    • RE: FredoScale Compatibility issues with SU 2026

      If you open the Ruby Console while invoking the tool it might provide clues.

      Also, sharing if you are Windows/Mac.

      I presume you are using recent updated versions of both Libfredo and FredoScale?

      I can invoke the TAB panel without issue on SU2026 with no errors in Ruby Console.

    • RE: Ain't Sketchup to rhyme with the trends?

      @majid said in Ain't Sketchup to rhyme with the trends?:

      modeling logic behind the beloved SketchUp is too old-school

      Or the user has outgrown the the abilities of the application.

      Every commercial app has a threshold of what it can do. It is targeted to its market/audience.

      On the opposite side if you look at Blender. Because of it's open source nature and community contributions its flourishes naturally in directions steered more organically.

      SketchUp, to me, is a form of transportation to help me get to a destination. Along the way I might use various modes of transport to get where I'm going.

      It is easy get frustrated because it lacks certain features. But a bloated app can also lead to frustration when trying to find features hidden behind nested menu or panels.

      I would love if SketchUp was more open regarding Roadmaps and planned features. Rather than this current approach. But there's no perfect app or approach.

    • RE: Transferring License From Mac to Pc?

      If you are referring to a license for extensions we sell. Then yes you can.

      Licenses have a number of seats, usually 3, so you can activate on up to 3 devices at a time.

      You can manage seats at https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php

    • RE: SCFLicense: Extension Licensing on Sketchucation

      This looks more like an issue with Libfredo and FredoGhost than our licensing system.

      Maybe ping Fredo on his FredoGhost thread

    • RE: Rhino vs SU

      The app you use is simply your instrument. Find the one you like to play.

      SketchUp can't be Rhino-esque but Rhino can add SketchUp like vibes. You get alot more bang for your buck out of Rhino and its also a perpetual license.

    • RE: help needed with a push

      It is possible if you use Fredo's Joint PushPull extension which you have installed.

      I presume it is the faces selected in the image that you want to push inwards to the depth of the already inset area?

      There's lots of ways to tackle it but since you have JPP installed that probably a good start to play around with.

    • RE: [Plugin][$] FredoCorner - v2.7a - 31 Mar 24

      @Gent

      I want to stop working on the Windows 10 operating system and upgrade to version 11. Will the licenses for your plugins that I bought be relevant? Will I be able to use them on the new operating system?

      Yes, they will work. You will need to release seats at https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php because if the device is the same but the OS changes then the licensing will see it as a new device.

      quelle galère

      Patience is a virtue. Having an app have backwards compatibility along with supporting multiple different GPUs and CPUs etc is challenging for a single developer.

      @Rich-O-Brien Thanks Rich. I thought I had done something that "broke" things.

      No, it us. There a new feature in the latest update we are testing. It's not visible to user accounts that are not Admins so we don't see the issue others are experiencing.

      Sorry about that.
