With the latest version of Lord of thr Toolbar the compatibility problem with vay 7 has been solved but now I find another problem, often when I open sketchup, it crashes, The crash happens just when it goes to open the menu bars created with Lord of the toolbar. I found that by disabling Lord of the Toolbar, Sketchup opens perfectly. I don't understand which one is due to incompatibility with other plugins or from something else. To open sketchup I have to disable Lord of the toolbar AND re-enable it when it is open, through the Sketchauction plugin manager.

@fredo6 It works great, congratulations for your speed and competence, thanks

@fredo6 Congratulations it works, it would certainly be nice to see it in the Lott list. Now without the lotoftoolbar I can no longer draw with skichup

@fredo6 If you want I can put you in touch with Chaos i have the name of the support person

@jkoll66 I also have the same problem I reported the problem to both chaos and fredo let's see if they solve it for me it is essential Lost of the toolbar

@panixia Hi Marcello, with € 11 you can easily do it even with blender, even with large ones
STEPper

@Chris-Fullmer Hi Chris this plugin only works with old versions or even with the latest ones. I have it on 2024 and it doesn't work

@TIG Thanks I understand. But my question was another I wanted to know if some plugins that I have on extension warehouse are compatible with extension store I can transfer them, is there a procedure or do I have to reinstall them on extension store? Like, Fredo6, Thomthom, s4u, curic, .... ec

I have never installed with extension store but my question is, what I have already installed with sketchup extension can I automatically transfer it to extension store installations? Do I have to reinstall all my plugins with extension store store?

Basically I would like to manage the plugin from the Extension store in order to update the plugins more efficiently but I have never installed the plugins with the extense store and I wanted to know if there is a method to see the plugins installed on the extension store without having to install all the plugins again.

Do I have to reinstall all the plugins with extension store? Do I have to reinstall the licenses or do they remain

@Rich-O-Brien I know many other solutions but They are tricks to get around the problem but the problem remains it is not possible to manage sections scenes in a simple way. It would need a panel to manage the sections anyway thanks for the suggestion.

@Rich-O-Brien I'll start by saying that I'm not a programmer. I created this script with cloud 3 5 AI to disable or activate the sections in the project. The plug-in correctly creates the list of sections but even though I created the activate and deactivate buttons, they don't work. I tried it on sketchup 2024. Is there anyone who can give me that suggestion?

@Rich-O-Brien I consider this function a basic function of the program I do not have an option to have those who develop plugins in Ruby create. A panel to manage sessions is essential as it is to manage levels to manage scenes to manage materials to manage components in practice it is a function in my opinion fundamental However if there is someone who wants to develop a plugin of this kind I am available to give my suggestions to implement the necessary functions

Hi, I’m asking you why Sketchup has never created a panel for managing sections, like tags, to be able to activate, deactivate, rename, delete them and if possible match them to scenes. I think this function is essential because I often find myself with many sections inside objects and components and managing them becomes complicated. There is the possibility of acting also with the structure panel but it is difficult to disentangle oneself within the subgroups. I think this is a fundamental function for sketchup and I don’t understand why no one has ever thought of it. Often to manage the activation of the sections I go through the vray panel. When a function like this

Who is available to develop a Plugin that solves this problem?

@Rich-O-Brien

Compliments.

Re: SubD examples and models

Hi cold today I have this problem with the ThruPaint license. I tried to reinstall the license but it gives me an error that it has expired and in my panel I can't find the TruPaint license. It seemed to me I seemed to have a validated Unlimited license. What should I do, thank you

@fredo6 said in Curviloft and sketchup 2024 problem:

@alexpacio2013

The problem should be fixed with the new version LibFredo6 v14.4c, just published.

Many thanks for signaling the bug and providing the model.

Perfect, thanks for the quick resolution of the problem
