[Plugin][$] RoundCorner - v3.4a - 31 Mar 24

[fredo6]

Chromecatz,

No progress so far, because I cannot reproduce the problem.

Could you drop the two attached files into the ROUNDCORNER_Dir_22 folder, then, after restarting Sketchup, exercise one the laynch of the plugin, the selection of edges and the generation of geometry.
RoundCorner_Tool.rb
RoundCorner_Algo.rb

Also, could you have the Ruby console open during this process, just in case you would see a message.

There is a trace file generated, FredoTraceRoundCorner.txt in the SU Plugin directory. Could you post it back or send it by PM.

Thanks very much.

Fredo

Re-read the first post from whence you downloaded the main tool... It tells you that the you need to download the Lib AND has a link to get it...

Tikva2,

Could you post the model.
It looks like you have an extra edge on the face.

Thanks

I was just asking if you could post the SKP file of your model so that I have a closer look.

Thanks

Tikva,

I had a look at the model and now understand what happens.

The offset border (in green) on the large face must cross an edge which is contiguous to the main edge (in red) at its extremity in order to be prolonged.

This is the case if the offset is small enough:

However, if the offset is larger, then there is NO intersection of the green border with an edge which is contiguous to the red edge you want to round. In this case, RoundCorner simply defaults to terminating the offset border at the orthogonal projection of the edge to round.

I can try to do something about it, but anyway, it will create problems on the shape which have no easy solution.

You may want to redraw the shaping so that you arrange the first edge on the curved part is longer than the offset.

As an alternative, you can try to use Subdivide and Smooth, which operates on a different approach and is less sensitive to the geometry of edge and faces.

ok,I understand))
thank you very much for this plugin)))

Hi there. I've had no problem installing you other great plugins. However I can't get the round corners to work. The icon shows up in the menus but when I try to click on a surface, nothing happens. I've followed your instructions in installing but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
