        It's a cool plugin already now (although has some limitations like the Follow me can also have with concave curves) but a rounded corner (preferably an "option" vs the pointy one) would indeed be a great improvement!

          With the holdiays, I am just resuming some work on my scripts. Indeed, I will try to fix issues with Round Edge (and maybe develop the spheric / elliptic option).

          Fredo, When you say to develop the spheric / elliptic option do you mean something like the attachment image?

          That would be a huge improvement 😄

          Thank you again for this amazing must-have tool...

          How did you do that?

              SU needs and can catch up with bonzai3d
              Fredo this ruby + other transformation like twist and bend would be really great.

              Get Upa !

                Funny(and sad) that Sketchup on version 7 needs to catchup with a beta release... interestingly bonzai 3d shares a render engine with modo (assuming that it has the same render engine as FormZ)

                    It would be great if the Round Edges tool would work like that Bonzai3D image. I've had so much models which use complex shapes that totally effed up when I unleashed the RE tool on them, after which I had to manually retrace the outlines to make them work properly...

                    More varied than the Borg, more powerful than the living dead, and better shots than Imperial Stormtroopers.

                    You've gotta love Slivers.

                      Can you tell me more about this, please?
                      Do you have a link?
                      It would really be a great news!

                      Ciao, Gio

                          hi fredo, great script once more. 😲
                          did you ever figure out how to overcome this type of thing?

                            Hey Fredo

                            This is a great script we are having difficulties with its performance due to a high number of edges. We are currently working on how to extrude letters from .dwg files and we want to bevel the edges of the letters but they are made up of many edges and the script gets bogged down with the task. 🎉

                            Thanks

                            Here is the file we are currently working on.

                              did you try sds on that as you did with the other project?

                                Yes but we are having issues with extra lines showing up and the process is a little time consuming. Was hoping for a tool that was a little more simple in it's approach.

                                  i think the follow me tool would be your best option there.

                                    draw a face on the top edge perpendicular like this:face.jpg

                                    select top face then followme tool then click on the drawn arc, then close the top face:follow.jpg

                                      If it is just to round the top and bottom faces, then I suggest you use xrok simple method with Follow me.
                                      RoundEdge is more intended to handle the rounding of corners where you apply it to 3 or more edges.
                                      The current method is not performing fast, I agree. The script was actually experimental and I did not rework on it recently. Obviously, this is not the right tool for a serial usage. Sorry for that.

                                        Thank you all for your input. Looks like the follow me tool will work well for us on simple geometry. We hope that in the future someone will develop a commercial grade bull-nosing and filleting (edge smoothing) script with capabilities similar to what is depicted in the attached video.

                                        Here is what we accomplished using the follow me tool on the edges of the letters. We also found that we could use it to make fillets on the bottom of the letters.


                                        A Bull-nosing plugin with these capabilities would be ideal.

                                          i would suggest that before you pushpull your letters you clean up the edges, there's no reason to have all those faces on the sides. better yet why don't you just use the SU 3Dtext tool?

                                            That video looks familiar to me.

                                            And the Original Source. A good place for script ideas 😛
