jckii Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 I just downloaded a recommended ed collection of plug-ins for use with VW 10.5, placed it in the plug-in folder, restarted, but they still do not show up in my workspace editor. Any suggestions? [ 11-09-2004, 02:29 PM: Message edited by: jckii ] Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 Did you download these from vectordepot.com or another website? Quote Link to comment
jckii Posted November 9, 2004 Author Share Posted November 9, 2004 Yes indeed - from vectordepot.com. See my previous post and subsequent replies: http://techboard.nemetschek.net/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=12;t=004229 Quote Link to comment
jfmarch Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 some of these appear with their own names, either as folders or tools in the workspace editor. you have to carefully look for them when in edit mode... Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 I went and downloaded the Shamsul Adnan plug-ins and put them into my VW10.5 plug-ins folder and I am able to see them in the Workspace Editor They are MENU items and are located in a folder called Shamsul's. To provide access to them it will probably be best if you add a new appropriately named menu to your Menu Bar. When in doubt about where an added plug-in is located you can check its category (& therefore folder in the workspace editor) by going into the CREATE PLUG IN dialog box under SCRIPTS on the ORGANISE MENU. Scroll down until you locate it and then hit the CATEGORY button. Voila - all will be revealed. Then exit without making any changes to the plug-in. Quote Link to comment
jckii Posted November 9, 2004 Author Share Posted November 9, 2004 Mike - did you drop the plug-ins "loose" into your 10.5 plug-ins folder, or did you leave them in the "GDP Folder" in which they were downloaded and "unstuffed"?? I am on a Mac - maybe this has something to do with it. Still getting nowhere.... Quote Link to comment
G-Pang Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 1 ? Drop it loose. 2 ? Modify your workspace , add on the new menu/command 3 ? Apply Short key to those menu/command 4 ? Strongly advise to download Katerina's plug-in to complete your classses tools collection. G-Pang Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Jckii I am also on a mac and yes they must be dropped in loose. Maybe something went wrong with the 'expanding'. Try getting the latest free version of Stuffit Expander and download and decompress them again. After you have dropped them loose into the plug-ins folder make sure they are there and that the category is correct before trying to add them with the WORKSPACE EDITOR. Quote Link to comment
