I wrote this script to

Perhaps what is in it and is not correct.
But Ruby is well aware of it, let's

string = File.join (File.dirname (FILE), "Моя папка"))

string = encode_to_cp1251 (string)

Dir.mkdir (string) -> works fine

And as Sketchup 5 works great

A Sketchup 6 7 8 only read but can not green triangle icon

Encodes from cp1251 to utf-8
And a coding of utf-8 cp1251 (Cyrillic)

In SketchUp 5 everything works fine

encode_utf-8_cp1251

Problem in "Cyrillic"

"Cyrillic" in utf-8

Sketchup 5 and reads and stores

Skutchup 6 7 8 only reads but does not save.

Skutchup 6 7 8 reads "Cyrillic" in utf-8

And when you save what encoding uses (cp1252 cp866??????)

SketchUp 5
path = "C:\Users\Admin\Documents\моя модель.skp"
encode_to_utf-8 path
model.save path -> works
Sketchup.open_file path -> works

SketchUp 8
path = "C:\Users\Admin\Documents\моя модель.skp"
encode_to_utf-8 path
model.save path -> does not work
Sketchup.open_file path -> works

What encoding supports Sketchup 8 to save the model?

Fixed

1. Icon opens files SketchUp
2. Icon imports files in SketchUp model

I added a tutorial to this plugin as I think it is an essential tool in SketchUp.

Hi!
Thanks Rich O Brien

PS:I do not speak English so it's hard to explain all the functions of the plug

The script selects the line or face.

The first icon >> click on it - and only the lines stand out >> again click on it >> disables script

The second icon >> click on it - and distinguished only by persons >> again click on it deactivates the script >>

It selects only the face or edge or hidden lines

Check PM

Yes

@michaelv said:

Also the "add face circle" context menu doesn't seem to do anything. Is it active? What is it supposed to do?
I can trigger it picking one edge of an arc or circle, but then nothing happens.

I just forgot to remove it.

But it works, watch the video archive
video_2.zip

@mitcorb said:

For me, it appears that I must press the arrow keys within say 5 seconds to get the results.

No. While you are using a script and did not select another tool or until set again the starting point of the circle - you can use the arrow to the left, right, up, and the bottom

@mitcorb said:

I can't go back to a circle and use the arrow keys. Is this correct?

Yes.

@boilingsnow said:

Should I move the mouse to a certain position before I press the up arrow key?

NO

@boilingsnow said:

I'm using sketchup 8.0.3117 and win XP with a german keyboard. But I don't think it has anything to do with the keyboard, right?

I think the problem is the keyboard.

@boilingsnow said:

Did you test it in Sketchup 8? I'm sorry I still can't get it working.

@boilingsnow said:

Am I doing anything wrong?

In previous versions it was impossible to move the mouse, then press worked.

I fixed it in version krug-11.zip

Updated the script in the first message (krug-11.zip)

@boilingsnow said:

These two options don't work in my sketchup 8...

Updated the script in the first message (krug-10.zip)

string 133 ? split(",") ?

which string gets the variable msg ???

puts msg.to_s

The problem may be due to coding.
Try to remove this.(and in html)
