I am trying to download models from 3D warehouse when I download model into my main model when I do that it bug splats my file. So instead of down loading into my file I open 3D warehouse it says download blocked so obviously I get no download. if I shut 3D warehouse down and open it again. sometimes it lets me download 1 item and then "download blocked"
The 2 thing a prob not connected. any ideas?
Hi Guys< take my word for this please. I came up with a scenario on what Trump and musk are up to (above post) I posted that post 6 days ago coincidently, as this video was released 6 days ago, but I only found this in my YT algorithm about an hour ago (I swear) This guy has brought up almost the exact scenario. What i saw in trumps is that his actions are exactly what you would need to do to tank an economy, I saw the pattern very, very clearly. Then I saw this Video I was so shocked as in the back of my mind I was questioning my metal health, I posted the the question to an AI bot. It said the concept above had possibility. But also pointed out that there would be checks and balances in place within admiration. I wounder maybe trump is trashing and gutting institutions as a smokescreen that he is also getting rid of those that do these "Checks and balances" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1OLNnRRAC4
Well, thanks to a user on the SketchUp Forum, I have found a way to download Box's YouTube videos and add them to my folder. Since they are mp4 videos they can then be played via Media Player (which launches in a separate window and allows you to pause them).
There is an extension for Microsoft Edge called Internet Download Manager. Here is a link to a video that will tell you how to install it in Microsoft Edge: How to install Internet Download Manager
I've stopped rendering for now, I'm stuck with this problematic project that I sent you screenshots of. These spots in the shadows
Hello, thomas,
sorry for the late reply
I will try to answer tonight
Feel free to cannibalize parts of my ImageTrimmer, which smooths jaggedness...
You pass the edges' collected vertex points, and set an epsilon factor... thus.
### epsilon is a float perhaps < 0.2
### perhaps it's set by the user ? experiment for best default...
### the vertices are collected from the current outline[s]
points = vertices.collect{|v| v.position }
simplified_curve = douglas_peucker(points, epsilon) ### might return []
simplified_curve << simplified_curve[0] if simplified_curve[0] ### so it 'loops'
edges = some_entities.add_curve(simplified_curve) if simplified_curve[0]
### sort out edges' faces, hide edges etc as desired
the 'douglas_peucker()' method is this...

def douglas_peucker(points, epsilon)
###
return points if points.length < 3
### Find the point with the maximum distance
dmax = 0
index = 0
line = [points.first, points.last]
1.upto(points.length - 2) { |i|
d = points[i].distance_to_line(line)
if d > dmax
index = i
dmax = d
end
}
### If max distance is greater than epsilon, recursively simplify
result = []
if dmax >= epsilon
### Recursive call
recResults1 = ImageTrimmer.douglas_peucker(points[0..index], epsilon)
recResults2 = ImageTrimmer.douglas_peucker(points[index...points.length], epsilon)
### Build the result list
result = recResults1[0...-1] + recResults2
else
result = [points.first, points.last]
end#if
###
return result

end #def
You can do smoothing of curves afterwards, with dedicated tools. It's difficult to do it appropriately when extracting contours from the image, because there are too many situations.
And of course, without the plugin, you can always draw over the image with arcs, splines and lines....
