        Actually, it does work in both SU2013 and SU2014 but you have to go through some gymnastics and hold your tongue just the right way. ๐Ÿ˜‰

        Try extracting the contents of the attached ZIP file to the Materials folder and see what you get. On PC you'll probably have to use Open or Create a collection to get SU to look at the folder.

              i rushed to thank but cant make it work on 2013. I copied the file in the materials folder but sketchup cant see it. I then made a ral folder and copied there the skm file. Sketchup sees the ral folder but its emty. Any other idea?

              UPDATE: TIG saved my life everything is ok. TIG your king.

                    I donยดt know why the zip is damage or in a wrong format. i use windows8

                    could you try RAR? normally WIN RAR can zip files open, too

                    thank you Dean

                    p.s. color and "farben" is the same, only the file is different ๐Ÿ˜‰

                        thank you Dave its the German Version ๐Ÿ˜„

                        all Beginner (not you Dave) in Sketchup must remember, that RAL is a subtractive color system

                          Hello,
                          I've downloaded Tig's RAL file with English names (thanks Tig) and placed it in my materials folder, where all the colours are in a second folder and show as SKM files. It shows as a collection in the paint bucket but it's empty....I've tried a re-start a couple of times but still no joy.... help please ๐Ÿ˜„

                                thanks Driven,

                                I've managed to sort it with Dave's help, the problem was that I'd put all of Tig's folder in my plugins folder, where as I should have opened his folder and just copied/moved the folder within the folder, (i.e. the one containing all the skm files) into my plugins folder. Once I'd done that it worked fine.

                                best regards, Sally
