      I've been using the Fredo6 lib tools for a while now. This is the first time I've had any problems. Half of my menu options go blank when I open- Tools on a surface and I have no cursor to guide the placement of a point.
      I've updated all the tools for my Fredo Library. Reinstalled Fredo6Lib (just incase this was an issue) Restarted Sketchup and still having the issue.
      I work on a company computer so I'm waiting until last to reinstall SU25 as this will have to involve IT.

      With Draw on a surface the cursor shows up (On Edge)

      When I switch to Rectangle on a surface and I am still hovering over the left side menu things look fine.
      It's when I leave the menu thing begin to look a bit wonky. I lose a button on the left and my options along the top disappear. And as mentioned before, now Point Cursor.

        I would open the Ruby Console and copy paste the errors into your post here...

        I'm seeing the following:

        Maybe @fredo6 has feedback

          I can reproduce the issue and it should be present in all versions SU2023 ad SU2025.

          I need to dig deeper into the cause for this problem. In the meantime, I published a quick fix in LibFredo6 v15.4c, just published.

          PS: By the way, when you have a problem with a plugin, it is not useful to reinstall Sketchup, unless you are advised too.

            Rich, Fredo6,,
            Thanks for the response. I'll look in the console and update the post. Thanks for v15.4c link. I'll get right to it and reply soon.

                Precisely. The bug should be fixed in v15.4c.
