Hi guys it my first time posting in this forum. I am having issues with RoundCorner 2.1. To start, i have added the plugin that is necessary for RoundCorner to work (LibFredo6). And until now i have not been able to find a link to download RoundCorner 2.1a. I am a mac user working with Sketchup 7.1. If someone can give me some direction i'd much appreciate it. The RoundCorner plugin looks good.

Thanks
Artur C

[Chinese version - 11 Nov 09 - 21:50 CET
Diweiman and the SuBAR_CLT team at SketchupBar have translated the script into Chinese.

Fredo, is there a need for English users to update to this version?

Thanks for your tireless and generous work....!

Good question.
The answer is NO. The script is the same. The Chinese translation is contained in the separate .lang file (as for all other languages).

Hi,

I'm new to this forum and wanted to test this nice plugin, I got a fresh install of Sketchup 7 normal, but no plugin menu show up in Window or in any other menu, I've unzipped the file right, any prob with version 7 ?

Many thanks!!

Had no idea Sketch Up could do any of this! As I set here pouring through the 3DS Bible, SU might deserve another look

herrstirlitz · 27 Nov 2009, 13:59

thank you for new buttons!
i'm not sure if i've found bug or if i just little stupid to use the plugin, but somehow i can't get the sharp corner round. instead i've get rounding that is oval.
i hope you can help.

here is a picture of this. like you can see the corners to the right are great, but not the left one.

Unfrtunately, that's the rules of geometry. If your angle is not 90 degree, then you cannot get a circle arc, but an ellipse one.

Hi Fredo,
several times it has happened to me now that if I have a complex selection during a bevel operation with RoundCorner2.1 and I use the orbit tool, then push the CTRL button in order to pan while orbiting, again, while I am in the middle of a complex operation with roundcorner, then SU will just POOF disappear...

I now make a habit of saving every time before using Roundcorner or Fredoscale...

just curious if anyone else has seen a similar issue...

Do you mean that you do an Orbiting while RoundCorner is computing the geometry(i.e. with the progress bar moving and the hourglass cursor)? If so, then you are going well beyond what is supported by the script and probably by Sketchup, and you may certainly get a bugsplat.

My original intent was simply to avoid the white screen syndrom for long computations (especially if you switch back and forth to another application), but Sketchup may not like to have the view changed while the geometry is modified at the same time.

Thanks to confirm.

Fredo

PS: it is anyway a very wise habit to save before doing anything complex, especially with scripts but also with native Sketchup operations.

no no no... I wouldn't try that, no. I'm just going around my building to select about 30 edges that need to be beveled... I get about 20 edges or more... and then need to rotate/pan to see the other ones... I can orbit/rotate the view just fine, but if I hit that CNTRL button + middle mouse button in order to pan the image... poof gone.

no big deal, I agree whole-heartedly and try very hard to save before using most scripts that are 'advanced' like RoundCorner. I really like how you have a 'catch' in it where if it runs into something it can't do, it just stops and doesn't do anything so I can continue working without a crash... in those cases I select fewer lines to bevel at a time and it usually works great.

I couldn't be any happier with FredoScale and RoundCorner... anyone using SketchUp without those tools is NOT using the same program I am using as far as I'm concerned... Fredoscale and RoundCorner saved my beep several times, just this week!

I agree with Fletch!

though I think I might be getting the same bug. While orbiting after selecting faces my screen went completely black and I had to alt+tab to get back to SketchUp. Is that similar to what you got too Fletch?

I guess you mean you get a bugsplat.
I am not able to reproduce this, even on complex models (I just fixed the small issue about the Shift (for pan) interfering with the modifier value for edge selection. This will go in a next upgrade.

If you have a situation where you get the crash systematically, could you send it to me so that I have a closer look.

Thanks

hi fredo.
a query.
it could add this feature?
distinguish between concave and convex

fredo6 · 9 Dec 2009, 04:49

Diego,

This is possible, but I need to build some UI around the functionality (RoundCorner actualy works with any symmetric profile).

If you are in a hurry, edit the file RoundCorner_Algo.rb, line 71 and replace the 'C' by 'CR'.


   @profile_type = ['C', 6]


   @profile_type = ['CR', 6]
