Pollination international, parallel Versions and ladybug-tools

[heikow]

Hi,

here are some issues i found:

• we use rhino 6 and rhino 8 parallel at the moment, so pollination creates to folders (with the same content?) . But both of them rhino 8 tries to load and throws conflicts when Grasshopper is started:
  

• Also i get errors if i have ladybug-tools installed together with pollination
  

• The delete button calls the “delete” command, that only works in english versions. In other languages you have to add an _ to the command, so you have to call “_delete” to make it international

Best regards,
Heiko

Hi @heikow,

Thank you for reporting this. We had a similar discussion here that explains the process for fixing this issue manually.

Rhino 8 - After installation issues

Hi @ayezioro, Congrats on making the move to Rhino 8! Your understanding is correct. Rhino tries to load the DLLs from the two different folders. The system is set up like this so the plugins for Rhino 7 can be automatically loaded to Rhino 8. But it can cause issues like the one that you shared. Can you try to only install it for Rhino 8, and open Rhino 8 to load the libraries from the right folder? Then go back and install it for both of them. See here: Rhino Plugin Installation Error "…

The latest versions of the Rhino installer provide an option to install the plugin only for a select version of the Rhino plugin which can also solve this issue by installing the plugin only for Rhino 8 first and then adding Rhino 7, and Rhino 6 if desired.

Is this about the Rhino plugin? I’m copying @mingbo here so he is aware of this issue.

Hi,
i installed the newer version and selected Rhino 8 and Rhino 6. But Rhino 8 loads the Plugin from Version 6 folder. So same problem like here:

Rhino Plugin Installation Error "ID already in use" - #2 by mostapha
I’ll try a new installation only for Rhino 8.

I meant this delete:

The commands in the german version are also in german, so DELETE is LÖSCHEN. But _DELETE works.

Thank you for reporting this issue. It is indeed a bug, and I just pushed a fix. It should be available in the next release.

Thank you, @mingbo!

@heikow, the new version (v1.43.5) is released, and you can give it a try. Thank you for reporting the issue.
