[Plugin Library] LibFredo6 - v9.5h - 13 Feb 20

[markvladi]

After installing LibFredo6_v9.4b, an error appears.

[Dave R]

Did you try restarting SketchUp?

[markvladi]

Yes. After selecting a template, the Bugsplat window crashes. The button "View report data" is not active. After removing the "Fredo6_! LibFredo6 folders" and "Fredo6_! LibFredo6.rb folders" from the plugin directory, SketchUp18 opens. When upgrading to SketchUp19, the same thing happens.

[Dave R]

When you installed SketchUp from the downloaded installer, did you right click on it and choose Run as administrator from the Context menu?

[markvladi]

Yes.

sh: /Users/Jonathan/Documents/Animator Videos/ffmpeg-4.2.2.cpgz: Permission denied
mac high sierra 10.13.6 I've followed countless tutorials to get ffmpeg installed properly, starting with libfredo6 for animator in sketchup. After downloading the zip and or package file from ffmpeg.org, I don't get the same results from the step by step tutorials. Even in terminal I'm getting unsuccessful responses to line commands at a certain point. I found animator very user friendly and edited a great technical video very efficiently. I'm stuck not being able to generate an mp4 video file to share on my website. Please help

Did you see my answer in the Animator subforum?

I give a link to the latest version of FFmpeg for Mac.
- This points to a zip file.
- Extract the file 'ffmpeg' located in the zip archive under 'bin'
- put this file somewhere on your Mac where it's convenient to you
- In the Animator video, Click on the button 'locate FFMpeg' and point to this local file.

On SU 2018 the new update (with LibFredo v9.5b) is not preserving the guides.
(Correction) posted in wrong forum, this comment was meant for Fredo Guides.

Could you open the Ruby Console when you protect guides and then when you delete them, in order to see if there are error messages. Thanks.

Does the problem happens with any model?

interestingly, no it does not. starting a fresh model the plugin works fine.
but here is something that pops up on the ruby consol when i start the sketchup file where it doesn't work.

[fredo6]

Could you post or PM me the model.

Because of this error, the process of protection does not start and thus is not active for this model.

Hi Fredo,
I just updated libfredo and it seems to have caused an issue with Curvizard.
Any curve and any action creates stange edges between points.

Many thanks for signaling the problem.

Definitely a major bug, which I fixed in LibFredo6 v9.5c, just published.

Thanks Fredo for being so proactive and responding so quickly on all your plugins. On my phone at the moment so will confirm as soon as I'm able.

[Box]

Thanks again Fredo.

[penumbra]

Hi Fredo
Many thanks for looking at the issues with my file and FredoGuides. I sent you a separate PM with a WeTransfer link. Hopeful the file can shed some light and provide the necessary feedback.

Hi Fredo!
What a wonderful set of plugins you have done! I am grateful to you, your work is sparing me loads of time!!!

I'd have a question: is there any chance your tool "area report by material" could take into account ALSO the faces which are painted from the outside of a group/component? Since I work a lot with DCs this would be a greatly useful add-on..

Thanks in advance!

[fredo6]

This is a good idea, and I think this is manageable.

This is now available in FredoTools::ReportLabelArea v3.2a, with

• FredoTools v3.8b
• LibFredo6 v9.5e

[rv1974]

For some reason I can't install libfredo 9.5.e on SU2020 (win10 64 bit)

[TIG]

The Lib installs fine for me [same OS etc] and it is fully signed etc...

[rv1974]

Manual extract to plugins folder solved the issue.
