Fredo Plugin issues

I have the licensed bundle of Fredo Tools (specifically ROunded Corners etc) However when I activate it, I don't get the icons on the toolbar. IT just shows up blank. This is a new one on me, cuz it seemed to work before. Any thought?

[Rich O Brien]

Can you run....

...and paste output here

I don't see that option on my menu.
hmmm.

[Rich O Brien]

Therein lies the problem....

Update Sketchucation Tools

https://sketchucation.com/plugin/696-sketchucationtools

Update Libfredo

https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=LibFredo6

Use the ExtensionStore to update.

[david_h]

checked and rechecked and reinstalled the updates. I had done so before I threw up my hands and cried out into the Sketchup Wilderness.

Still no go. I just think the icons have loaded into a different folder than wehre the actual extension is. When I do the store update it gives me two folder options for auto update and I choosed them both cuz I don't know which one is the goodest.

C:?USers/Name/Appdata/Roaming/sketchup.. . .etc

Or C:/PRogramData/Sketchup etc.

restarted SU> Got the menu you described. Pulled up the report here:

Problem Solved! I'm just so so happy

[Rich O Brien]

Sketchucation Tools 4.3.0 is the latest.

Your install path should be...

...anything else I'd ignore unless your adept in the dark arts or a glutton for punishment

Well now. . .RoundCorner isn't even loading at all and when I try to reinstall. . .I get an error message.

Could you try with the Sketchucation ExtensionStore.

I don't understand why it fails with the SU Extension Manager.

[david_h]

trying now. . .but we'll see. Stand by.

Thank you,

D

]I was able to download from the Extension store. I installed it first on the "AppData>roaming>sketchup...etc." place .

No go. I got a zip error.

Next tried to load it and install to the "C: ProgramFiles>Sketchup. . .etc) place

(Both options were offered)

Neither worked. Even after several starts and restarts. as you see . ..other tools are loading fine.[attachment=0]Capture.JPG[/attachment

[david_h]

any further thoughts on this? When I install to the AppData.. .etc. folder I get the 'cannot unzip" error message. If I install to a custom plugins folder Round Corner installs but the toolbar is missing on the icons, and with each start up I have to re-install anyway.

Very Frustrating.

thanks for the help in advance.

[Rich O Brien]

If you repair your SketchUp install by running the installer.exe via right click > Run as Admin.

See if that restores your permissions to write o the appdata..... folder

Next tried to load it and install to the "C: ProgramFiles>Sketchup. . .etc) place

Never to this place. That's reserved for special cases.

[david_h]

Thanks R O'B. I'll give that the ol' college try.
