            Feedback:
            The Plugins Dropdown Menu commands for the extrusion suite appear to be operational with your latest revisions.
            Thank you, again.

            I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

                Thank you.

                I shall include it in the next update - meanwhile any Chinese users can download it now and unzip it into their ../Plugins/TIGtools/ folder.

                I note you have called it 'extrudeEdgesByLatheCN.lingvo' BUT I think it should be 'extrudeEdgesByLatheZH-CN.lingvo' ?
                I think locale for a Chinese PC is ZH-CN ?
                If it is then the file needs renaming to suit that: otherwise the locale test won't find it and the text will default to English[US]...
                To check this please type [or copy/paste] in the Ruby Console Sketchup.get_locale.upcase, for you it should return ZH-CN ? For me it'd be EN-US. Whatever it returns is what the 'suffix' on the file name should be...

                Thanks for the help πŸ€“

                    It's not auto use extrudeEdgesByLatheZH-CN.lingvo file. I usually change the filename and overwhite extrudeEdgesByRailsEN-US.lingvo file.

                      Aha ! πŸ’­
                      That way you can even have a EN-US locale but with Chinese text...
                      I know Pilou does that with the FR version...

                      However if you have your locale set to something other than EN-US then any lingvo file in your desired language needs to be named ScriptNameLOCALE.lingvo where LOCALE= your-locale code obtained from using Sketchup.get_locale.upcase in the Ruby Console.
                      This way you can have an EN-US locale but map your desired language lingvo files using that suffix... then you can use SUp even in Esperanto [EO] if you have a translation !

                        I thought of that but as you can orbit whilst picking the curves you CAN ensure you can see everything before committing to it...
                        One of my longer term plans is/was to add a combined web-dialog to the end so you could still orbit/pan/zoom to view the mesh and change the settings and when satisfied press OK... πŸ€“

                              hey Tig,

                              here's a request for the lathe tool to tuck away for those rainy days πŸ˜„

                              your extrusion suite has radically changed the way i model in SU as i very rarely use the followme tool anymore.. lathe pretty much fixes the multiple problems i encounter with

                              anyway, the only problem i have with lathe.rb is when i'm trying to rotate to an approximate degree (ie - **~**74Β° etc.).. would it be possible to incorporate a protractor of sorts that can measure the actual angle instead of typing it in?
                              (see attached skp for example situation)

                              thanks!

                                As you know [sssh πŸ˜‰ ] I'm looking at some other related extrusion tools and these will involve a protractor to rotate stuff with before making the shapes - so when that's working perhaps I can bolt it on to EEbyLathe πŸ˜„

                                  i do have a decent workaround for now that still gives me the accuracy i'm after so i'll just wait patiently (with fingers crossed πŸ˜„ )

                                        Hi Tig. excellent update.

                                        I attach the file to Spanish translation.
                                        add the missing lines.

                                        Two suggestions:

                                        • Please delete the sound it makes when we choose the tool. is very annoying.
                                        • The command Ctrl + z does not work properly.
                                        • Would be more practical angle by reference to generate 0 to 360. instead of 0 to 180 and 180 to 360

                                            I posted the new ES lingvo file before I read this - can you please read it and [re]advise...
                                            The 'beep' sound it makes is a UI.beep - edit the file and find that line in the code and add a # at the start of the line to stop it loading.
                                            It is not Ctrl+Z for the angle-direction 'toggle' - it's < Ctrl> alone...
                                            I know it would be better to have 0 to 360 degrees... BUT its coding has missed me so far - hence the 0-180 & 180-360, with a toggle <Alt>...
