It might be a relatively easy edit to fix it.
But the Ruby Console errors are needed...

RE: [plugin] Fixed Area
The author no longer supports any of his extensions.
This one is almost 14 years old !
Are you sure you are following the directions ?
With the Ruby Console open, before using it, do you see any messages ? -
RE: Seamless tiling
The joints need to be whole or a half [or zero]. At the moment the short lengths of joint don't add up to a whole joint, hence the oddity when the texture repeats.

RE: [Plugin] Triangulate Points
Version 2.0 is available from the PluginsStore.
https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=TIG_points_cloud_triangulation
It fixes issues with delauney3.rb using Constants in away that newer SketchUp versions Ruby chokes on, t also includes some tweaks of the main code - Layers v. Tags etc, and the RBZ is now signed... -
RE: [Plugin Library] LibFredo6 - v15.3a - 02 Apr 25
@gkont1983
How have you tried to install Libredo6 ?
The two ways are:
Download its RBZ from the PluginStore, then use the Extension manager to Install it. After that restart SketchUp to sync everything.
Or use the SketchUcation toolset ExtensionStore dialog to find it, click to auto-install it - sidestepping the RBZ download. After that restart SketchUp to sync everything.
You need the SketchUcation toolset installed for the SCF licensing etc - especially of many of Fredo's extensions.
So I recommend you download its RBZ from the PluginStore, then use the Extension manager to Install it. After that restart SketchUp to sync everything.
After that always use the ExtensionStore dialog to install future extensions - it's vital for licensing, but it offers lots of other perks too... -
RE: [Plugin] 3D Text Editor
I suspect you need to reinstall this extension [and perhaps some others?]
Extensions don't automatically 'port' over from an earlier version of SketchUp when you install a newer one -
although v2025 does have a new extension to let you do that -
but it's not 100% foolproof, and reinstalling them manually does let you do some tidying up and housekeeping, to keep your extensions 'lean-and-mean'... -
RE: [Plugin] SectionCutFace
Please read its usage notes.
You must have just one section-plane selected.
The right-click menu then offers you the tool with options as appropriate.
It does not appear in any other menus or have a toolbar...
You need to read its usage notes to understand how it works and to get the results that suit you... -
RE: [Plugin] 3D Text Editor
Basic 3dText is not 'editable', you need an extension like this -

RE: [Plugin] Pic2Shape - v1.1a - 20 Mar 25 (Image Contouring)
Feel free to cannibalize parts of my ImageTrimmer, which smooths jaggedness...
You pass the edges' collected vertex points, and set an epsilon factor... thus.
### epsilon is a float perhaps < 0.2 ### perhaps it's set by the user ? experiment for best default... ### the vertices are collected from the current outline[s] points = vertices.collect{|v| v.position } simplified_curve = douglas_peucker(points, epsilon) ### might return [] simplified_curve << simplified_curve[0] if simplified_curve[0] ### so it 'loops' edges = some_entities.add_curve(simplified_curve) if simplified_curve[0] ### sort out edges' faces, hide edges etc as desired
the 'douglas_peucker()' method is this...
### http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramer-Douglas-Peucker_algorithm ### http://en.wiki.mcneel.com/default.aspx/McNeel/ PolylineSimplification.html ### def douglas_peucker(points, epsilon) ### return points if points.length < 3 ### Find the point with the maximum distance dmax = 0 index = 0 line = [points.first, points.last] 1.upto(points.length - 2) { |i| d = points[i].distance_to_line(line) if d > dmax index = i dmax = d end } ### If max distance is greater than epsilon, recursively simplify result = [] if dmax >= epsilon ### Recursive call recResults1 = ImageTrimmer.douglas_peucker(points[0..index], epsilon) recResults2 = ImageTrimmer.douglas_peucker(points[index...points.length], epsilon) ### Build the result list result = recResults1[0...-1] + recResults2 else result = [points.first, points.last] end#if ### return result ### end #def

RE: [Plugin] Pic2Shape - v1.1a - 20 Mar 25 (Image Contouring)
This is worthy successor to my oldie ImageTrimmer - much faster and with better in-built toolset...
Can't wait to try it ! -
RE: [Plugin] Door-Lintel Update + Window-Sill
The linked post contains a ZIP file posted a few days ago

Which can be converted to an RBZ by changing its filetype suffix.
It worked in v2024, so should also work in v2025 ? -
RE: SCFLicense: Extension Licensing on Sketchucation
@masmoosa
What extension are you referring to ?
There's insufficient info for us to help you.
Please give us a clear description of what you are trying to do, and what problems you are experiencing... -
RE: SketchUp thumbnail not showing up on Mac
Have you actually installed the app properly ?
Running it from the downloaded app's installer can work, but it can also have weird side-effects like this... -
RE: [Plugin Library] LibFredo6 - v15.3a - 02 Apr 25
When you say you 'migrated' the plugins, did you install them from scratch using the ExtensionStore³ dialog, or from RBZs downloaded from the PluginStore ?
What are the 'warning messages' ? Knowing these would be most helpful...PS: Don't give your email address in a public forum, some spam-bot may have already scraped it up. I've obfuscated it a bit, but you might want to do it yourself.
Conversations through forum posts are the most effective, Chats [PMs] can be used if you are providing confidential stuff, emails are a last resort - for licensing problems etc... -
RE: SketchUp 2025. The styles toolbar disappears every time I close it.
Things like forgotten toolbars etc are a sign that preferences aren't getting saved - usually because preference files don't have the correct permissions.
This is usually because SketchUp wasn't installed properly [on Windows]. This can be fixed without having to reinstall SketchUp, do this...
Close SketchUp
Find its installer exe file - usually in your Downloads folder [or get another copy]
Select that exe file's icon, right-click > context-menu > Run as administrator...
In the dialog which opens choose 'Repair'.
When it's done restart SketchUp and arrange your toolbars as desired.
Close SketchUp.
Open SketchUp - is there any improvement is the remembering of preferences ?Other things like installed extensions should be unaffected.
Double-clicking an installer's exe file to 'Run' it is not the same as doing it as outlined above - even if your user-account has admin-powers...

RE: How to remove non-existing but listed Material Libraries?
It is not completely hardcoded.
When SketchUp installs it makes a set of default folders e.g.
C:\ProgramData\SketchUp\SketchUp 2024\SketchUp\Materials
is one of those, containing the materials in subfolders that you no longer want.
If you delete it completely or rename it - say Materials!
Then it shouldn't load next time.
However, if you reinstall or repair v2024 it will be recreated.
BUT when you run SketchUp it is recreated As Materials BUT it is an empty folder.
You can also delete selected subfolders, if you still want some of the default materials to be available. -
RE: [Plugin] TIG-Smart_offset
The latest version works fine for me too, across all newer SketchUp versions.
What is your exact issue ? -
RE: [Plugin] Smooth Zoom 2.1.0 - 24 October 2021
So that error seems to relate to a missing directory or file.
You need to wait for the author to resolve this .
Sorry. -
RE: [Plugin] Smooth Zoom 2.1.0 - 24 October 2021
You need to install it into v2025 from the RBZ - with errors.
Then close SketchUp and find the RB file in your Plugins folder, open it it with Notepad++.exe and do the edit as outlined above...
The installed file is C:/Users/YOURUSERNAME/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2025/SketchUp/Plugins/ams_SmoothZoom/extension_manager.rb -
RE: [Plugin] Smooth Zoom 2.1.0 - 24 October 2021
@kurdoc69
Read my reply above yours, it outlines how to do a manual fix on the RB file, until the author responds.
