Dear TIG,
Know you must be so sick of answering questions on this...
So here's where I'm at:
The Image must be imported as an Image, NOT a texture. - TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
It must be a PNG. - TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
It must have a transparency alpha-channel. - TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
The background pixels to be removed must on that. - TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
ALL other pixels must be 100% opaque. - TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
If they have any transparency at all they will also be removed ! - NOTED ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
Save the PNG and import it as an Image into your SKP. - TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
Select it. - TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
Choose ImageTrimmer on the Tools menu. TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
Answer the prompts... NOPE - NO PROMPTS, HOWEVER, I GET THE THE LINE, DAT AND PNG FILE IN THE SUBFOLDER (SEE ATTACHMENTS) ![:confused: 😕](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f615.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
Run with the Ruby Console open to see if there are any error-massages...
HERE'S WHAT I GET: ![:open_mouth: 😮](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f62e.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)

Java installed and enabled on your computer [the usual default]. - TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)
Also check that the .jar file-type is set to open with Java [execute] and NOT to open in your [de]compression application - some hijack various file extensions that are used by things like Java and stop them executing... - TICK ![:+1: 👍](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f44d.png?v=3cnphti9lj4)

The only slightly untoward event is that my virus protector is giving me a sequence of 3 warnings (I've attached 2). I hit the "Allow" every time (even when I've told it not to prompt me for 30 minutes it still pops up).
Windows 10, Sketchup Pro 2020
Have attempted on 2 other png images and same sequence.
Please help...
