        Alternative solution:
        I see that you have Whaat´s "subdivide and smooth". Use the knife tool (a.k.a. zorro) in parallel projection. Also you can group the faces you don´t want to divide:

            Hi Toucan, the script is located in the first post of this thread. Go back to page one and look for a download link there. Have fun!

              I occasionally get this happening while using TOS. What's causing it?
              I wanted to draw an arc between the two points - going across the two faces.

                The algorithm has many flaws, espcially on shape volumes that are closed.
                I am thinking of a serious refresh to resolve these problems (and some others).

                      may I request an additional feature?

                      adding rounded corners to a shape?

                        So it some times picks the wrong distance/direction between the two points? A workaround would be to break the volume somehow?

                          Somehow, it works much better when the surface is open.
                          But I know how to fix the problem. No easy, but I need some time, as I have to revisit the whole algorithm.

                            Rightclick menues issue..
                            After having installed Fredo6 Tools on surface + FredoScale I´m having the darnest stupid problem:
                            Most contextual menues are greyed out, like Intersect with model, Flip along Groups Red, and so on..
                            I can create shortcuts to these commands and they work as expected, but I rely heavily on shortcuts in my work and list of shortcuts is getting more and more crowded. Have I done something wrong here and this is normal behavior? I have been searching the forum but so far havent found a description af this "problem".
                            I have most definetely missed out on something here and the fault is obviously mine (as it usually is) but I really would appreciate an input to help me solve this matter.

                            Vista 64- Sketchup Pro 7.1.6860
                            Plugins: Fredo6 ToolsOnSurface v1.5f LIBFREDO6_Dir_34 (109 mS seems OK?
                            Total time to load plugin = 187 mS) FredoScale v2.0g (Total time to load plugin =124 mS)

                                I have heard that this problem is related to SU itself, though it may be 'helped' by some plugins.
                                I got it occasionally, even not using any plugins.

                                    A minor issue and not sure if this is Mac related.

                                    I can only get the default icons to show.
                                    If I go into Default Parameters and choose IMAGES_DanielS then save changes, it does nothing. I can open the default parameters again and the box is un-ticked.
                                    I have the latest version installed.

                                          Just replace the default icons with the ones you wish (in the plugins directory). Thats actually the way I did it.

                                          I’m also having another issue. IDK if this has been discussed before or not, but after I use this tool I sometimes loose right click options such as; smooth, make group/component, reverse faces, etc.

                                            The issue of loosing some right-click context-menu items [i.e. they get "greyed-out"] is a known bug with more recent versions of SketchUp - Google are being pressed to fix it...
                                            Its cause is not wholly established, although having lots of plugins that make context-menu items and repeated clicking on objects seem to both trigger it - separately or together !
                                            All of a context-menu's items still appear correctly under the last item in the main Edit Menu - so you can access them this way if the worst happens...
                                            The only 'fix' is to save and restart SUp - then you should get back the context-menu, albeit momentarily.
                                            Don't load plugins you aren't ever going to use - they increase the load and might just be the 'last-straw...' - move them out of the Plugins folder or rename them from .rb to .txt - that way you can always load them during a session by typing in the Ruby Console load"the_script_name.txt" ...
                                            😒
