Fredo, You did something in this script that I don't think has been accomplished before. Namely, you allow the user to exit and switch tools in the middle of a calculation. This is also the only tool that allows me to switch to another window while it processes without the screen turning white and going to into the spinning circle icon. Is this something other coders could implement, or is it something specific you did within your LibFredo plugin????
This is actually tricky but with no magic. I can be done by everyone. I just cut the calculation into slices and give back control to GUI from time to time.
For Ruby programmers: Threads do not work well in SU7, because SU deactivates the main GUI thread for speed, and anyway, this method leads to twice the time when not interrupted. So I default back to the old good UI.start_timer. -
How long do you set the timer's timeout to?

Currently 1 second, to give some quick feedback when the user press Escape or click in the viewport.

Brilliant Fred06! Great programming!!! I really really wonder whether Google looks to these plugins, because you can't really model without them actually...But nevertheless they couldn't do better then you've done! Great!
Grtzzzzzz

thank you very much, fredo. another fantastic plugin. the ammount of control you give to the user, while keeping it easy to use is really great.
I am very grateful. that is one functionality dearly needed in SketchUp...
-
Thank you fredo!
If you start to use, you can´t live without it anymore! -
I just came across this plug-in and it is exactly what I have been searching for... this is an awesome one.
S - - W - EET ! ! !
Great Job.

Thanks so much. I just couldn't visualize my remodeled bedroom when the mattress was a rectangular prism.
-
Thanka again Fredo, works as a charm
-
Genius!

Very cool Fredo! Google should build one of those giant Lenin type statues of you in front of their headquarters, for all the added value you've given to SketchUp!! I'm now working on one for my home... Hope it's okay with you if the prototype is made of gummi bears and macaroni? I priced bronze but.....

Fredo,
Thats Cool man .................
Thanks
Good Job .......................

exeptionnel, du très bon travail, merci ! -
This will probably sound like I am being nit-picky, but would it be difficult to store the round-over radius and number of segments across sessions? It is just that I use this so often and find myself setting the defaults multiple times daily. Thanks.
-
Thank you Fredo, these are great new features!
For those wondering - it is now possible to define a number of preset configurations that can be saved and loaded with one click.
You can also configure the number of presets in the Default setting dialog for the tool.

Jim,
I took you very good idea, and incorporated it as RoundCorner 2.1. So the parameters (all, not just the offset and nb of segments) are stored across sessions for each tool.
As a bonus, I also created memory slots, designated by letters, to store parameters across SU sessions and restore them at your convenience.
The new version is in the first message of this thread, at http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=20485#p171721
Note that you will need to upgrade to LibFredo6 3.3.Fredo

Having Trouble getting this wonderful looking script to run
Saw a thread from LibFredo describing the removal of empty directories
Have the following empty directories
LibFredo6 3.3a - LIBFREDO6_DIR_32
also
RoundCorner 2.1a - LIBFREDO_DIR_32
ROUNDCORNER_DIR_20
should these be removed???
Should the .rb files LibFredo6.rb and Zloader__RoundCorner.rb be in their respective folders
or should they be removed and placed directly in the plugins folder (someone could probably help me in understanding this in general - do the .rb files stay in the folders or must they be placed directly in the plugins folder for a plugin to function properly ???)
Does the LibTraductor.rb script need to be removed for LibFredo6.rb to function properly?
I am working on a MAC and greatly appreciate any help people can offer in solving this particular difficulty with loading RoundCorner 2.1a and LibFredo6 3.3a - am desperate to use what look like very necessary tools for SKU - Thankis in advance for your attention and help -
Contiued from previous post - Difficulties with installation of LibFredo6 3.3a and RoundCorner2.1a
After removing empty directories I get this message upon SKU start up -
Error Loading File ZLoader__RoundCorner.rb
uninitialized constant Traductor::PluginHelp Please....

It could come from your Unzip program that may not respect the reconstruction of hierarchy for folders. On PC, it is advised to use WinZip, but on Mac, I don't know.
Open the zip file, Select_all, click on Extract, select the Skechup Plugins folder, then answer YES to any request for overwriting.
Do this for LibFredo6 3.3a.zip and for RoundCorner 2.1a.zip.Check that the folder hierarchy is correctly reconstructed
At the top level, with the Sketchup Plugins folder, you should have only these files and folders:
Within the folder ROUNDCORNER_Dir_21, you should have:
Within the folder LIBFREDO6_Dir_33, you should have:
Don't bother for the rest. Do not delete, rename or move files manually.

Fredo - this is off-topic, but I have been wanting to show files and folders as you have shown in the in the previous post. How do you do it?
