  • RE: Laser cutting from Sketchup

    If you turn off the tags for the parts you don't want and set up a scene to show the object(s) you're interested in, you should be able to export the view. Or use LayOut. It would be better for setting up the view and getting the desired export.

    Is it possible to contact Fredo06?

    @fredo6 gets his attention.

  • RE: Sketchucation Tools 5.0.4

    @caermalo

    This error is very unexpected.
    As SketchUp starts it loads from your Plugins folder the ../SketchUcation.rb file to set up the rest of the code.
    This in turn loads ../SketchUcation/SCF_loader.rbe
    Which makes the toolbars, menus etc, and loads the various other code files needed to work the extension.
    It's failing at the loader's line#193 with the NameError uninitialized constant SCF::TOOLBARTOGGLEup
    This is one of many Constants set up to set the text for the toolbar button's tool-tips etc.
    Because earlier lines of code have already set 27 similar Constants like SCF::TOOLBARTOGGLE, without any errors I can't immediately see what might be causing this issue for you. These Constants are read in from a text file shipped with the set - ../Strings/SCF-EN-US.strings
    I've checked them and the correct file is included in the file set archive 5.0.4
    Since the TOOLBARTOGGLEup Constant was just added in for this revision, then it looks like you might have a earlier version of the strings file [e.g. <=5.0.3], that the needed newer 5.0.4 l, and the loadedr is then tripping up later as that particular Constant hasn't been defined.

    How did you install the newest version ? From the ExtensionStore dialog, or from a downloaded RBZ - if that. then how did you install the files/folders ? Using the Native Extension Manager's Install function should copy all over and overwrite any preexisting files etc - which it clearly has for the loader etc; or did you manually copy the RBZ's contents into your Plugins folder ? If you did that then maybe you inadvertently skipped the new strings file version ?
    You can see if the existing installation for ../Strings/SCF-EN-US.strings is correct by opening it with Notepad++.exe and around line#31 TOOLBARTOGGLEup= .. defines the Constant. If it's there then something is weirdly adrift, as your other files aren't loading it: but I suggest that it will almost certainly be an older version with that liine missing.
    If it is missing something when wrong with the installation - probably skipped that file's newer version etc - if so the some other files might also be suspect.
    Please try SketchUp's Extension Manager Install function again and pick the 5.0.4 RBZ . After it installs that, then restart SketchUp and see if the error recurs...
    Alternatively you can use a manual way - close SketchUp, then extract the RBZ's contents using 7-Zip or similar [an RBZ is a renamed ZIP file], then manually copy all of its contents - i.e. parts 1) the SketchUcation.rb file and 2) the subfolder SketchUcation [and of course all of that folder's contents intact - files and subfolders of more files etc. When prompted choose to Replace the 118 or so existing files [never Skip them]. Afterwards restart SketchUp to sync everything and see what happens...
    Please let us know what happens...

    Would it be possible to obtain a history or correct this date error?

    ThruPaint was originally free and got a major update and went commercial.

    I believe v1 is still in FredoTools

  • RE: FredoCorner errors in Sketchup 2026 (on files that RoundCorner has not problem with)

    FWIW, Fredo has acknowledged that FredoCorner is not an exact replacement for Round Corner although they generally do the same sort of things. There are some cases in which one works and the other doesn't. I've found it imprtant to have both extensions.

  • RE: FredoCorner errors in Sketchup 2026 (on files that RoundCorner has not problem with)

    I would think there is a few issues here that are mesh related.

    • Edge density is at ~650 edges which very high.
    • The boundary has tons of edges in areas that are really not needed

    My approaching to fixing things would be to use Curvizard. Cleanup and resample the curve to re-create the shape with a more manageable edge count. Without affecting the silhouette.

    You could go from ~650 edges to <300 quite comfortably.

    If you overlap the profiles you can see no benefit from the excessive edge count.

    You can then run Fredo Corner:

    I would guess the reason RoundCorner 'works' is because Fredo Corner has parametric abilities to restore or edit bevel post-op. If the input is troublesome then Fredo Corner is saying 'I can't do this because the computation and parametric abilities are not suited to geometry'.

    Oh, thought you meant changing units.

    Try placing the tape measure from start to finish on a corner. Sometimes the tape measure is finicky.

    All else fails you can select all and scale it by a factor of 0.08333333333333.
