@it fails to import shapefile

@it 2.3 V

I keep having this error and not sure why. I have set the path for the shapefile, but it fails to import the information.

1. Solution exception:Could not load file or assembly 'DotSpatial.Data, Version=1.7.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c29dbf30e059ca9d' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

I saved the downloaded files from ArcGIS the following way. Not sure if this could be affecting the import. I'd made sure there's spaces on the path.

Thanks for the help!

It seems the Index error arises when I try to open polygons extracted via Arcmap from a larger .shp file. The original grouping .shp opens just fine. I suppose I dont need the single extracted files if I can successfully bring in the group, but might be useful to find out what went wrong.

I have it unlocked, all of the support files present, and its giving me the same error:

1. Solution exception:Could not load file or assembly 'DotSpatial.Data, Version=1.7.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c29dbf30e059ca9d' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Is it possible to send a screenshot of the folder you unzipped the plugin into? Is the DotSpatial.Data.dll file in that folder? If so, is it possible to try to also try:

1. Removing the @it folder from your computer.

2. Download the zip again. Unblock the entire zipped file before unzipping it to your Grasshopper libraries folder.

3. Restart Rhino and Grasshopper and start again.

Does the problem continue to persist?
