It has some adjustments to the toolbar icon image code etc to make it more robust - a very few users have reported missing icons - this update should fix this issue.

Feedback please...

It works, icons and all!

Thanks!

Your wish is my command...
Different OSs can have slightly different Ruby versions etc... I have now made a 'cast-iron' version: although it did work for the vast majority before, it did rely on Ruby's kind nature in finding the files in the same folder as to script - which of course it usually did - but now there is no doubt as it's been 'hard-coded' !
Hopefully this will 'cut of at the pass' any further bug reports about this mini-glitch...

Hi TIG, what is the second Icon for?

Hi TIG thx a lot it works perfect

Hi TIG, what is the second Icon for?

There is NO second icon !

You are getting an additional button for some obscure reason .
Can you hover your cursor over both buttons and see what the tool tip and command line text says for each - also try clicking each one in turn and report what it does...
I do recall a MAC user getting this on another tool ages ago/
Firstly can you please check that you haven't got two versions of some of the Octane stuff loading - perhaps in the two 'Plugins' locations*** - use the README or Help tips to find where your Plugins folder is and thus where the files and sub-folders should be installed -then check you haven't got duplicates of any of them in other places - e.g. perhaps even loose in Plugins or in your personal 'user' folder structure***...

On that one occasion this MAC glitch of an extra blank button was solved thus - change the toolbar from a horizontal to a vertical one and the duplicate button disappears; after a restart it's OK - then changing it again doesn't result in the extra button ??? It seemed to be a MAC OS glitch rather than tool specific...

Hi TIG, what is the second Icon for?

I just noticed this too (also with the previous version):
- if Octane toolbar is OFF when you start SU and then you activate it via menu it loads fine (one single icon like in my old post for 1022-01)
- if Octane toolbar is On when you start SU it loads the second "fake" button...

not a great problem TIG, it's just to remind you'll never get rid of Mac glitches until our smart Apples know you're a win-only guy

cheers,
A

Weird indeed - have you tried the making it vertical rather than horizontal trick ?

[TIG]

Could you MAC users with this glitch try this alternative .rb file [in this zip]

to go into your ../Plugins/Octane/ folder and replace the 1022-02 version.
If it works it'll form the basis of 1022-03...

Feedback please...

mmm... making it vertical does the trick indeed, while re-making it horizontal takes back the issue again. now this is a good or bad news?

BTW, the "fake" button shows no tooltips but I can push it (of course it does nothing)
