Hi,
I'm puzzled because the "split" method is called several dozens of times in the code so I can't localize exactly where there's something wrong at startup. Maybe it's a Mac issue. Do you have a file "housebuilder_sections.txt in the HouseBuilder folder ? I guess yes...
Give me some time to search...But take a look at the top of this thread, other people on Mac have the same issue as yours.

Hi Didier,

Thank you for the response. Yes, I do have have housebuilder_sections.txt in the HouseBuilder subfolder. This script is very useful, I saw the demo of this script at http://sites.google.com/site/3dbasecamp2008/all-sessions-2008/maxing-out-your-productivity-with-ruby-scripts.

Hi,
if you have correctly unzipped the package in your Plugins folder, there should'nt be any problem.
Check that you have:

• HouseBuilder_extension.rb in your Plugins folder
• a sub-folder named "HouseBuilder" with 2 other .rb files in it and a lot of png's and gif's as well. A .txt file is also there, with the wood sections listed in it.

Read the readme.txt file for further details.

Hi Didier,

I have unzipped HouseBuilder_metric_12.zip in the Plugins folder. The HouseBuilder_extension.rb and sub-folder "HouseBuilder" are there as described by you. When I launch SketchUp, I still get the following error.

"Error Loading File HouseBuilder_extension.rb private method split called for nil:NilClass"

Could you please advice me to resolve this issue.

I am using SketchUp Pro v6.0 on iMac, Mac os x 10.5.4.

Thanks,
Dayakar
