[Plugin] [$] Artisan (1.2.3) - Feb 28, 2014

Whaat

this plugin is so great but im having difficulties learning how to use it..
i hope someone will post some tutorials soon.

Yes, I regret that I did not have time to create tutorials before the release date. I hope to have some available within a week. Please check the website often. I plan to have a tutorial for each feature of the plugin.

I wonder if its a "good" or "bad" idea for some of the more experienced users to post proxies on this forum, or the warehouse in order for some of the less experienced users to try them out, learn, and perhaps then post their own.

REGIS

Try this one

Dale,

I'm so excited to use it, I can hardly wait. I have one question for you. I just purchased one upgrade license for myself and then in a separate transaction purchased another for another computer in the office. The email with the registration key came and it has the same key as the first upgrade key I purchased. Is this normal?

Rich O Brien

To understand proxy creation it's best to start with what happens to simple geometry. Then add geometry to see how this influences the result...

Proxie Sample.skp

This was an example that Elisei used in the Beta testing and i think it explains with such elegance the beauty of proxies.

Thank you,REGIS and Rich O'Brien, Great start for new users.

Hi all,
Does anybody know if I can run the plugin in multiple computers with 1 purchase?

Thanks,
James

Great piece of work, thank you! However, while I can crease whole faces I can't un-crease whole faces. I have to do it one edge at a time. Any thoughts?

hmmm....works fine for me. I just hold shift and click on the face while using the crease tool....

I've tried on simple and complex models. Could it be because I'm using 7.1? I'll also try a complete restart also. Either way I'm happy to have the upgrade

Hi James,

I apologize that the license agreement that was included with the software was not very clear on this subject. I have revised the EULA and now included it on the website:

Page not found - Artisan

Artisan (artisan4sketchup.com)

I hope this clears up any misunderstandings.

Thanks!

Do you get any error messages in the Ruby Console when you try to uncrease?

@Whaat: Thank you for posting the updated EULA. I was just about to look it up, as I had the same question as jchau2007, and I did not want to do anything inadvertently illegal. Congratulations on your release from production jail.

Also, thank you for definitively stating that you expect users to try before they buy.
Best wishes,
mitcorb

Explode those curves and it should work, also after the operation delete the coplanar lines.

No errors. Ok, it all seems to depend on exactly where the cursor is when I un-crease. If I click on a place on the face that coincides with the smoothed mesh then it doesn't work. Just a quirk of Sketchup I guess. All is fine and thanks for the help!

Could someone convert those proxies, so I could open them in SU 7 please.

Here you go.

Thanks!

Just got into a problem- my laptop has a few broken arrow keys. That did not bother me before, becuse I don't use them almost never anyway, but how do I adjust the sculpt tools strenght now? It looks like only the radius is adjustable throught the VCB.
