The problem has to do with the default web browser on Windows.

For whatever reason, SU2020 seems to use an old version of IE which is not compatible with HTML 5 and does not support SVG.

Why is it OK on SU2019 and not on SU2020 is a mystery.

I don't know how to help on that. I'll try to get some info.

Problem solved, also I am not sure wether I identified the real cause...
I installed sketchup 2019 and I observed it installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 which was not installed with sketchup 2020 probably.
Why is a question that I cannot answer but it may be worth exploring for those who are more competent than me.
I then launched sketchup 2020 and everything was fine. I uninstalled skp 2019 and Fredos's plugins aren't missing anything now.
Thank you!

Hi
This action does not solve the problem. I always install SU with administrator rights. I tried to install it on another computer. Problem still exists. The "Portrait" plugin also has a problem with svg. The plugin itself is working properly. SU2019 doesn't have this problem. Maybe this problem is only with me, I wanted to know how it works on your SU2020?

Exactly same problem here with SU 2020. After reinstalling Windows 10 and upgrading Sketchup 2019 to 2020 on a new ssd on my asus notebook INTEL i7-6700 (windows 10 pro 1909), some Fredo6 plugins are missing svg icons.
I have the same w10 configuration on my Desktop computer AMD RYZEN 7 and everything is absolutely fine.
Tried upgrading nvidia drivers, downgrading them, reinstalling Sketchup.
Many thanks for your plugins anyway...

Thank you very much !

It's working flawlessly in Sketchup 2017 !
You will have to convert the script file AT_set_standard_views.rb to UTF-8-BOM (without BOM) first, otherwise it won't load properly in 2017.
How to do such a thing ?

1. Unzip the AT_set_standard_views.ziparchive (link above in AlexM's post. Registration is free in case you are not registered).

2. Open the freeware editor Notepad++ and download it if you don't have it.
3. Load AT_set_standard_views.rb go to menu "Encoding" and click "Convert to UTF-8-BOM (whithout BOM)."

3. Save the file and exit
   There is a slight unzoom factor of .95 line 59.

I turned mine back to 1 (without AlexM's permission...).
4. Put the new saved file with its folder "ArchTools" into your sketchup 2017 Plugins directory %appdata%\SketchUp\SketchUp 2017\SketchUp\Plugins.
Copy and paste this blue text in your Explorer Address Bar if you don't know where to find it.
Reload Sketchup 2017 and enjoy your new extension.
There is an AT view submenu in the "Camera" menu and a nice toolbar shown in AlexM's post.
A life saver for all those who where relying daily on Chris Fullmer's CLF Extended Views plugin until 2017...
Many thanks to AlexM !

On SU 2014 Make the tool bar don't ok for:
Fredo tools
curvizard

Thanks.

Why not?

I think what Fcharly24H means is that the tool palette doesn't appear everytime you click on Fredo's toolbars icons with sketchup 2014.

For me it happens very often with thrupaint. When I click on the icon, it only triggers sketchup native paint bucket and if I zoom in and out while clicking on and off the tool palette might appears but not necessary.

I haven't noticed any problem with other tools though.

Thank you Fredo06 for your plugins !

%(#004080)[jiminy-billy-bob, thank you for your quick answer.

First, thank you for the plugin !
I have the same issue as vremennyi. Sketchup 2014 pro and windows 7. The plugin works well except when I try to launch sketchup by clicking a file stored on another drive (D:) or network. Then it cannot find winAPI.so.
It could explain vremennyi problem on his laptop.

Happy new year and thank you very much !

Hi!

Thanks for creating so useful SU plugin!

BTW, is there a way to center a model or component like the image B (not like the original script do - image A)?

I use this plugin for centering an object while setting it's bounding box bottom at 0 :

center_group_bottom.rb

You can find it at http://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/showthread.php?t=71321

download link

Here is my solution for getting no bugsplat whatsoever and with all my models : triangulating all the faces.

To do this the quickest way, I export the model as a 3DS model whith these options ticked to keep a good UV mapping :

• Export Full hierarchy
• Export two-sided faces
• Export Texture Maps
• Favor Preserving Texture Coordinates

Then I import it back whith merge coplanar faces unticked (very important because it would suppress all triangulation done while exporting !!!)

To get rid of all the unnecessary edges visually, I use ThomThom's CleanUp plugin with once more merge coplanar faces unticked but whith option smooth edge by angle raised to 20%.

Then I use Zorro2 and cut and cut and cut and never get any bugsplat anymore........
Hope this help!
I would like to thank a million times all the ruby coders for their unvaluable work!
