[Plugin] Boolean--OSCoolean (Dec 2013) for SU 8 up free ver

CadFather · 16 Dec 2008, 13:33

Gaieus, alternatively you can put them into a subfolder and call/load them up from Jim's rubytoolbar script.

ton baeten · 16 Dec 2008, 15:38

I think I will go for some kind of 'Gaieus-solution'.
Jim's Rubytoolbar is windows only, so not for me, unfortunately.
I haven't seen any other subfolder-plugin-solution for the Mac (yet !!).

There is something with your last version of the 15!

If I erase your plug all works fine

Install / uninstall same result!

With this version, Google SketchUp 7 is not started in general , normally works only from the first

OscarLok · 20 Dec 2008, 04:05

And Now it should work, at least in my computer.
The script is in the first POST. There are old & new version.

Please give me more feedback after you try it.

Mary X'Mas & Happy New Year !!!

Thanks

SU 7 is now starting
Works fine with your test file
Works not when I create myself the 2 boxes! (each box is a group)
Must have the Pro version

Edit
Works with my boxes, but I must save my file and reload it before use your plug!
Is that normal?

my_try01.skp

pilou · 20 Dec 2008, 09:45

Coplanar box + Cylinder seems little fail

PS Another thing : you must draw something like an "egg timer" because user don't know if computer is calculating the boolean operation!

pilou · 20 Dec 2008, 10:17

A curious thing!
If the man is living that don't work!
If you kill the man that works!

PS Another thing : seems SU 7 works better for your plug than V6, is that normal?

my_try03.skp

OscarLok · 20 Dec 2008, 12:42

Because the man is a component.
If you explode him, than it work.
At this moment, the stability is more important to me. I will include component in the future.

It is not normal! Anyway, your download skp file is working fine!
I will try to do more testing!

Hi oscarlok,

i'm looking at this thread and i am thinking that this might me the solution for what i was looking for, but i am not sure (somehow i think it might also be the functionality that i am nót looking for).
Is it somehow possible to merge 2 object, use your tool and get rid of all the parts that are not available in both objects?
I managed to create something with the letters F, R and @ (which in Holland sounds a bit like my name but it costed me a lot of deleting of the parts that i didn't need, i am wondering if this is possible with your creations without all the timeconsuming deleting?)
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2FEiWoAM6E)

Regards from Holland!

Hi Fred,

Could you please upload your "Ready to Boolean SKP" (before boolean, but have model inside) here. So that I can test it!

I am now holiday in China. And I will be back next year!

Happy New Year

Oscar

Hi Oscar,

sounds like a great way to spent newyear!
I am not quite sure how to upload a skp yet, (and at this moment i am typing on another computer than the one on which i make my .skp's)
but maybe i can write down how i did it? Maybe it is easy for you to replay?

i create a square,
i pushpull it up until i have a solid block.
on the left side of the block i use the 'A' (write text) tool and just type the letter F,
on the front of the block i write the letter R and i make this the same hight as the F.
Then on top of the block i write down the '@' which i resize so it fits exactly (the hight of the '@' is the same as the width of the F and the (how do you call that in english? from left to right) of the '@' is the same as the (left to right) of the R.
Then i pushpull all the object backwards as much as needed or even more.
At this point (hopefully i have got this version on the other computer) i am ready to intersect and delete all the lines that i do not need, but i hope there is a faster way?

I will try to find the skp on the other computer, the few coming days are very busy overhere so maybe a little silence from my part but in the meantime happy days and enjoy your stay in china!

Hello

To me the OSCoolean Beta(18-12-2008)is not working at all. It does nothing.
In the ruby console I get the error message which i have attached.
The previous ruby was working. Any clue?

Thanks in advance
with best regards

Hi Oscar,

i have recreated the .skp you were asking for.
At this moment i have created a block 2000x2000x2000, inserted an F on the left side, a R on the front, drawn some help lines to the top and inserted the @ on the top and scaled it to fit between the lines (not exactly the right size but OK).
I have pushpulled everything to the other side and normally now i would do a lot of erasing but maybe you know another way of doing this?

Thanks!

Fred.

Is there any component in your SKP file, please?
My script is ONLY working in group at the moment.

Oscar

PRSS · 28 Dec 2008, 14:38

Thank you for your reply Oscar. Yes the default face-me component Sang was there.
Once I removed him, it works now. But it takes two to three times more time to do
the operation than the previous first ruby script. But it is now working.

Thanks once again

With best regards

Hi Oscar,

Did you already had an opportunity to look at my .skp?
I can create what i want with it, but that involves a lot of erasing unwanted lines and i am still wondering if this can be done in an easier way (i already have created the 'F/R/@'-image i wanted, but i have some more ideas i want to work out so i am very eager to learn a better/faster way.

Thanks again!

Fred.
