Hi, Fredo Thank you for your create this extension.
I would like to feedback for FreoGuides like this...
when I make a marking guide inside the component and click protect it then I save component and reload it places to the model. The Protection can not protect the guide when I click delete guides (Edit>delete guides). That I think it should protect the guide in components after save as together.Thank you

Not very clear to me. Could you post the model so that I understand.

Bonjour Fredo,
Ce plugin est formidable et d'une utilité primordiale à couplé avec celui de D. Bur "Projections".
Je n'arrive pas à changer la couleur des guides, est-ce un bogue ?!?Ce qui serait utile c'est de pouvoir mettre certain guide dans un groupe ou composant et pouvoir changer la couleur des guides uniquement ceux qui sont dans un groupe ou composant et pouvoir avoir plusieurs couleurs selon l'importance du guide.
Bravo pour tous ses plugins qui simplifient la vie, vos plugins sont incontournables.
Meilleures salutations

Unfortunately, Sketchup does only support a SINGLE color for ALL guides...

Thanks Fredo, Problem solved.
P.S.: pourquoi faire des extensions gratuites qui expirent à une date donnée ?

Precisely, these extensions may become paid in the future... It's a minor inconvenience, since they are free today. Also, a good way to keep the installed base on recent versions of the script.

Before I updated I had the same issue.
I installed the update via the SketchUcation extension. However, I had to close SU and reopen it before the update would work. -

I am experiencing a strange behaviour with the plugin. it appears to make copies of the protected guides every time i use the "delete all guides" command. There are thousands of copies of the Fredoguides in the outliner appear. i'll [ost the file later.
