        @fredo6 I installed the recent second version of 1.5b. When I quit SketchUp on my Mac, a whole flock of messages appear in the Ruby Console. Unfortunately, they flash past so quickly that it is not possible to read them, but the little I am able to spot seems to say they are coming from either libFredo6 or FredoSection. Are these (could they be) logged in a file somewhere so that they can be examined?

            Can you clarify the 'Can you make it work'. I am not sure I understand how this relates to FredoSection. Thanks.

              If you have view (in style) set to "Hidden Line Mode" or "Shaded using all the same" so you can show just black & white in LayOut...it doesn't show the section images

                Hi Fredo, I use Curic Section nowadays, but I've been following FredoSection with interest and will try it fully when I have the time. Still I have a feature request:

                Could you consider the idea of multilayered offsets from Section.

                Imagine following scenario:

                Group has Masonry material applied.
                Face inside Group has Plaster material applied.
                FredoSection would create a Section fill with Masonry hatch and an inset of 2cm from the edge that matches the Plaster material, where a Plaster hatch would be applied.

                If the masonry wall would have several faces painted with plaster, then all these faces would create a plaster offset hatch when sectioned.

                If you want to make this outstanding, then that plaster offset could be a multiple offset representing several layers:

                • Masonry Group - Section Fill is Masonry
                • Ventilated Façade on external Face - Aluminium 1cm + Air gap 2cm + Insulation 6cm + Waterproofing 0.25cm + Mortar 2cm.
                • Plaster material on internal Face - Plaster 2cm

                The Object is still painted as Masonry

                But section would be:

                Interior Space | Plaster 2cm | Masonry Xcm | Aluminium 1cm + Air gap 2cm + Insulation 6cm + Waterproofing 0.25cm + Mortar 2cm | Exterior Space

                Xcm would be the leftover value after subtracting these multiple layers offsets.

                    Just update to latest release along with updating LibFredo. FredoSection is still in Beta so there is no license needed.

                      @Rich-O-Brien But it won't let me use the product without a license, and I can't buy the license. I love this plugin, I'm happy to pay for it. It finally solves one of my major issues with using the products. Just need to know how to give someone some $. 🙂

                        There is currently no license for this extension, it's a beta release.
                        Please post error/messages etc which lead you to believe a license is needed...
                        It works for me, no issues.
                        There is no 'licensing' entry in its submenu ??

                          Hi Fredo6,

                          I downloaded your FredoSection plugin, but I’m experiencing some issues when using it. Parts of the section fills are missing, as shown in the attached images.

                          Is there any way to fix this?

                          Thank you.
