Hi  
Sorry I am a beginner at Shetchup - Mac - 2017 pro

I have have install the Materials Tool by ThomThom (it removes materials). It is showing in the Extension manages, but I cannot find it in any of the drop down tabs to use it.  
Where do I find it or make it, or how to make it work.

Or any I totally missing something???

Probably.

Did you also install the required TT\_Lib2-2.7.0?

Did you check to see that it is enabled in Window\>Extension Manager?

Not all that unusual.

That was going to be my next suggestion.

Those things happened to me too, in most cases restarting the whole thing should be just fine. That’s the first thing I do actually, when things don’t tend to work the way I do 😜
