Hi guys

thanks for getting back to me, Im really new to the ruby scripts, specially to install them as well. But as soon as Dylan said 'Is this the only Ruby you have installed?' I remembered that i was trying to install another ruby script called 'skin' which didnt work, so I had a look at the directory of the ruby scripts folder

Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/tools

I deleted the other ruby script called 'skin' than fired up sketchUp the 'Soap and Skin and Bubble' ruby script finally worked. At last its fantastic. But it seemed it had a conflict with another ruby script.

thanks for your help

Not much help I know, but your skp works ok on my Mac also.

Is this the only Ruby you have installed?

First time using soap skin & bubble, or any ruby script for that matter. I managed to put all the files in the right places to get the Soap Skin & Bubble up and running in sketchup 7 on a mac. But it keeps crashing sketchup, I get to the stage when I select the line work then press skin, it allows me to enter number of segments than when it starts to divide it crashes. I also tried it on sketchup 6 and it crashes also, and its not the particular shape Im trying to skin, its any shape.

Let me know if anyone is having issues with this, or how to resolve it. I contacted the author, but he is on holiday at the moment so it will be 3 weeks till he gets back to me.

It looks like a fantastic tool

many thanks
