Just in case could you open the Default Parameters dialog and uncheck or check this option

@Blns

Can you go to the Default Parameters dialog and uncheck the option

@_dpdp_

Do you use custom textures, based on your PNG files?

If so, this is the issue, as these file need to be transferred. The issue is that the materials are stored in the model if they have been used once in the model, and not purged thereafter.

@youppi

Thanks.

Did it happen suddenly? or after you did an installation?

Before calling the Quick Launcher of Joint PushPull, can you leave the Ruby open to see if there are errors.

@youppi

Did you do anything special before it happens?

Could you invoke the menu Window > LibFredo6 Settings.... > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation support, to see what is the status of your plugins.

It's a bug, which I'll fix.

Are you copying the skp file from one machine to another one?

And if so, do you see the textures in the Material browser?

@yanrothwell

Could you open the Ruby console and copy paste the following command, and then type Enter:

UI.openURL F6_SUClock::Project.get_tmpdir

This will open the temp directory, in which you have files with extension .txt and a form like XXX__YYY.txt.
Just erase them. It seems that one of them is corrupted.

Erasing them should not impact your SUClock data.

Then restart Sketchup.

@yanrothwell

Did you install SU2024 with 'Run as dministrator'?

@ACLSU

You should first upgrade to the latest versions:

• LibFredo6 v14.5a
• Sketchucation ExtensionStore v4.4.1

@pipinek

What is the path of this 'third folder'.

@pipinek

The files and folders seems to be present.

So, there is something messing up the load of plugins.

I have never seen this message:

Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb can not be loaded because an extension loader file with the same name was previously loaded.

What is exactly the role of this gem of the Sketchup Extension Manager?

Could it be that some pieces of my extensions are also present in another directory?. Can you check what you see in:

• C:/ProgramData/SketchUp/SketchUp 2024/SketchUp/Plugins
• C:/Program Files/SketchUp/SketchUp 2024/Tools

With all the plugins you have, it's going difficult to troubleshoot the loading of extensions.

The information on Fredo Layport is maintained on the Plugin Home Page of Fredo Layport. This is also where you can download the RBZ file.

IMPORTANT: Fredo Layport is available for SU2023 and above.

• LibFredo6: v14.5a or above
• Sketchup version: SU2023 and above
• Platform: Windows and Mac OSX
• Usage: free

Fredo Layport helps to visualize in Sketchup the rectangle area (Layport) which will be displayed in a Layout document for a Scene based on its current camera.

The main features are:

• Create and manage Layports of any size and assign them to scenes. The Layport dimensions can be extracted from existing Layout documents.

• Center Objects at any nested level within a Layport, with margins and optional auto-centering.

• Assign paper scale to 2D Scenes , so that they can be printed at scale

• QuickPrint function to generate a PDF for printing a selection of scenes, with a basic presentation, and the respect of paper scale, if defined. You can also generate explicitly a Layout document and / or a PDF document.

The help is integrated in the extension, as a Quick Card.

Here is the Quick Card as a PDF

@pipinek said in Fredo6 extensions (none of them) not loading SU 2024:

Is this about the list of files and folders in the SU 2024 Plugins folder?

Yes. Do you have a list or a screenshot?

@pipinek

It would be good to have the list of files and folders in your Plugins folder.

Also, you said that it has happened 'suddenly'. Did you remember if you did something just before?

@carlosmgilp

Thanks for the request, which I understand.

Currently, ToolsOnSurface does not use geodesic or any particular geometry-defined path on the surface. It just tries to go from the origin to the end with a cut path taken from the plane passing by the origin and ed, and roughly perpendicular to the surface met between the point (kind of average).

This is therefore approximate and error-prone, since this depends on the surface itself, which may be convoluted..

The price of my licensed plugins will increase as of 3 Jun 2024.

• Those at $12 ==> $15 (for Premium $7 --> $9)
• Bundle at $40 ==> $50 (for Premium $24 --> $30)
• Those at $25 ==> $30 (for Premium $15 --> $18)

In addition, ThruPaint will become licensed as of 01 Jun 2024, with a price at $20 ($12 for Premium members).
