Pointing at sequence hides Animator tools; bug?

DaBouncer

Hi,

I'm experiencing a strange behavior in Animator 2.3c.

When I point at sequence some of the tools are hidden and sometimes all of them disappears completely; then if I try to "restart" Animator by clicking any of the icons in the toolbar, Windows throws a warning sound; I have to quit Sketchup and once closed the "Exit temporary to Sketchup" windows appears...

Rgds,

Petter

I think there is an error.

Would you mind opening the Ruby Console before you click on the icons and report what you see there (just copy the text and paste it in your post).

Thanks

Thanks Fredo, I get this:

This is fixed normally with LibFredo6 8.6p.

Thanks to advise

That sorted it, thanx!

Superb extension for Sketchup, keep up the good work ('',)

Seems I pulled the trigger a bit to fast on this one; the issue remains with LibFredo6 8.6p

Note the status in the bottom left of this image; could that be relevant here?

Same thing. Could you open the Ruby Console.

Would be helpful that I get your model too.

The issue does not happen all the time so I have not been able to capture anything in Ruby Console yet. I've sendt the two files I'm currently working on in a PM.

So this has happened a few times after first rendering a sequence and changing view to render another:

Same as before; when I quit Sketchup the "Exit temporary to Sketchup" window have been hiding in the background.
