Support for Sketchup 2015

Hi

The plugin ready for Sketchup 2015 x64 bit version?

Regards

Vali Bundle

Currently the subscription price for all products is $143.00... Is there or will there be a architect's bundle?

If I'm going to pay for each of these every year it would make it easier.

A wish

Chuck,
you are creating excellent and practical plugins for real life.

I have an idea for you. Clean and simple plugin. If you had it, I might be the first to pay for it:

I'm looking for a plugin that can constantly display area of a specific surface whether it is currently selected or not (or even nested into a component).
Also would be very useful to see real time update on statistics of a specific component (to see how many instances of this components are in the model without selecting it.
This will save a bunch of time on tailoring projects for certain project data.

To install a SketchUp Ruby plugin script with .rbz file

SketchUp and .rbz files

To install a SketchUp Ruby plugin script with the .rbz format: We recommend logging into your computer as an admin before installing any Ruby scripts. This will make the installation go more smoothly and ensure that files get installed in the proper places.

1) Open Sketchup and select Window > Preferences (Microsoft Windows) or SketchUp > Preferences (Mac OS X). The Preferences dialog box is displayed.

2) Click on Extensions. The Extensions panel is displayed.

How exactly does one install on OS X?

I've looked at the installation PDF, and it doesn't help. There is no "Library/Application Support/Google Sketchup 8/Sketchup/Plugins" folder. I've copied the *.rbs file into my own plugins folder (which I can point Sketchup to on my Windows machine), and I've also copied into the /Applications/Sketchup 2013/Sketchup.app/Plugins (hidden) folder. I've quit & restarted. I've tried Sketchup>Preferences>Extensions>Install Extension, but the *.rbs file is grayed out and unavailable to select.

This doesn't seem like it ought to be this difficult.

Wanted to purchase subscription but don't want to use Paypal

So yes, I do not wish to subject myself to Paypal nor do I plan on using it in the future because I absolutely loath Paypal. Can you accept my Credit Card please?

Edit:
Sorry, I see the option to buy using Credit card. It is buried so it took me a while to figure it out... please disregard this post...

Thank you and more power...

Edit 2:
Actually, I still can't pay... it's still nagging me to create a Paypal account... so help...

Edit 3:

RENEWAL OF SUBSCRIPTION : INSTANT SCRIPTS

Hi Chuck

I'd like to renew all my subscriptions. How do I go about doing this. Apparently there seems no way mentioned on your website which facilitates this.

Also, my subscriptions expire on 30th December 2013. If I renew immediately now (october 2013), I hope I will be getting renewal TILL 30th Dec 2014, one year from the date of expiration of subscription.

Please revert.

Install Scripts on USB Stick?

Hello Chuck, et al,

I was wondering if there is a way to install Vali scripts on a thumb drive to restrict their use to the person with the thumb drive, me. I've downloaded as_pluginloader.rb and it has potential. It loads plugins from any directory and unloads them when one quits Sketchup, but it doesn't work with the two-step installation process "Instant Fence and Railing" and "Instant Terrain" use.

Does anyone have experience with this, or ideas about making it possible?

Thanks!
