      Hi Fredo, i don't think this same 16/24 system applies to bezier as well - had a look at the scripts but cannot locate/attempt how to make the switch automatic..any pointers would be great..

      No, Bezierspline is an old script now, but I plan to refresh it at some point in time.
      This being said, it would be relatively simple to make just the modification about icons. Let me think about it.

        ..it would be great to have _16, _24 naming convention like TOS - but all in your own time of course πŸ˜‰

          CadFather,

          For easier access to your set of icons and cursors, I edited the first message of this thread and attached the archive file.

            Hello all, it's my first message here...

            Thanks to Fredo6 for this awesome plugin, it's very useful.

            I've just seen a little bug in the arc display. When you move an arc created with this plugin, the center point (displayed by a cross) doesn't move.

            It would be nice to have the tangent constraint when you create an arc after an other or a line to have a continuity.

            FkY_

            PS : sorry for my "garbage english", I do my best but...

              Not really a bug actually. the script just create a construction point for the arc center for convenience (as it should maybe in native Sketchup!). But the construction point is not really part of the arc and does not keep any connection with it afterward.

              Yes, that would be nice. On a Surface, it is however a little bit tricky, though probably feasible.

                      make sure you have al the files in 'plugins'

                      ZLoader__OnSurface.rb
                      and the folder TOS_Dir_13 which contains the scripts and the toolbar icons

                        Isn't this because the script needs to be activated from the Extensions..?? πŸ˜•

                        From the menu-bar click Window > Preferences, which will open the System Preferences window...
                        Select Extensions and make sure the Tools on Surface is ticked... πŸ˜‰

                        Now you shold be able to see the toolbar - that is if you've extracted the zip-file to the correct folder... πŸ˜‰

                        Cheers

                            I believe I have all the necessary files. I have the ZLoader__OnSurface.rb and then in the TOS_Dir_13 folder I have 73 *.png files, 9 *.rb files, 1 *.def file and 2 manuals.... I have activated the script from extensions. I get all the options from the Tools on Surface section in the Tools pulldown, its just a pain not having a toolbar

                            Pretty sure I have installed and followed all the instructions correctly?

                              By chance, can you check in the menu View>Toolbar if you have a toolbar named "Surface Operations" and if it is checked.

                              Fredo

                                Yep, I have that checked.. that little 'dash thing' that shows up (as shown earlier in the image with the arrow) is what shows up when I have 'Surface Operations' checked

                                  in these cases i move all the plugins to another folder and keep only the troubling one.

                                  give it a try if you still have a problem, redownload the plugin and re-try. if still no good you can try re-installing SU - wouldn't kow what else..

                                    hmmmm turns out I found the problem... For some reason I had extracted the files into the tools directory instead of the plugins directory
