[Plugin] Silhouette to Plane v1.1
-
very good idea TIG! Although, I am getting some errors here - with a single loop of edges it works fine, but for several faces it gets messed up:
btw, would it be possible to have the projection lines run all to the same focal point, similar to Radial Lines plugin? Like this we could also have a flattened picture of a perspective view.

This is the first [buggy] release!
Can you post and example SKP so that I can see the errors... -
-
TIG, How many plugin, and point releases are you currently averaging? 1 a week?-)
And, you still find time to help us. Thanks!!!!!

Hi TIG,
I suggest you change line #63 to: @model.start_operation("Silhouette to Plane")
Thanks for all your hard work ! -
Here's v1.1 http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=281445#p281445
The correct Plane of a 'WorkPlane' is now used even if it has been Transformed inside its own Group.
Speed and reliability improved.
Title fixed. -
Great Script!
Perfect for sorting out faces that have trouble closing. Could you possibly have it so that if no work plane is selected, that it will default to a placing the silhouette on the 0 z plane? Similar to ThomThoms Flatten script in his "Plan Tools", except yours automagically creates the face and groups it. -

Just great! You are a hero, hats off to thee!

Here's an example...

This sort of image must be at each first post

Here's another example.
Silhouette to plane is also great for flattening a set of looped edges you want to be planar to form a face, but cant seem to find the vert that's out of whack.

this could be great for making face me components! render the 3d version then apply as texture to the 2d.

TIG, fabulous! Thank you for the flatten to plane script as well. You are very generous, and gifted.

TIG!!!

Thanks, TIG. Amazing script.
Does this plugin do the flatten to plane, or is that a separate plugin? I can't seem to find the command for flatten to plane. (Silhouette to Plane is working great)

Just to point out again what Adam already said, Silhouette to Workplane makes closing difficult outlines sooo easy. Brought back the faith in freehand tool to me.
Rocky, that is a pretty smart idea. I am having thoughts about this kind of matte painting tricks all the time.
(like here: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=79&t=31069)thanks again for your generosity TIG!

TIG:
When I click on the script's download button the #SilhoutteTpoPlane.rb downloads. I put the script in the plugins directory of SU8. When I open SU8 I get the following error:%(#FF0000)[Error Loading File #SilhouetteToPlane.rb
no such file to load -- #WorkPlane.rb]Should #WorkPlane.rb also have been downloaded?
