Hi,
I tried to install BuildingTcl according to instruction mentioned on as mentioned on Installation page but I had few glitches during installation.
1-After extracting the buildingTcl to Program files C:/Program Files/BuildingTcl, the first thing i noticed the contents of folder are bit different to as mentioned on download instructions.
2-When I try to Install BuildingTcl by double-clicking the installation file: BuildingTclInstall.bat, nothing happens, therefore I tried another thing, I extracted all files on my desktop and from there then I copied myBuildingTcl.tcl and myBuildingTclViewer.tcl files to C:/Program Files/BuildingTcl. And then i changed their address by opening then with notepad to C:/Program Files/BuildingTcl.
3-Finally when I ran myBuildingTclViewer.tcl, it worked but whenever i try to test material or add a new one or i try to do anything I simply get this error
invoked from within
".wBuildingTclViewer.pwPanes.frame.fSaveButtonsFrame.lTestFrame.bAnalyze invoke"
("uplevel" body line 1)
invoked from within
"uplevel #0 [list $w invoke]"
(procedure "tk::ButtonUp" line 24)
invoked from within
"tk::ButtonUp .wBuildingTclViewer.pwPanes.frame.fSaveButtonsFrame.lTestFrame.bAnalyze"
(command bound to event)
P.S. I copied the OpenSees.exe and OpenSeesTk.exe to program files folder and I have latest vesrsion of Tcl installed as available on OPenSees website.
here are screenshots

Re: Building Tcl Installation Issues
silvia no longer looks after the buildingTcl at the website .. i will however ask her to see if she has time to look into the problem .. being from Italy will help your cause.
Re: Building Tcl Installation Issues
sounds like you are not running it from within OpenSees.

Re: Building Tcl Installation Issues
you want to run the script with OpenSeesTk and not wish (the tcl interpreter installled when you installed tcl and that the windows would set up as the default to run all files with a .tcl extension)

Dear fmk and silvia,
Thanks a lot!
I was using wish application as default for my input files. Now changed it to OpenSeesTk.exe and it worked!
