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

Yes, I figured that out and used Firefox which doesn't do the HTML thing on spaces.

Now the files come out with dates on. I found Fredos instructions (see attached image) and renamed the folders accordingly as the names were differently written on mine but that just gave me an error on opening SketchUp about it now being able to load the plugins, at which point I gave up and trashed them. There is some problem on Mac with unzipping these particular files and I don't know why. I unzip stuff all the time without the file names getting messed up like this.

@RHD: Try this installation utility and see if that makes the process easier: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?t=42315

Installs on MAC (10.6.8) as RoundCorner%202; LibFredo6 v4 comes in as LibFredo%204. I assume the %20 is a "space" but removal does nothing. Where am I going wrong?

Go back and look at the first post. It shows you what the file footprint should be. It sounds to me as if you haven't extracted the contents of the downloaded ZIP files correctly.

Regarding problem with installation: SOLVED! Safari was unzipping the files automatically and including a %20 (SPACE) in the filename; I was also "dragging" the downloaded directories into the Plugin directory on my MAC. Solved the issue by use of Firefox which downloaded the files as intact .zip files. But, I had to move the unzipped directories (which wound up below the Plugin directory) into the Plugin directory itself, as shown in the Windows image on the first post. Now the real fun can commence. Thanx.

pretty cool.

I can't get the round corner to work no matter what I try. The other stuff like Fredo taper and scale work great. But all this does for me is literally explode (not the ungroup kind)every thing I apply it on. Its installed properly. Sketchup pro 8 here. Any thoughts would be appreciated thanks.

Dave R · 30 Jun 2012, 10:48

Your description doesn't give us much to go on. Could you post an SKP file with before and after examples showing us what you mean by "explode"? Maybe you could tell us what settings you're using for rounding? Give us something useful so we can help you.

I am running windows 7 and using the latest version of sketchup pro. My plugins are all working well, but when I log off as an administrator to my personal user name, the round corner plugin stops working while all the other Fredo6 plugins work fine. I click the icon and nothing happens. Any ideas?

Dave R · 19 Jul 2012, 10:09

Megan, do you have administrator privileges under your own log in to add files to the Plugins folder? Did you install the other plugins while logged in under your user name and Round Corner while logged in as Administrator? What happens if, while logged in as you, you reinstall Round corner?

Hi,
I'm trying to install the round corner plugin but it just wont work.
I've installed LibFredo6 4.6 in the plugins folder, then Round Corner 2.3
I even tried unistalling everything (including sketchup and all of its folders) and installing again, and nothing...
Then I tried deleting the date that came on the name of the folders available for download at the begining of this post and again, nothing...
I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.8 and Sketchup 8 (free version).
Can someone please help me.
Thanx

You haven't actually installed them.

The two subfolders [called 'LibFredo...' and 'RoundCorner...'] that you show are what the extraction of the zipped archive produces - the package - if you will.

Inside those folders are the files and subfolders containing other files that auto-load and make the tool available to you when you restart Sketchup.

So these need to be in the 'plugins' folder - not left inside the package that they came in.

So move these two folders onto your Desktop... then move their contents back into the 'plugins' folder.
Ensure that all files in the subfolders stay inside those subfolders, when they are moved - it is another frequent error - to move the items out of subfolders - which will surely break everything - because the .rb 'loaders' files expect to find these files in the subfolders, which are supplied with the tool, and also sometimes extra 'support' files in additional 'libraries' - like in the case of this tool !

Finally got the plugin installed. Now it crashes when I try to use it. First plugin I've got so nothing's conflicting. I'm using vista.

Dave R · 5 Aug 2012, 19:51

It's probably not installed correctly. Post a screen shot of your Plugins directory.

Ok here it is:

Before I installed this plugin though, Sketchup crashes for me a lot anyway. I have to save every minute or so.
