      Hi Fredo,
      Not sure this is what you were expecting ...

      UI.openURL File.join(LibFredo6.tmpdir, 'Binaries', 'SU24').
      Error: #<SyntaxError:"(eval):1: syntax error, unexpected end-of-input\n...o6.tmpdir, 'Binaries', 'SU24').\n... ^\n">

      looks like the 'check for Fredo6 ...' window is also not right.

      I have done a clean install of your plugins - nothing changed

      then... did a clean install (as administrator) of sketchup 2024

      deleted the contents of the plugins folder

      downloaded sketchucation Plugin Store
      then
      fredoLib
      and

    • RE: Fredo Lord of Toolbars no longer working

      HI Fredo
      I am also experiencing issues - I've upgraded to 2024 and the vignette bar isnt correct, only a small portion can be seen.

      2024-04-06_07-34-45.jpg

      The icons you see can be used as usual, anything to the right gone

      made the vignette smaller, by opening the 2024-04-06_07-50-22.jpg and using the menu to alter the icon vignette bar - which results in the same but smaller

      The ruby console is clear - apart from
      "English"
      true
      "Can not load Curic Helpper!"

      Any thoughts
      Cheers
      Chris

      supplementary:
      As the
      2024-04-06_07-50-22.jpg
      button is working I tried opening importing my .lott from SU23
      then noticed that theres no synchronize buttons visible (the window is open to the maximum)

      2024-04-06_07-53-11.jpg

      in SU23 this should look like this ?

    • RE: Plugin UI ??

      That Auto Pie Menu is Crazy!!

      I havd a go at Curics Pie Menu but it was too slow. LOTTbars is sooo fast. Not tried yours I'm affraid but indended to until I pursued with Fredos, where I preferred the familier UI resembling SU.

    • Plugin UI ??

      Hi All,
      Recently I’ve been in the situation of Laptop only, going from two screens to one wasn’t too bad a transition. What it has made me very aware of is how wasteful the tray system / Su UI is! There’s a ton of mismanaged space in all the trays. Trays don’t stay thin. I'm not a fan of popping up trays that have been parked in the side bar that then cover your work. Anyway…

      With the comprehensive plugin by Fredo, ‘LOTBars’, shaping this thought - is it possible to create a new interface?
      Just a thought.

      Is there a discussion that anyone knows of about the tray system that I could look at? UI questions etc.

      Cheers in Advance
      Chris.

      @rv1974

      Thanks for the 2cents. Sounds great - Not sure if it helps me with the buttons I’d created for plugins that don’t have buttons. But I do take you’re point about short cuts. I have so many though it’s hard to keep them in my head, especially the ‘used occasionally’ variety. Also I am running out of suitable key combinations ! Ha ha. I tend to keep everything on the left hand side of the keyboard for speed and one hand.

      I don't think there will be a solution for the future, as there is no longer any API to access menus and screen visual elements.

      This is indeed sad news! LOTB has speeded up my work. Its quick, easy and (was) very adapatble. I am still a keen fan and will be a tester if ever you need help with further developments.
      Cheers for all your hard work

    • RE: [Plugin] LordOfTheToolbars - v2.9c - 20 Dec 24

      Hi All,
      I have recently updated to SU2023 and this is my first time hearing about a UI limitation and it having a negative effect on LOTB.

      Since updating LOTB and SU, my personal buttons I've created, have stopped working. They are greyed out as if the extension/plugin is not associated with it.

      When I 'edit' or create 'New' the next window that pops up should show all the extensions/plugins to associate with the icon/button - as you see, this is Blank. even when i search...

      Is the UI limitation in SU2023 my problem ? or me doing it wrong? or something else, otherwise its working as expected.

      Cheers in Advance
      Chris

      Hi Fredo,
      I have a few problems using Portrait Studio

      When its open, SU looks like it jumps back a few steps. if i click into a group with Portrait open it will jump back to what ever happen a few moments ago - if I rotated , altered position or placed an object

      Please see you personal messages and the dropbox link to the movie i just took

      Cheers

    • Do Components keep folder structure?

      Hi All,
      Do components keep there folder structure afte you paste?

      I have spent some time sorting out a fairly complex model into groups and applying Tags to them as well as Folders

      I use component finder (Flextools) to manage components and after dragging a dropping all the folder structure has gone

      is this expected behaviour ?

      I hope its not 😆 he says clutching at straws....

      Hi Fredo,

      I have whole heartly enbraced LOTT! It is exactly what I need to clean up my place of work!

      The Vinette strip is incredibly fast as you hover over, which is exactly what it needs to be. I wonder possibly if there could a way of spacing out the icons / bigger area to hover over as when in the speed of the moment you can easily brush over the adjacent icon

      Maybe a separator would work like the pallettes have
      or
      Bigger wider version of each icon? (I have small su icons enabled to save valuable space and i think that should still be on - what do you think?)
      or
      A Separate icon that act as a Vinette for each pallette you need and you can float or add to tool bar?

      what do you think?

      Cheers
      and Thanks Again

      Chris

      Hi Fredo!
      Again your plugins enable us users to do so much more with sketchup. Thank you.

      I have only scratched the surface regarding FPortrait using Custom Cameras.

      Is there a Settings Page? you sometimes have one... I would like to have the window open permanently and not disappear when I click a change. Is this possible? or am I missing something?

      Cheers
      Chris

      WIP! 😄

      I was going for a big palette with lots of icons I'll have to plan a bit better and maybe use more palettes with reduced amounts in
