    Hi, I downloaded Angular Dimension 5 V6,2. At installation I get the message "this seems not to be a Sketchup model" and the installation is aborted.
    I run W10 pro and SU 2021 in French.
    Thanks for your support.
    Regards Hodi.

      First, this is not a bug in SketchUp so I've moved it from the SketchUp Bugs category. Extensions are not opened in SketchUp like a SketchUp file. Go to Window>Extension Manager and click on Install Extension at the bottom of the Extension Manager window. Navigate to where you saved the downloaded file, select it, and choose Open. It will be intalled after that.

      Better method would be to install the Sketchucation Extension Store tool from Resources at the top of the forum page. Install that as described above and then use it to search for and install extensions.

        It sounds like you are not installing the file correctly.

        When you download an extension you will get an RBZ file in your 'Downloads' folder.

        Ensure your web-browser's options are set to 'save' the file-type .RBZ
        Do not try to 'open' it - e.g. by wrongly setting it to open in SketchUp.
        It is NOT a SketchUp model so it will make an error.

        Once you have the RBZ in your Downloads folder open SketchUp.
        Menu item Window > Extension Manager > Install... button
        Find that RBZ and SketchUp will install it for you into your Plugins folder, automatically...


        Il semble que vous n'installez pas correctement le fichier.

        Lorsque vous téléchargez une extension, vous obtiendrez un fichier RBZ dans votre dossier 'Downloads' [Téléchargements].

        Assurez-vous que les options de votre navigateur-web sont définies pour 'enregistrer' le type de fichier .RBZ
        N'essayez pas de 'l'ouvrir' - par ex. en le paramétrant à tort pour ouvrir dans SketchUp.
        Ce n'est PAS un modèle SketchUp, il fera donc une erreur.

        Une fois que vous avez le RBZ dans votre dossier 'Downloads' [Téléchargements], ouvrez SketchUp.
        Élément de menu Fenêtre > Gestionnaire d'extensions > Bouton Installer...
        Trouvez que RBZ et SketchUp l'installeront pour vous dans votre dossier Plugins, automatiquement ...
