proper installation of SketchUp. Did you install SketchUp 2018 and 2019 correctly?

sorry i don't remember that how i had installed.
but give main an hour to reinstall as you said.

You do not need to 'reinstall'.
Login as your normal Windows user-account.
Ensure SketchUp is closed.
Find the SketchUp installer file's exe icon - it's probably in your Downloads folder.
Then select it, right-click > context-menu > "Run as administrator"
When prompted choose "Repair"
Done.

It will not harm your existing set up - just 'repair' it, if that is necessary
