          Any suggestions?

          Are you getting " ERROR: Expected ‘)’ @[1] " followed by " No classifier data returned. "?

          For me, usually exploding once does it. The error sometimes comes up when I drag/import a model from a folder or from the component browser, and that model has a dynamic component within it. Exploding the component I just dragged in, surprisingly, doesn't really explode the component like you'd expect it to, because the elements are still grouped in a component... and the error goes away. (I think I remember reading somewhere that the bug has been reported, though I can't find that thread now)

          If you intend to drag and drop dynamic components directly, one way to avoid the error is by right clicking on the dynamic component, and selecting 'save as'. The new file will be drag and drop friendly, but opening it directly will give you a dismantled component...

          This might help

          It links to this...

          Can you send me the model that's giving you the errors?

            Hi Yoni, this is what I get from any of the three DC's whether i drag and drop, insert manually or drag and context click:

            I'll PM you the model. 👍

              Hi Andrew,

              Got your model, though I'm unable to recreate the error. It works fine for me.
              Does this happen only in this model? or in other models as well? When does it first happen?

              I am no expert in JavaScript errors, but I have found this happens to others as well with other dynamic components:

              1. http://forums.sketchup.com/t/error-on-component-options-window-when-downloading-in-window/19991

              From what I understood from the link, is that a possible workaround would be to copy the components and paste in place in another model... work on them there, and paste in place back. Or, I think to make things simpler... copy ALL of your contents into another model and work on it as a new file.
              That work for me sometimes with other unrelated errors that I was never able to fix/figure out... just move to a new location and start fresh. Sometimes I figured out only months later that it was some plugin conflicting somehow... which leads me to...

              1. I really don't know, buy maybe a plugin is conflicting!?
                Try disabling all your plugins and see if the error still pops up. Also, it might be that a conflicting plugin causes the fault to occur, and then the model is toast from there on, no matter what plugin you have now... so it would be harder to track when it happens. Keep your eyes open 😲

              2. Check the ruby console ('window' - 'ruby console') - see if you find any other error messages in there when it happens.

              Hope something here helps you out...

                    Been using FelxWindow 2.0 and Flexdoor on a project I've been working on and the dynamic component work really well.

                    I also appreciate that the author is quick to respond to a question and take suggestions for improvements. I suggest he consider trapezoidal shaped windows, common in residential design as well as different styles of windows such as casement, awning, slider and double hung. Those would really make this a valuable tool.

                      Hi Allen,

                      Glad you're having a good experience with FlexWindow and FlexDoor! 😄
                      The different windows you've suggested are on my list - trapezoidal now added too!

                      As of late, among other things, I've been busy developing a different dynamic component which you may also find useful... I am thinking to call it FlexPanel - For creating sorts of panel combinations... floors... ceilings... (still in the works)

                          Need to try my hand at something like this - my own window dynamic is good for most standard housing, but nowhere near this flexible. Kudos to you sir.

                            Thanks George,
                            Doing my best 😉
                            Let me know how it goes. Any questions, I'll be glad to help.

                            Just to update, I'm working now on some more Flex components and on some useful plugins to accompany them.
                            It will all be called...

                            FlexTools!

                            Soon...
