[Plugin] Silhouette to Plane v1.1
-
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!

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?

IF you had read the notes you'd see that you need 'WorkPlane.rb'... because you must first make and then select a 'WorkPlane' with your other parts you want to project - that's how it knows what plane to project its result on to...

Working great as always
Thank U TIG

sweet

Thanks
, it is great script for mechanic model favour, this plug-in shall mostly advance to project 3d model in STD plan,but I found some error happen, when I test by simple cylinder ,which was rotated a bit from origin , there are 1 error time of total 4 time
I love this script , and hope it could been tune-up ,but I am begin to learn for SU plugin codding , shame to less helping

TIG, not sure if this is how you intended the script to work or not.
Using SU8. If I select a bunch of standalone geometry and a couple of groups, only the standalone geometry gets project to the working plane. Each group has to be selected individually to be projected.
