Sketchucation Tools 5.0.1
-
As I mentioned, if I try to reinstall the plugin, I close SketchUp and open it again, but when I go to the SketchUp Extensions panel, it still says it’s deactivated. I try turning it off and restarting it, but it remains deactivated.
-
To uninstall SketchUcation - close SketchUp.
Open your SketchUp's Plugins folder.
Find the file SketchUcation.rb and its subfolder SketchUcation.
Select them and delete them.
Open the PluginStore page and download the latest RBZ - currently it's v5.0.1 [but v5.0.2 will be released very soon].
Open SketchUp.
Use SketchUp's Extension Manager to install that RBZ.
If there's an error message copy it and paste it into a reply.
Otherwise, can you activate the SketchUcation extension if it's shown disabled ? -
@TIG I followed the steps you told me, reinstalled the plugin, and now I am attaching the errors that come up.

Thank you for the error message. This is a known problem.
The UTF-8 text encoding error was reported recently - but only by two people.
I have now prepared alternative coding to trap for this unexpected issue.
We still don't know exactly what's causing this UTF-8 encoding error, but it's now sidestepped to avoid these issues.
Also some very rare internet connectivity issues, which threw up unexplained errors, are now trapped with error messages if there is a download/unzip failure.
Version 5.0.2 is now ready and being tested in house, it should be published in a few days - watch for announcements. -
@TIG If it can be useful to you, I use SketchUp in the Italian version because the UTF error seems to be a character issue.
