[Plugin] Roof.rb
-
@dave r said:
TIG, it does load as the entry into the Console works. I changed the name to #Roof.rb and that works, too. The menu entry shows near the top of the Plugins menu instead of alphabetically.
BUT does Artisan then work ?
It already works for me either way, so I can't see what Artisan might be doing to screw up 'Roof' loading properly and making its menu?
Here's my [unscrambled] 'current' version - please see if this version of 'Roof.rb' works ?? NOTE: this pre-v.4 one is for 'testing only'...*** EDIT: I have removed the temporary version - please get this one [i.e. the 4 of you who tried it and any v3 users!] http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=17156#p17156 -
Oops. No, the toolbar for Artisan doesn't show up now nor does it appear in the menu.
The unscrambled version does work and Artisan seems to work with it, too.
-
Yep, the latest version works for me too and doesn't mess up Artisan. Thanks.

Here's a slightly improved version http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=17156#p17156
It avoids the clash with Artisan [which is quite frankly completely inexplicable!] and fixes one or two other internal glitches...
I have removed the test version from the recent post - please replace it with this linked one asap.....
ALL users should download it asap........ -
Why inexplicable?
-
Thanks TIG. I'll do that when I get home and check it. I expect it'll be just fine though.

Because I can't explain [explicate] it !
My original code was encrypted [a simple encryption, as used by Didier Bur too].
If that loads after Artisan then it has no menu BUT works from the Ruby Console [files load in alphanumeric order].
If you renamed it so it loaded before Artisan then it was fine... BUT then Artisan didn't load at all
I used a decrypted version that worked fine with Artisan, so I was unaware of the problem...
My own version had some minor coding tweaks BUT nothing I can see that should make it behave any differently to the encrypted one... There are almost 4,000 lines of code so I don't want to trawl all of them to find the possible culprit... there are no error messages to help and 'Roof' and 'Artisan' now work fine together with this version anyway...This new 'unencrypted' & tweaked version works fine now - I recommend everyone to change to it...
-
Nice explication
My comedic timing must be a little off today...
-
Thanks very much for the update TIG.
-
Yep. The update seems to be working fine. Thanks.
-
Thanks for updating the plugin, Tig. If you can figure out the problem, let me know. Maybe there is something I can change to fix this. I also have no idea what would cause this.
-
Thank U TIG!
This plugin will be appreciated as every thing else you created!
BRAVO!!!! -

BUT then Artisan didn't load at allafter some debugging at 2am I found the problem - scrambled scripts and pack eval encrypted scripts both return (eval) for FILE , so when tested with file_loaded? the one that gets loaded second it will not execute the block after (usually menu creation code)
workaround: use file_loaded("your_filename") or file_loaded("reverse URI")
eg file_loaded("roof.rb") or file_loaded("ro.plugins.drop") -
Thanks TIG, much appreciated!!

Thank U very much TIG. You made a great plugin even greater!

Thanks for the update TIG

Not to be a pest but something isn't right. The "eaves soffit size" is resulting in erroneous dimensions on opposing sides. For instance I input and eaves soffit size of 24" all around but I wind up with 1'-9 3/16" on one side and 2'-2 1/2" on another. Another conflict perhaps or am I imagining things. Did this with a "new" skp as well. Any ideas? Thanks. -

I assume this is with 'gable-roof' ?
The other tools all offset equally anyway ?
I can't reproduce any error...
On a hipped-roof the overhang is always equal too ?
Can you post a SKP that will give you the error [or PM it]...
I can't break it

I can't break itTIG OK, here's a skp file that I just created. Looks like the gable roof comes out good but the hip and mansard result in the same overhang dimensions. This is all using default setting on the ruby.rb.
