    • RE: [Plugin] Roof.rb

      The SKP you provided has 2 roof faces at z>0 [faces at z0 don't work].
      These 2 are identical in edge sizes and orientations/direction.
      The one on the right takes a hipped roof OK, but the one on the left fails with an error message.
      This is weird.
      However, if you follow the advice in the error message on that problem face. and erase one edge and remake t the new face will also take a hipped roof OK.
      Something in your model's database is skewed.
      But it is fixable...

      I use this usually

      tb.show if tb.get_last_state.abs == 1 # TB_VISIBLE/NEVER
      

      Has the same result...

    • RE: Julia Eneroth's Viewport Resizer / SketchUp 2023

      @HornOxx

      I use AutoHotkey for many things and it's easy enough to customize once you come to grips with its foibles...
      I don't auto-resize viewports, but Rich knows how, and perhaps he can share his example script, or point you/us to someone else's ?

    • RE: Transfer my plugins from SU23 to S24

      @errror404
      Probably No.

      If you have SketchUcation tool's ExtensionStore³ you can make a Bundle of the extensions you have in the previous version.
      The in the newer version use that Bundle to add/update all of your extensions in that version - using the newest version available.
      Unfortunately it only works for extensions you have installed from SketchUcation.

      Any extensions you got direct from a developer's site need re-downloading and installing individually.

      Any extension you got from the Extension Warehouse must be re-downloaded / installed.
      Their bulk update is no longer available.

      SketchUcation ExtensionStore³ also notifies you when updates of your current extensions are available, and lets you install them, individually or in bulk.

      You can copy the contents of your Plugins folder from the current to the newer version - however, many developers update their code to suit newer versions, so errors might arise with this method, especially if you haven't update extensions fastidiously.
      Don't copy over the su_xxx extensions and folders as these are shipped with each version and you might overwrite a newer version...

    • RE: [Plugin] PipeAlongPath

      @rv1974

      TubeAlongPath has been deprecated forever - PipeAlongPath replaces it.
      It is 16 years old and expecting a free plugin to be updated is unrealistic.

      I can't access any of them in your linked RAR file, but I see that ExtrudeAlongPath is 14 years old, and isn't even one of my plugins anymore, having been absorbed into my Extrude Toolset using some other name[s]...

      These tools never worked on multiple paths and this late request is unlikely to be fruitful - 😞

      @robint

      I made some tweaks and now it works almost too fast in newer SketchUp versions !
      But in v2017 it is still quite slow...

      I'll sleep on it and look at again tomorrow...

    • RE: [Plugin] PipeAlongPath

      @rv1974

      I can't stop ExtrudeAlongPath being 'mine' - as I wrote it.
      However, if you want to fix it then you have my permission to edit it.
      Note that it is so old it does not comply with any of the current good coding principles, and even uses some unacceptable $xxx global variables...
      That's why it was superseded...

      And please note that criticizing my newer Extrude Toolset scores you no plus points at all !

      @rv1974

      I just tested PipeAlongPath and it works fine in 2024 - what's your issue...
      Do you have the newest v2.2 - but it is 10 years old !

      ExtrudeAlongPath - what is that ? It's not part of the current Extrude Toolset and it's not in the PluginStore...

    • RE: Sketchucation Tools 5.0.4

      An updated SketchUcation RBZ is being tested and will be published shortly - this should avoid this error when one of Fredo's [or TT's] extensions is only partially uninstalled and the VERSION is therefore unavailable...

      https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=Re_Glue
      It now allows multiple pre selected component-instances, but still only one preselected face.
      These are glued to the face [is possible], any errors or unsuitable instances are reported in the Ruby Console...

      @gullfo

      I was think of that...
      Since very few have reported an issue it must be a rare RB file you have that's causing this issue.
      BUT can we get v5.0.2 out first.
      Then I'll PM you something later this week.
      Thanks for your help.

    • RE: SCFLicense: Extension Licensing on Sketchucation

      @brittico

      Your Firewall has a list of sites it prevents access to - a 'blacklist'.
      There is a 'whitelist' of sites that are allowed.
      Manage your Firewall and add *.sketchucation.com to that...

    • RE: SCFLicense: Extension Licensing on Sketchucation

      @QZHOU

      You need to install the latest versions of the extension, LibFredo6 and the SketchUcation toolset [for the licensing].

      That error message says the signature-file cannot be read.
      You may have changed your computer's name, which invalidates it.
      It suggests you open the signature-file's folder and delete it.
      After a restart a new signature file is made to suit the current setup.
      The validate your license[s]...

      Note that errors like this can also occur if your computer's name contains non-ASCII characters - going against the advise of Windows.
      I suspect that you are Chinese - so have you got any special-characters in your computer-name ?
      This can break licensing setups like this...
      Try renaming your computer following these rules...

      A-Za-z0-9 - are OK

      The following are not OK...

      period (.)
      backslash (\)
      forward slash (/)
      colon (:)
      asterisk (*)
      question mark (?)
      quotation mark (")
      less than sign (<)
      greater than sign (>)
      vertical bar (|)

      And ay other special characters or non-ASCII foreign alphabet letters will also cause issues,

    • RE: [Plugin Library] LibFredo6 - v15.6c - 10 Dec 25

      @Fer18
      Your posts makes little sense !

      If you need LibFredo6 download/install it from the PluginStore.

      If you need some other Plugin [aka an Extension] then post in its thread - OR explain yourself better - we are not mind-readers...

      Get the latest version from the SketchUcation PluginStore

      or why not use the AutoInstall feature of the 'SketchUcation Plugin Store' toolset's dialog...
