ThruPaint Licensed Version 2.9 on Mac

Re: [Plugin][$] ThruPaint - v2.9a - 21 Apr 26
This is about Licensed 2.9a version on MacOS Tahoe, Sketchup 2021.
Dears, we own a ThruPaint license and we love it. 2.9a version seems to solve some bugs but we CANNOT use it because we cannot change the materials. 1.When we lunch the ThruPaint and auto-hide option hides the ThruPaint Material window, we cannot reopen it. The mini toolbar that used to appear in previous versions, used to revoke it never appears again.
2. When we disable auto-hide in settings the first time we close the window by going to another tool like tape measure, it will also never reapear again,. This second situation is shown on the attached screen recording. Please help.

Maybe @fredo6 can shed some light on this.
In the meantime if you open the Ruby Console and copy any errors that appear there. Share those errors messages here.
Also run the Window > Libfredo Settings > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation Support menu command and copy/paste that info here too.

Hi, what I found out is that when I reverted back to 2.8 the small toolbar which I can use to open materials browser was also not appearing. I had to downgrade the LibFredo as well to be able to use the plugin.
My ruby console shows no errors at all.

Only thing that stands out is you are using an outdated Sketchucation Tools which could lead to licensing issues. I'd suggest upgrading.
But if you open the Ruby Console while using ThruPaint it may output error messages that would also be helpful when @fredo6 see this thread.
