Problem installing "toxiclibs" library on Processing

Question

I want to install the "toxiclibs" library on Processing, but when I go to "Sketch" -> "Add library", I don't find it among the examples !

I looked on the internet and found the github link for it. Now how can I manually install it because I had tried to copy the library many times in different folders (the "library" folder for example which seems obvious) but nothing changed and I still get the message "No toxi" library found !

I used Processing 4 and 3 and had the same issue.

Unfortunately the toxiclibs have not been updated in a while therefore the library is not integrated with the Contribution Manager in Processing.

Additionally it's a collection of libraries with a slightly different structure to simpler Processing libraries.

That being said you should be able to:

1. Download toxiclibs-complete-0021.zip (from the github repo's releases page)
2. Unzip the contents to Documents/Processing/libraries
3. Try to use a sketch or open a an example (via Examples > Contributed Libraries)

I'm suspecting you mainly need the Quaternion class to convert the MPU6050 data to a 4x4 matrix to use in Processing ? (Personally I haven't used MPU6050 for 6DOF, I've used BNO055 and even the Adafruit guide recomends their WebSerial Model Viewer, probably due to the lessened support with the Processing/toxiclibs setup ?)
