Upgrading Skatter data to v2 error

eddski · October 1, 2021, 9:52pm

SketchUp version : Sketchup Pro 2020 v20.1.228
Skatter version (Skatter dialog > Options > About) : 2.0.0. (Demo)
OS : MacOS Catalina 10.15.7
Description of the issue : When upgrading Skatter v1 data to v2, the process seems to complete but I do not find any compositions in the Skatter composition manager, it’s blank. They do not show up at render time either.
Are you able to reproduce the issue every time? (If yes, how?) : Yes, tried it with multiple files on two different machines.
Error in Ruby Console? (Window > Ruby Console) : No error, it says “Upgrade completed successfully” for each composition.

Hi @eddski
We were able to find and fix this issue thanks to your help!
It should work better in the next version that we’ll release soon.

Thank you Merwan. In the meantime I found a workaround: upgrade the composition to v2, then save the file. Close Sketchup and reopen the file, and the compositions now show up in the composition manager.
