      Thank you TIG for pointing me to the latest version: I totally missed that......sorry!
      ..now, I have some experience using and working with sketchup, so the plugin not showing up at all was a little dazzling for me πŸ˜† Thanks a lot for your help by the way!
      The "roof.." entry now appears but anything I try to do, even with a simple rectangle selected, triggers a bugsplat.. Can you help me further?

          I know you're not a mage TIG πŸ˜†
          My question was about some kind of plugin conflicts you may know to be still lurking..
          The splat is easy to describe: empty scene, simple rectangle, selected, activate plugin, test with default values, OK and...splat!

          I haven't many plugins installed (I like to keep my SketchUp light πŸ˜‰ 😞 I have roundcorners, indigo renderer, furmaker, Fredoscale, Tools on surface and edge2 tools.

          Shall I try the plugin with sketchup8 free?

                  I have no time to recall the ruby console window, since the crash happens just as I click on the action I want to do. No warnings, no error windows.. Is there a way to read sort of a ruby console log of past events?

                    Let's think about clashing Plugins...
                    Find the Quarantine page at SCF and check you have none of those loading.
                    Also try with SketchyPhysics disabled.
                    Also disable any Render plugins and recently added BIM plugins etc...

                    If you use the 'SkecthUcation Plugins Manager' you can easily disable/enable plugins, restarting to remove the disabled plugins from the loaded set...

                    I suspect an issue with group methods getting ill-advisedly changed or observers breaking legit tools...

                    Clearly something is messing up here...

                    A list of all of your loading plugins might help narrow the list of suspects...

                      Hello TIG, I'm running Sketchup 2015, have downloaded the Roof V2, and pasted it in the 'Tools' folder (there is no 'Plug-ins' folder). After shutting Sketchup down and restarting, 'Roof' still does not appear on the menu. I've done this three times. What am I doing wrong?

                        First off - remove the Roof RB file/subfolder [or RBZ ?] from Tools. and install it correctly.
                        Get the latest RBZ from the PluginStore - it's at v4.0:
                        https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=Roof
                        Thread is here:
                        http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=17156#p17156
                        It's linked in the big pink block in this old thread's first post...

                        The latest RBZ archive needs to be installed using Window > Preferences > Extensions > Install Extension [gray-button].
                        Note that in v2017 this installer-button has moved into Window > Extension Manager, and is 'red'.

                        The contents of the RBZ are then extracted into your User Plugins folder.
                        For several versions of SketchUp this has NOT been in the main SketchUp folder within Program Files - you should never need to change or add anything as it's reserved and has restricted permissions too.

                        The User Plugins folder is now in your User's AppData folder-path.
                        It's hidden by default, as you rarely need to manually change it.
                        You can see it by changing the Windows Explorer 'Folder Options'...

                        Copy/Paste this + enter in the Window > Ruby Console, it opens your Plugins folder for you...
                        UI.openURL("file:///#{Sketchup.find_support_file("Plugins")}")
                        the path will be:
                        C:/Users/YOURWINDOWSUSERNAME/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2017/SketchUp/Plugins

                        TIG
