Do you have the current version of LibFredo6 installed?

As well as the obvious issues like installing the required LibFredo6, have you also installed SketchUp properly ?

You must select the SketchUp installer exe file;s icon, right-click \> context-menu \> “Run as administrator”  
This ensures that all permissions etc are set up properly.  
Installing in any other way can cause various unexpected issues…

You might not need to uninstall and reinstall…  
Close SketchUp and run the installer as explained above.  
When prompted choose ‘Repair’…

Try again…

PS: As Dan alludes… SketchUp Make is for non-commercial use, so your ‘work’ needs to be appropriate to allow you to legally use Make - otherwise you need Pro…

Thanks for your quick replies guys, first of all i don’t use sketchup for commercial use. i only use it to create objects for my student work no commercial use so i don’t need the Pro version. sorry for the misunderstanding

My LibFredo6 version is the latest 7.4c

I also noticed another issue, the SU protrator don’t rotate any objects! Is there any link to the Fredo6 plugins issue?

I have a GTX970 graphics card on my computer with the latest drivers.

@TIG : thanks for your tips, i gonna try it, I’ll feedback to you soon as possible

Regards

Are you referring to the yellow Protractor tool?

It makes a difference. The Yellow Protractor doesn’t rotate things The Rotate tool is red circular arrows.

Try doing something with the tool with the Ruby Console open…  
Any error messages ?

Have you tried the reinstall-as-administrator + repair ideas ?
