[Plugin] Lines to tubes
-
Thanks didier!
It works great!I've already used...
One single possible request... would be possible to modify so we could extrude along square shapes as well?
So in Solo's image above for example, i could quickly build beans, columns.. etc etc.. all square?Thanks again!
PS: i've just donwloaded your all in one file... i'm feeling it'll take me ages to check them all...

maybe...for me it works with old tool....
Thanks Didier for a very usefull plugin... I was wondering if there is way to clean up intersection...

...thanks,Didier!...I expected it for a long time!

Very nice Didier, thanks
Additionally may be you could:
1/ add a rotation parameter (when precision is 4 one would get square section (rotation 45))
2/now I weld lines to get continuous result. Any chance to get it automatically?
3/conjunctions? -

maybe......yes! "line2cyl.rb" should be deleted
...Didier, please restore this function in "projection_extension.rb" -
Deleting the lines2cyl ruby did sort out the problem.

Hi all,
Sorry for the inconvenience of the "not showing plugin" problem. My fault. You must delete old "line2cyl.rb" of your plugins folder OR I must correct the name of the plugin in the code (I forgot to change it). If line2cyl is loaded first, SU doesn't create another menu item in the tools menu for the new version.@unknownuser said:

Use a precision of 4 and you'll get square section prisms.(RTFM)

Does this make sense ? This function has nothing to do with projection IMHO...

The script can't do it (I mean, quite difficult to code). A workaround is to draw as much curves as you can, and select "Yes" in the "follow-me on curves" option. But it cannot clean intersections on T or Y or X branching edges.
Maybe next version will do it ? -
THANKS A LOT, Didier..!!

Thanks Didier.
Could this be adapted to use a semi-circle with thickness? I am thinking of use for ridge tiles on a roof.

Thank you Mr. Didier!!Elisei

Ditto Sepo, I found the same thing...

Thanks so much Didier! You just made my life so much easier!

maybe...I did not have a chance to look at this until now on my work machine. I had line2cyl.rb here as well. I installed Lines to tubes and got the same results... not showing up. So I then tried as you suggested Pilou, deleting line2cyl.rb and now it is showing up.
Thanks. -
i think there should also be an option to make not round tubes but square hexagonal triangular ones.

I think if you downloaded the plugin and checked the manual you'd see that it already does what you want.
