Text strings conflict with another plugins

[SSmolak]

Hi,

I noticed why Octane always loose its file menu text string to StrNotFound. There is conflict with another plugins which use its own strings descriptions like MeshBooleans and many other :

STRINGTABLE meshboolean
{
meshboolean "Mesh Boolean";

SETTINGS "Default Settings";

This additional StringTable in another plugins cause Octane file menu problem.

What's mesh boolean?

What's mesh boolean?

It's example of plugin ( https://www.thegreatsummit.com/product/meshboolean ) which use own strings descriptions which interfere with Octane text strings.

Generally any plugin which has such description folder structure cause problem with Octane text string :

Can you please post whole log output from "Console" window? Find under Extensions/Console menu.

I removed all plugins only Octane and MeshBoolean are installed

Problem was resolved by MeshBoolean developer. There was bug in their plugin. They sent me new version and problem with Octane file menu is gone.

I've wondered about this for ages, and just accepted that the menu was out of whack on our machines since it didn't seem to cause any functional problems. I figured it was from a plugin, but never spent the time to track it down to MeshBoolean. Thanks for doing the legwork to figure it out.
