      I recently installed "FollowAndRotate" plugin and now get error msg when opening SketchUp Pro 2015.
      Message appears just after starting SketchUp
      Checked the plugins folder and "inputbox.rb", "FollowAndRotate_cn.rbs", and "FollowAndRotate_en.rbs" are there. The plugin still seems to work ok just wondering why I would be getting msg. Running Win10 (64 bit).

        I suspect that some of those files were not originally encoded as UTF-8 [without BOM] - probably ANSI.
        On earlier Ruby in early SketchUp this was less critical, however, recent SketchUp's Ruby must be passed text from scripts encoded as UTF-8 [without BOM], otherwise it can fail to load and run properly.
        Because some of the files are encrypted [RBS] these can only be fixed by the original author - you should contact them direct.

        The plain RB [if faulty, although I suspect not...] could perhaps be fixed by opening it in Notepad++ and changing its encoding accordingly. Save and restart SketchUp to see if that works...

          Reread this topic, about using the correct [but oddly named] file

            Deleted the "FollowAndRotate_en.rbs" file & no more msg.

            Thanks TIG.
