[Plugin] LordOfTheToolbars - v4.2a - 21 Oct 26

[fredo6]

@juju,

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?

[juju]

@fredo6

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.

@juju
It should be fixed in LOTT v42.a. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[fredo6]

Does this mean it works now?

[juju]

@fredo6 Thank you for the effort you put into your extensions and maintaining them, it is appreciated.

The Muzwalls loading error seems to be resolved, that error message no longer pops up. Unfortunately the custom toolbars with the MuzWalls items doesn't work, buttons greyed out while the actual MuzWalls toolbars are fine and functional.

The toolbar editing problem, where items are not added once the toolbar was checked to appear on screen, still persists. It doesn't update any custom toolbar additions or omissions once the toolbar was selected to appear on screen. The only work-around is to delete the toolbar and recreate it from fresh.

Curious, any idea why my pallets would look like this in 2017 make? Out of support thing?

[fredo6]

@LinearGraphs
Which scale factor do you use on your monitor?

What happen if you close the vignette stripe and reopen it (via the menu Tools > Fredo6 Collection > LordOfTheToolbars?

[LinearGraphs]

Toggling visibility has no effect. Ive actually reset and all and all my pallets and setting and started from scratch as well. This is a fresh install of the latest version.

[fredo6]

Did you use 150% before, with the previous version of LibFredo6 and SU2017?

It may be a bug I introduced in LibFredo or LOTT, because SU2017 is the only version that does compute size in physical pixels and not in logical pixels.

However, on my laptop, SU2017 behaves well, but my scale is 125%

[LinearGraphs]

I used to only use external monitors, but now im using the laptop screen. Tried all scale settings, no dice.

[fredo6]

This is an issue with SU2017, which as far as I remember does not support well external monitors with different resolutions as the main computer screen.

Could you go to Window > LibFredo6 Settings... > Default Parameters

At the top of the dialog box, check the first line and set the factor to 1.5

No guarantee it works, but worth trying.

@fredo6 Any ideas on this yet?

[fredo6]

Did you solve the problem of size of the Vignette Stripe?

For Muzwalls, I think this is due to the late loading of the plugin. So, LOTT cannot catch them at startup.

For custom toolbars, I can check, but I think you have to restart Sketchup to see the changes.

[LinearGraphs]

@fredo6

Unfortunately, no. No dice. Still clipped.

[LinearGraphs]

@fredo6
Is there no way to reset it? Mind you, this is happening on the laptop display with no external monitors connected.

Is there no load delay option that can be done? Or perhaps advise for MuzWalls authors how to get it to load faster and checking of licensing? There are other extensions that also have to load and check licensing that do seem to load fine.

I've tried restarting inbetween, it doesn't make a difference, changes do not reflect once the custom toolbar was actualised (ticked) to show on screen, even if you switch it off and switch it back on later.

[fredo6]

Custom toolbars cannot be updated once on screen. This is because toolbars in Sketchup are not editable. I think LOTT can just add new icons.
Normally, at next restart, the custom toolbars should show as designed.

For Muzwalls, I have to check what is the real issue.
