      hi

      I added the 'Red' banding so you can quickly see that a 'better' icon is available by using 'Make Square',

      I am looking at adding some user preferences that will let you set the band color to any or transparent...

      but first, get 'Set Square' working is quite critical...

      It may be a locale issue, do you use 'en-US' for SU or other...

      if you could run a couple of test's in 'Ruby Console' we can try and work out the issue...
      use 'Select All' >> Copy >> Paste in 'Rudy Console' >> hit 'Enter/Return'

          class  Change
      
          @plist = (ENV["XPC_SERVICE_NAME"]).split('.')[0..-2].join('.')
      
      #----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
      
          def self.vpw
            Sketchup.active_model.active_view.vpwidth
          end
      
      #----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
      
          def self.vph
            Sketchup.active_model.active_view.vpheight
          end

          def self.win_read
      
            %x(defaults  read  #{@plist}      "NSWindow Frame SketchUpDoc")
      
          end

          end
      
      #----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
      
          def self.win_write(arry)
      
            %x(defaults  write  #{@plist}      "NSWindow Frame SketchUpDoc" #{arry})

          end
      
      #----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
      
          def self.su_window
      
            win_read.chomp!.split(' ').map{|e| e.to_i}
      
          end
      
      #----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
      
          def self.main_frame
      
            frame_read.chomp!.gsub(/[\{\}]/, '').split(', ').map{|e| e.to_i}
      
          end
      
      #----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
      
          SUD = win_read.dup.chomp!   if not defined? SUD
      
          SMF = frame_read.dup.chomp! if not defined? SMF
      
          @@revert = false if not defined? SUD
      
      #----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
      type = %x(defaults read com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs DefaultPaperID).chomp!
      p Sketchup.get_locale
      p @plist
      p SUD
      p SMF
      p [vpw, vph]
      p type
      nil
      end
      

      this should return your machines version of this...
      "en-US" "com.sketchup.SketchUp.2015" "189 651 977 526 0 0 1920 1177 " "{{37, 608}, {977, 569}}" [977, 473] "iso-a4"
      and hopefully show me what's going wrong...
      if you can paste that info back here, that a start...

      I'm working on batch mode at the moment as there are issues with versions other than v2015...

        hi john,

        here's the result:

        "en-US"
        "com.sketchup.SketchUp.2015"
        "73 40 1810 1137 0 0 1920 1177 "
        "{{73, 4}, {1810, 1173}}"
        [3620, 2124]
        nil

        ps. I'm on a 15" retina display macbook pro.

          cheers,

          I think I see the issue, SU shows the 'retina' values but system shows 'traditional' sizes...
          in yours this two double...
          "{{73, 4}, {1810, 1173}}"
          [3620, 2124]
          on mine it stays the same...
          "189 651 977 526 0 0 1920 1177 "
          "{{37, 608}, {977, 569}}"
          [977, 473]

          I need to add a check for retina, and will post a test file...

                  if you paste the code block below first, then JcB::SetWindowSize::Change.set_2_square
                  does it 'go' square?
                  then up arrow in 'Ruby Console' >> return
                  does it revert?

                    1. up arrow >> return again
                      the new blank SketchUp window go square;

                    up arrow >> return again
                    the new blank SketchUp window revert its size, but goes to a new position on screen;

                    I kept doing this, results are same: the new blank SketchUp window do go square and revert, but the position on screen is changing.

                      1. I draw something in the new blank SketchUp window, save the file.
                        the "square - revert with different position" circle goes on.

                      2. I close SketchUp, open it again (with and without an existing file), I do 1) and 2), the result is same as 3).

                        1. I pasted the code, hit return
                          ruby console return "True";

                        2. JcB::SetWindowSize::Change.set_2_square, return
                          ruby console return "True";
                          and SketchUp ask me if I want to save my current work;

                        3. I click "yes"
                          ruby console return the following:
                          Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method attribute_dictionary' for nil:NilClass> /Users/zz/Library/Application Support/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/jbb_layers_panel/rb/observers.rb:189:in onContentsModified'

                        if I click "no"
                        ruby console return:
                        Error: #<TypeError: reference to deleted Attribute>
                        /Users/zz/Library/Application Support/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/jbb_layers_panel/rb/observers.rb:203:in each' /Users/zz/Library/Application Support/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/jbb_layers_panel/rb/observers.rb:203:in block in onContentsModified'
                        SketchUp:1:in `call'

                        then the window of my current work is closed, while SketchUp is still running;

                        then I click the SketchUp icon on the Dock, a blank/new SketchUp window pops up, which is square.

                        1. I press up arrow in ruby console then return
                          the new SketchUp window revert to previous size, but a little different with its position on screen.

                          cheers for that comprehensive testing,

                          Is that the latest version of jbb_layers_panel that's causing the errors?

                          for some reason it's observers are being triggered by closing and re-opening the SU window...

                          If you temporarily disable it does this code run without issue?

                          In Preferences, do you have 'new windows' set to 'cascade'?

                          If so does after deselecting that does the top corner still move?

                          I do have a completely different 'new' way of changing the window width, but that also needs more testing...

                            the latest version 1.0.2 and a previous version work same;
                            how to temporarily disable the observers?

                            yes 'new windows' are set to 'cascade', deselecting this solved the window moving problem

                              I was meaning the version of 'layer panels' it's throwing those errors, if you disable it then it's observers shouldn't run...

                              I can turn that on and off in code so I'll add it in...

                              I'd forgotten that dave had that problem on another version...

                                sorry I didn't read your words carefully.

                                I removed jbb_layers_panel, no more error message in ruby console.

                                however the close/open window issue remains:
                                I paste the code and return
                                JcB::SetWindowSize::Change.set_2_square and return
                                SketchUp ask if I want to save my file
                                no matter yes or no the window is closed
                                I manually re-open the window, continue with up arrow return, window transform forward and backward works fine afterwards.

                                  I've been adding a catch for that as well, so it waits for you to save...

                                  got it working for 'Unsaved' just need to add some code for modified ones as well...

                                    here's a test version that hopefully deals with the retina and other v15 issues...

                                    set_square and set_printer should both deal with unsaved models or changes, but you then need to re-select the option...

                                    PM me if you can do any testing and I'll send you a rbz...

                                      however, the batch command doesnt work for me…i get the loading image, but this process continues forever. Where looks your plugin for, example, "*.skp" files?
                                      Else, thanks!

                                      oh, i forget : im on Mac 10.7.5, and use Su13 make

                                        this is down to me not using v2013 anymore, and not having the time to go back in time to fix it...

                                        In batch mode, it should open a 'Finder' window that lets you look anywhere you want, it is best to target small collections, i.e. if I target 'Downloads' it will try process the 206 files without icons and if any are corrupt files it can crash SU, but I have also done folders with 500+ skps that I've created without any issues...

                                        that is probably the issue, the single mode should work for any SU version, and some people can run batch mode in earlier versions, so it hard to figure out the problem...

                                        I'll try to find some time to revisit...

                                            i have to resize the sketchup window size to a square , if i want the thumb nail to be square. otherwise, my thumnails are always with red bands. the square button doesn't work.

                                            also, can you change the red color to white or grey? thanks
