Flextools issues Mac OS Sketchup 2024

heyo since installed Flextools earlier this week I’ve had a number of strange behaviors related to that extension and overflowing to Sketchup since:

Sketchup behaviors

  • updating a scene causes the scene to behave strangely: whatever scene you click on subsequently takes on the properties of the previous scene but it doesn’t rewrite the scene i.e. if you click again on another unaltered scene and then back to the last scene it displays as intended

Flextools behaviors

  • flex tools components not moving on axes; since closing and re-opening my file if I try to move a flex tools component it will not lock to an axis…even though the axes light up when holding an arrow key the component will not hold on that path
  • walls failing to heal and/or cut when moving a component

Anyone else experiencing these issues or have any suggestions? Much appreciated

here’s an example of the scenes issue (now that I’ve figured out how to do screen captures)

I can’t say that I’m seeing any of this. I’m on Ventura not Sonoma, but otherwise an M1 Max and SU 2024, and FlexTools 2.15.3.

hmm thanks for chiming Robert…as far as the camera/scenes issues is concerned I think I figured out the root of the cause. I had turned off camera location in the “properties to save” area of the scenes tab as I didn’t want the view to shift at all in layout. However I don’t understand that would affect other scenes…

No problem with FlexTools. I have tha same OS version as you.
You should consider that FlexTools components are glued to a face ans could have different axes (blue axe is perpendicular to the glued face) as your model see this…

ok, hmm mine is functioning somewhat differently…also on reopening my model the existing flex tools components no longer cut through walls if moved.

You can refresh the cut


Upload your model in order to test what is happening…
