        The briefest search of the PluginStore... https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=LibFredo6
        I'd expect some backwards compatibility - but you alone can test it 😉

          V7.7 has been published.

          In Su2016, you have to go to the LibFredo6 Default Parameters and

          • Check "Enable High-res screen support"
          • Enter the scale factor of your screen (say 2)

          LibFredo6 77 - Support Param HiRes.png

          The 3rd parameter deals with the thickness of lines drawn in the viewport. By default they are thickened in hi-res. But if this is too much, just disable this option.

            Strange. Apparently nobody reported that the support of hi-res screens with LibFredo6 7.7 does work or does not work!

                Peter,

                Thank you for this feedback.

                One question I have is about the thickness of lines drawn in the viewport (red and green for RoundCorner). On hi-res screen, I also increase the width of these lines (there is a flag in Default Parameters to disable the feature). Is it necessary?

                Thanks

                Freo

                  I do not have a high resolution screen however I am getting a frequent bugsplat with Thru Paint which I don't know if is related to this issue, but has only started happening a couple of weeks ago. When I activate the Thru Paint tool, the tool tip briefly changes to the SU native bucket tool then SU crashes. I have tested it on my start up template which has very few materials in it. The tool tip still changes briefly to the bucket but does not crash, it only crashes with models that have a lot more textures. I have tried activating the tool by shortcut keys, the toolbar and the Fredo tools menu and it happens with all of them....?

                    This is not related at all to the question of hi-res screen.
                    Actually, I detected myself this bugsplat situation long time ago, and was surprised that no user did signal it.

                    In the latest version of FredoTools, I have made some changes and no longer have the bugsplat. But since this is a random problem coming from the timing between observers, it may happen or not depending on the environment.

                    So, do you have the problem with the latest FredoTools?

                    Fredo

                    PS: the issue with Thrupaint is that when you open the paint bucket dialog box, Sketchup automatically switches to the native Paint tool. So in ThruPaint, I have to switch back to ThruPaint tool. The problem is in the switching and tool observer.

                      I thought I had the latest version but it was the Libaray I had updated. Just updated Fredo Tools and it all seems to work well again now.
                      Thank you very much, very useful tool.

                        Unfortunately the problem is still occurring, even after the update...

                                Can you share .skp file so we can see what you've got?

                                How did you get a Google Earth terrain map into SketchUp?
