[Plugin] LordOfTheToolbars - v4.1a - 20 Oct 26
-
Hi, the Library is 6.2b. I am not sure about how to use the Ruby Console to check for errors. I tried leaving it on and restarting sketchup. I am using sketchup pro 21. Everything was ok with the previous version of the Toolbar. Thanks

@fredo6 Hi, I checked the Fredo library and it is correct. I am not sure about how the Ruby + Console works. I tried leaving it open and there are warnings, but I cannot see any mention of LOTT. See below, for 1st console page which contains links that go to a lot of code in the console
"Add help menu!"
"create new"
"created"

The current version is 16.2b - perhaps you made a typo ? You need to restart SketchUp after installing any extension so it is properly synced.
Please post the whole error message - part is not sufficient - in the Ruby Console -Ctrl+A to Select All then Ctrl+V to Paste that into your message here... -
Thanks I have restarted each time, after several reinstalls. There is definitely an issue. I was trying to do a clean install. Maybe I need to track down some sort of cache or config file that might be corrupt, it appears to revert to the last backup. Here is the full console message.

I can confirm Library is 16.2b

The open v. URI.open deprecation issue has been around for quite along time.
Any developer using it will have rewritten their code to sidestep that issue and use the current 'safe' methods...
I can't believe that Fredo has left this 'hanging' - so have you perhaps got some now incorrect older legacy Fredo files loading, which could confuse the situation ?
Fredo might have some ideas as to what files to look for ??
@fredo6 do6 ? -
Did you upgrade Sketchucation tools to 5.0.8 ?
-
@fredo6
Question: why is there an open v. UI.open error message at all ?
I sure you will have trapped for that long ago after the versions' Ruby changes ?
Could he have a rogue file hanging around in one of your subfolders which is somehow loading a spurious old deprecated method ? -
LibFredo6 does not use URI.open anyway.

@horizon41
Do you still have the problem of height adjustment with LOTT? -
Yes. I have checked all my drivers. Updated 3d Connex and Nvidia RTX. I also did a repair/install on sketchup. I uninstalled and reinstalled LOTT. NB it did reinstate the last toolbar configuration. The same problems are there. I suspect the auto adjust palletes may be the issue. I am using the default hover mode and if I hover and click the tab that pallete moves to below the Sketchup Top Toolbar about 20mm below the main LOTT. 1 pallette moves directly beneath the LOTT. I cannot move the order of the tabs in the LOTT and I cannot move any of the palletes. Some of the toolbars are not showing all the tabs and I can adjust (not move) to show but it forgets this regardless of whether auto adjust is selected.
Is it possible for me to try reinstalling the previous version? I did not save it. Thanks
-
So a weird message - a rogue older Lib6Traductor ot similar that might load and add a spurious old method ?
I assume that you you checked the expected code with a 'find' by line to see if a raw 'open' ever gets called - by mistake [e.g. a typo] - and there by the error can mistakenly assume that UI.open was the intention ? -
Sorry I am not code savy but appreciate the help. Should I uninstall/reinstall the Lib Fredo6?
-
@Horizon41
@fredo6 will advise - I suspect that there might be some files/subfolders to remove then reinstall - perhaps not all in the Plugins folder ... followed by a 'clean reinstall' ...
He'll advise in detail... -
It is possible that it could also be registry related. I use CCCleaner from time to time and I have had issues with sketchup before. This is unlikely as it happened straight after the update and I did not use the cleaner. Any registry issues have been resolved by doing a repair/install of sketchup. I have also come across a plugin conflict with 1001 tools that affected LOTT.

I have LOTT 4.0a loaded & Libfredo 16.2b. When I create a toolbar and I tick the block for it to show up and want to add functions to the toolbar it shows in the toolbar editor but not in the actual toolbar, not when closing and re-opening the toolbar or when restarting SU. The only way I can currently solve this is to delete the toolbar and recreate it.
+++EDIT+++
Also, some icons are not loading for some extensions as they take longer to load into SU and then LOTT is already loaded, so it doesn't pick them up. Is there perhaps a chance of putting an load delay timer option in to work around this problem?

Is there a roadmap for the next release? Hopefully this will resolve the problem with the toolbar creation.
-
I am not clear with the first problem. Maybe you could produce a short video to explain what you do and what does not work (even in French).
I am not clear either with the second issue. LOTT waits for all plugins to be loaded in menus and toolbars normally. Do you have an example of an extension which is delayed?
-



I hope this makes sense for the toolbar creation issue?
The starting up and not loading an extension (due to it not having finished loading already, it checks licencing and takes a couple of seconds) seems to be limited to MuzWalls.
