    Hi I am trying to generate a GCODE from SketchUCam on the attached file and I'm getting this error.

    GcodeUtil.generate_gcode FAILED; Error:undefined method `edges' for #<Sketchup::OptionsProvider:0x007fca42a15e00>

    I am using SketchUp Make 2017 17.3.116 and
    SketchUcam Version 1.4d
    Jan 2016

    Any ideas anyone?

    The problem is in the right hand side (some internal sketchup drawing weirdness), I am not getting an error but I am getting some odd Gcode.
    Solved by deleting the cutlines, select and 'phlatten' the slot, then delete and redraw the bottom straight line,then replace the cutlines.

    Yes, I inserted V-tabs as that is my default. Speeds up cutting a lot, but you must make them longer and deeper than normal tabs.

    Thank you, all ok now using your files. Must be a bug somewhere in the MAC version of Sketchup
