Thanks for all your help, TIG.
I now see that if I had read prior posts more carefully I would have found the solution to my problem.
I began the repair by editing each file by hand. When I realized ALL the supporting files required the same change from \ to /, I took your advice and used the Sketucation archive loader.
Everything works great now!
Thanks for the feedback, TIG.
The first two times I attempted to install K2WS I used the method of changing the .zip extension to .rbz. I got the file error. Tonight, I manually un-zipped the file and put the folder K2WS_Tools and the loadK2WS_Tools.rb file directly into my Plug-Ins folder.
I verified all files and folders retained the same order as in the .zip file, just as you indicated. Attached is a jpg file showing the content and structure of my Plug-In folder.
I still get the same load error.
I'm running a Mac with OSX 10.7.5. Permissions for Plug-In folder and all contained files and folders is write & read.
Anyone having problems loading K2WS_Tools with Sketchup 2014? I keep getting an error message on my Mac:
"Error Loading File loadK2WS_Tools.rb
Error: #<LoadError: cannot load such file -- K2WS_Tools\K2_ToolsLoader.rb>
I've downloaded the .zip file twice tonight from the SketchUCation site. No luck either time. I used the load extensions option from SketchUps preferences. It told me each time the load was successful, but when I re-open SketchUp I get the error message.
Any help would be appreciated. This is a great set of tools!!
Dave, you were correct about the permission issue.
After I posted my note, I did some digging around on the internet and saw that permissions can be a problem for some of the plugins. I could see the file where the preferences were being kept could not get updated.
I recently got a new laptop and it has Windows 7 installed. So I did some more web surfing and figured out how to get the permissions set properly. Basically, I had to make myself the owner of the CREATOR OWNER group.
All works well now!
Thanks for the really nice plug-in. I use it often. It saves me a lot of time.
I just downloaded Sketchup 2013 on both my Mac and PC. The tool still works just fine on the Mac, but I've run into an issue on the PC. When making a M/T joint, for instance, it won't save any edits to the parameters. And it won't do anything if I click "Save". If I click "Cancel", at least it lets me put in the mortise depth parameter, but then it won't do anything after that.
Like I said, no issue on the Mac!
Wonder!
