Hi Jim,
@unknownuser said:
would you mind sharing the minor tweaks
I'm afraid it would be useless because I simply replaced all the calls to "Ruby Console" by "Console Ruby", but that's only for french. Each version of SU does have a particular name for the Ruby Console, so... Even a call to langhandler.rb (with 'getstring') will not work since this deals with a window name, not a message string or such. 
Regards,
Everything's OK with the french version now, including toggle
Only minor tweaks were necessary 
Hi Jim,
Thanks for the update: icons are there now 
Show/Hide console doesn't work 
(not very important)
Clear console only moves the text in the console 1 line up 8O
The title of the Ruby console window in french is "Console Ruby". This could cause the problem...
But the most important command "Reload script" works OK since the first version 
Thanks again for this very useful tool,
Regards,
Jim,
I'm having the "blank icons syndrom" (all png's are in Plugins folder)
The line that seems to cause the problem is:
imgdir = File.join(File.dirname(FILE), File.basename(FILE, ".rb"))
It returns: ./(eval)
then the icon file location File.join(imgdir, "rubypanel.png") returns: ./(eval)/rubypanel.png
Please help !
The 'toggle' method doesn't work also. 
At least in V5.
Question: Is findWindow.call(0,"Ruby Console") rely on language settings of SU ? I mean is "Ruby Console" available just for english versions of SU ? In this case the win32api call will not work with other platforms.
P.S.:
UI.openURL("c;\\program files\\google\\google sketchup 6\\plugins")
A non hard-coded command would be handy. Why not get this path from the registry ? Or something like:
su_ver = Sketchup.version.split(".")[0].to_i
if su_ver < 6
devdir = File.dirname(Sketchup.find_support_file("sketchup.exe")) + "\Plugins"
else
devdir = ...
end
This makes the command compatible for SU5 and 6 (I guess), no matter where the user has installed SU.
Regards,
Cool
very VERY VERY useful tool,
Thanks a lot from all the developers !
hem hem 
where's the gem ? (didn't find it at Sketchy Endeavors )
Boofredlay,
Did you notice that the load is searching for a "Scripts" folder ?
Do you have the rb's in the "Scripts" folder under "Plugins"?
This have been made to keep things clean.
Hello all,

Hi todamgood4U,
Yes I got them.
As soon as I've debugged an ACO C++ reader that converts swatches files to hexa colors, I'll be able to generate the library (I can read the colors by now, but there's a bug to read their names).
Regards,
It should be present now. Sorry, my profile was not set correctly
In case of no PM button, here's my email: bur@crai.archi.fr
Cheers,
Yes, send me the ACO file and I'll see what I can do with it
Cheers,
Thanks Mike,
I knew that site, that's where I've found interesting conversion formulas, but browsing the links page, I've discovered treasures about colors. I'm thincking of a Munsell colors generator. Don't know if it will be useful for much people but that's for fun too
Cheers,
Todamgoodforyou,
For Sherwin-W, go here: http://www.sketchucation.com/scf/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2498
For Kelly Moore, I cannot find any numeric data about their colors
If someone knows where to find them (no matter the file format), please post the link.
Cheers,
Hi all,
Following RAL and SW colors, I've built (with a ruby script) the Pantone library.
The colors were given in CMYK mode (and then most accurately translated to rgb mode) in a huge txt file extracted from a french free color program that you can find here:
http://pourpre.com/colorbox/index.php
Create a folder "Pantone" under your "Materials" folder and unzip the 3 archives there.
This makes a total of 1089 materials
Hope this is useful,
Hi,
As promides a few days ago, the Munsell Maker is ready for download here:
http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=153&t=1526
You can cretate SU materials (colors) based on the Munsell naming convention, build colors libraries, and more. read PDF doc first
Regards,
Edit: UPDATED 09.13.07 for a bug fix. Same download link.
And now the last one, ILOG colors library (650 colors).
Create a new folder "Ilog" (for instance) under your your "Materials" folder and unzip the 2 archives there.
Regards,
