cheers mate! now i know why i couldent find a solution for it google.

@yukonhoo said: wow, yes, exactly like that. Thanks!! Is there a mesh-making plugin as well, or can you do that in normal Sketchup? could you be more specific?

Thanks again John. It seems I should have used the original plugin post, so I will do that now, as the topic has come to the top.

Whenever you experience such problems, always be suspicious of this non-planar thing. With raw (non grouped) geometry, you can always check the co-ordinates for each endpoint with the Text label tool - by default it gives these co-ordinates I also used in my example.

Oh! I just discovered that the polyline segmentor will divide a line without breaking it apart. That helps!

TIG, thank you for responding. Ben

Another tip... It's a good idea to have Reverse Faces and Orient Faces assigned to shortcut keys [you must have a face selected before opening Preferences > Shortcut filer 'reverse' or 'orient' for the command to become shortcut-able]. Perhaps Reverse=shift+Q and Orient=alt+Q then they are near each other and easy to use in sequence... These shortcuts will work in other tools too - like PushPull - say you PushPull a face and the result has reversed faces, just ctrl+Z to undo and with the tool still in PushPull over the face so it is 'highlighting' hit shift+Q and the face reverses - now PushPull it and all is well...

A simple section slice would be fine, you don't need any detail just simple 2D outlines. One might be able to activate a plan view that sits in a corner or it could be in a separate window. Or make where and how the map shows up user selectable. The data is already there in the drawing, but how to tap it?

@hsjzyangbin said: it can't work in my sketch pro 7.0 Why not ?

screw it! i just made a shortcut key instead. would still be nice to know though. thinking about it one would probably create a module or function with the jitter code (not sure of the correct term) then call the module with an onclick event.

thank you massimo for your help, I spend 2 days looking for this plug in to try, you said is shown in the first post but i never see it. thanks man.....

Cool plugin, Thomas. Thanks! _KN

how about this? the plugins i wrote [image: VLpg_6.gif]

[image: oSnS_w.gif] is it like this??

tig. in this new version of lathe, it could include generating estrución edges, and besides extrusion of faces?

I think weld.rb is a free download from http://www.smustard.com Anssi

There's one on Smustard [$] - there are also some free examples in the forum if you 'Search'...

Hi Diego, I do not know too much about that plugin either but it looks very similar in concept to Driving Dimensions - which has a commercial and a free version, too. [image: for_mac500.gif]
