    • SU14 migrating extensions and plugins

      [color=#8000BF:39ttsc5l]**%(#800040)[I have looked through many of the Q&A about the changes from SU8>SU2013 >2014
      and the changes to SU14 have totally ruined sketchup for me.

      None of the plugins now work,
      none of the extensions show up even from inside extension warehouse in SU2014 even after you click install from with SU14, where are they going? SU13 wasn't broken so why make all these huge changes. I never heard of all these permissions issues that is supposedly why the plugin folder was deleted.....

      I'm amazed anyone is even using SU14

      very disappointed]**[/color]

    • RE: Component issues

      Yes, me think you are correct obei-one, the trouble with all these great plugins and tools is that I always look for a shortcut to complicated things.

      Thanks for the advice, now to do the repetitive hoop and hole making, some images attached in case you have a genius shortcut idea. The file sis too big to upload.

      cheers ashley

      many thanks....
      ive been trying to use fredo6scale to scale a tower of hoops to a cone but realise this still shrinks the width and the thickness of the hoops not just the width... probably no plugin for that..... hmmmmmmm

    • RE: [Plugin] Slots 4 Tabs

      hi kwok
      well done
      no idea about my measurements being off on my computer, but that did work now by putting

      $kyyu_s4t = 3.mm

      can i just open up the plugin in note pad and change that line to make it do that permanently?

      many thanks for your help.
      now i just need to try and unfold it all to try and create some 2d files to laser cut using the finger joints.
      we never seem able to match up all 6 sides of an object when using a line cutting programm

      big thanks

    • RE: [Plugin] Slots 4 Tabs

      hi i have tried yours and it works great

      but my file does not, i have tried typing in and changing to decimal in ruby but i get this:

      $kyyu_s4t = 3.mm
      0.118110236220472
      Error: #<ArgumentError: comparison of Length with nil failed>
      C:/PROGRA~1/Google/GOOGLE~2/Plugins/ky_Slots_4_Tabs (v1.0).rb:35:in ==' C:/PROGRA~1/Google/GOOGLE~2/Plugins/ky_Slots_4_Tabs (v1.0).rb:35:in kyyu_Slots_4_Tabs'
      C:/PROGRA~1/Google/GOOGLE~2/Plugins/ky_Slots_4_Tabs (v1.0).rb:250
      C:/PROGRA~1/Google/GOOGLE~2/Plugins/ky_Slots_4_Tabs (v1.0).rb:250:in `call'

      i tried changing it in the plugin in notepad but it didn't make any difference

      attached is my file, maybe i am missing some simple step?
      i need to work to 3mm
      cheers ashley
