Skin.rb Files
-
This might help.
When I download
Versio 2.2(current)
from
viewtopic.php?f=153&t=6912
I get file.php which I was throwing away because I couldn't do anything with it,
until,
I opened it in TextEdit ( I am a Mac ) and discovered it was a text file, I renamed it to skin.rb. I copied it to the plugins folder.
Downloading the icons I get file.php which is a folder with icons and skin.rb which I throw. I load the folder 'skin' into plugins.
After a little time I got it to work, looking good, thanks.
But, how do I know for sure which version I have ?
Is there any documentation ?
Is there anyway to put a comment in the header of the skin.rb file so I would know for sure ?
Are there any basic guidelines as to how folders and files should appear in the plugins folder ?
Many thanks.

ummmm... i cant get this 2 work. i put it in the plugins directory, fine, but when i start SketchUp, nothing changes. 
.any ideas....? -
before start sketchup, check in plug-ins dir(from skin22.zip too)
skin
skin.rb - (rename, by deleting 22)and if skin-extension was unloaded, check it in prefs dialog(but for me this feature not works properly)
-
I have it with the original name... Hm...
Go to Window (menu) > Preferences > Extensions and activate the tool. A toolbar of 4 buttons should appear.
Also you can use it from Tools > D. B. Tools without the toolbar. -
Hi Csaba. Have you current?
Version 2.2(current) - has only 2 functions(2 buttons in toolbar) - "Clean" and "Skin"you was right about turn off...why does toolbar switch off?(many problems with sCRapy toolbars...Jim discovery at his blog)
-
Thanks gaieus, never thought to look there. i'd looked all over, everywhere(or so i thought), and it turns out that it was right under my nose.
But i haveanother problem: only 2 of the 4 buttons appear, and i do have the latest version. and the icons for the buttons appear. Strange, huh? -
What do the tooltips say on the buttons? (Maybe I don't have the latest version - actually I don't use two of the buttons and don't even really know what they are for...)
-
you downloaded only rb file...also need zip with icon-images for toolbar
unpack into plugins...so
you will have such structure:
+plugins\- skin\ //(dir with images)
- skin.rb
"Skin" - Connects the two selected sides
"Clean" - Removes all coplanar or empty selected edges -
Whoa. sorry if this is off topic, but when browsing my plugins folder i found out what went wrong with a plugin that i installed(or tried to)...5 months ago
. yep, 5 months. but i still don't see what went wrong with this one -
hi there all... the latest download has really just 2 icons but i see people who have 4 icons for this script????
-
Can we have a description of the script?
-
Hi all!
Here is the originally post of this script... There is explained in detail. -
Men... this is completely awesome!!!
ver 2.2 works perfect... but in a non developer language, what will clean do?
again, THANK U VERY MUCH!
