      [Success] How to purchase and activate the Animator SCF License in SketchUp Make 2017

      Hi everyone,

      I just wanted to share a quick guide for anyone still using SketchUp Make 2017. I successfully purchased and activated the SCF License for Animator. Since the "Purchase" button isn't always easy to find on the website, here is the method that worked for me:

      Prerequisites:
      Make sure you have the latest versions of SketchUcation Tools, LibFredo6, and Animator installed.

      Step 1: Purchase the License via SketchUp (Recommended)
      This method is the safest because it redirects you to the exact correct page in the shop.

      Install the plugins mentioned above.

      Open SketchUp 2017.

      Go to the menu: Tools > Fredo6 Collection > Animator > License...

      In the window that opens, click the button "Obtain License".

      This will open your web browser directly to the correct purchase page for the plugin.

      Purchase the license and download the .scflicense file to your computer.

      Step 2: Activate the License
      Now connect the downloaded file to the plugin in SketchUp.

      Open SketchUp 2017 again.

      Go to Tools > Fredo6 Collection > Animator > License...
      (Note: If the "License..." menu item is missing, your LibFredo6 or SketchUcation Tools version is likely outdated).

      Click on "Validate License".

      Browse for the .scflicense file you downloaded in Step 1 and select it.

      The system will do a quick online check. Afterwards, you should see a green checkmark with the status "Active".

      I hope this helps other Make 2017 users!

          @kavi-priyan install the Sketchucation ExtensionStore and use it to search for and install LibFredo6 and Curviloft. There's a 30-day trial period for Curviloft. After the 30 days you can purchase the license if you wish to continue using it.

              @zmd make sure all your extensions are the latest releases.

              If they are please share the error messages you are getting so we have something to chew on

                Also make sure you have the latest SketchUcation toolset installed for the licensing etc [>=5.0.5], it's version is shown in the top bar of its dialog.
                If you update it restart SketchUp to sync everything...
                As well as the latest versions of Fredo's extensions ensure you have his latest LibFredo6 too...
                PS. Don't confuse Fredo's RoundCorner and FredoCorner extensions, they are separate tools, each needing their own license...
                PPS. The current toolset requires >v2017 - what's yours ?

                      OK, When I go to the licenses link you provided, I am not seeing the FredoSketch license so I cannot download it.

                        Did you purchase a license for FredoSketch?

                          @Dave-R I thought so and have had it installed for a while. If you look at this screen shot you will see that I had it placed on my toolbar.

                          Also, If you look at the image from the SketchUp Extension Manager, you will see that I had a license.

                            The only thing I see in your screenshots is that you have the extension installed and that the trial period has expired. Nothing that shows you have purchased the license, though. The Extension Manager doesn't say anything about whether or not you have a license.
