Gaieus-
Nope, that's not it. The path to Extensions is different because I'm on
a Mac (It's under Google Sketchup -> Preferences), but Ruby Script
Examples and Utility Tools were checked when I first noticed the
problem. I've toggled the Ruby Script box off and back on to no
beneficial effect and have shut down and restarted the program with the
same negative result.
Oddly, the Ruby scripts seem to continue to work. For instance, under
Draw, I still can choose Box and Shapes, scripts that I had earlier
installed. My imagination has run dry about what else to try.
