City Gen and rounding edges [split "off"-topic]

[rv1974]

Did you ever used fillet.rbs?
1/ It fillets connected edges only
2/ no 0 filleting
3/ it doesn't work with crosses ( "L" only)
4/ after complaining that something is wrong this tool keep staying.
5/ it works with preselected lines only
You know at the end of this reply I come to conclusion that you have write a good acad like fillet tool

[thomthom]

Haven't used fillet.rb, no.

Sounds like this would be a separate new tool. Maybe some of this code can be used for that...

@rv1974 said:

2/ no 0 filleting

Why do you want that? wouldn't that leave everything unchanged?

@rv1974 said:

5/ it works with preselected lines only

How else would it work?

1/ 0 radius filleting is some kind of trim\extend - very powerfull
2/ there should't be nothing wrong to select the tool before geometry

So the lines you start out with wouldn't actually touch each other?

(Could a moderator split this recent series of post into a new thread? This is describing a different tool; I'd like to keep this thread related to street generating.)

done

Thom could you plese explain how the plugin decides the radius of join between 2 roads. It would be good to have some sort of control over it so it can be used in real situations rather than purely for visual/game stuff. I have not install it yet so I might be shooting blanks here.

You mean the Street Generator? http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=19493
This topic was split into a new thread as it evolved into a request for a different tool. It'd be nice if the dicussion on the Street Generator was kept there and the discussion of this tool kept here.
(Sorry for being a pain, but this is turning out a wee bit confusing fast...)

[sepo]

lol... I was not sure if to post in the street generator tread ...sort of not to polute...Ok I will repost my comment in the (now I know ) correct tread so mods can remove it from here if they wish.

I am desperately searcing for a good fillet tool for roads.
For a Yield Analysis I need to draw lots of roads manually and I am haing a hard time making the fillets....
An automated plugin that does this as described here with a radius parameter would be a time saver....
