        May 11 update.
        -Fixed hang bug if input box canceled.
        -Beveling now works inside of groups and components.
        -Bevel amount should now be in the set unit format (meters, cm, feet, etc)
        -Somewhat better capping of holes. Still far from perfect. Sometimes it still leaves holes so there is a "Cap Holes" right click option.

                    This may be a dumb question but when I try to download the file I keep getting it in text format... do I just the delete the .txt from the end of it or just put it in the script folder and it knows what to do? Ohh.. and I am using Safari as my internet browser.

                      You'll need to change the file extension to .rb for it to work. Not sure why its downloading it as a .txt though ๐Ÿ˜‰ perhaps some of the more apple savy have an answer?

                        Figured it out... for some reason Safari downloads it as a txt file for some reason. Worked like a charm in IE even though I don't like using IE. Thanks Remus!

                          I use safari on my Mac and .rb's save normally, must be a setting.

                            I looked at my preferences... everything is the way it is supposed to be. Maybe it is because I'm using Safari on Windows or something. Do they automatically save to your desktop or does it give you an option on where you want to save it?

                              Yup to the desktop unfortunately, I hardly use the Mac so it's no big deal really. every now and again I have to clean it all up as I run out of space on desktop.

                                Hi
                                with safari 2 it saves on the desktop but with safari 3 and 10.5 it saves where you want and you can check this in safari's preferences
                                Never tried safari 3 with 10.4

                                      Its a known bug. I haven't figured out how to detect those faces yet. You can fix it by erasing the face and redrawing it using a clockwise line.

                                        As I was playing around with my own beveling script, I found this method to be useful:

                                        edge.reversed_in?(face) 
                                        

                                        The EdgeUse class also has some useful methods that may help fix this bug.

                                        Great script, BTW

                                          I'll try that. Thanks Whaat!

                                          BTW. I understand you lost your bevel script in a HD crash. SketchyBevel was almost doomed as well. My Ruby editor crashed (the only time in years of use) taking the only version of the almost finished plugin with it. Nothing was left. I was despondent. But I manage to pull a half digested version of the Ruby code out of a Sketchup core dump. Whew! I would have never had the strength to redo the code without that.
