[Plugin] TIG-Smart_offset
-
TIG, marry Xmas and thank you for this great present.
P.S. Could you take a look at attached?
P.P.S. a. It'd be neat if this tool was mode-less (I mean replicating the native SU behavior)
b. a number of offset option???
-
Thank you TIG and Merry Christmas!
This one is a difficult task.
-
Thank you, Santa TIG. Milk and cookies will await you Xmas morning.
Any chance of having:
1- a "Weld Offset" option button in the dialog
or
2- have the offset automatically welded if its source-edges were made from the circle, arch, polygon tools or previously "welded" edges?Regards, John

Thanks TIG! I don't think I could have asked for a better Christmas/World not ending present!
-
Thanks for this great plugin.
Would it be very difficult to have it work as an interactive tool also using the measurement toolbar instead of the pop up window so it can replace the native tool all together? -
Here's v1.5 http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=446462#p446462
There's some code improvements and fewer fails etc.
Some of the requested changes like 'holes', welded-outlines and VCB input will have to wait...Merry Xmas...

Then you can use Offset on Surfacewhich shows interactively the offset profile and allow to type the offset distance in the VCB. Still many glitches with convoluted contours however.

Excess loop ...

Looking at ways of minimizing this, and offsetting curves as curves...
Watch this space... -
Here's v1.6 http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=446462#p446462
Curves/Arcs are now offset as curves in the offset-outline...
Speed improved.
Glitches avoided.A Very Extra-Merry Xmas to you all...

TIG,
this, in the latest version (1.6) of your very useful tool.
(windows 7 - Last Updated SketchUp).
regards,

Error Again

Error Again
the 48.4 dimension was not taken 'legitimately' (you should measure from the center of the arch segment perpendicular to offset segment)
-
Two steps forward one step back...
Another 'fix' is in the mixer...

hi tig,
just send something thru paypal, is 5 p. ok ?i am trying the offset-script, but have some problems, i cannot solve
drawing new curves : ruby works
in my actual project a have to insert lots of curves for landscape modelling.
i created a hole in an existing mesh >> extrqacted the borders of this hole >>
projected these border to a plane (sandbox) >> converted the borderline to- polygon
- curve
but somehow the script does not create offsets here (standard sketchup offset works - with all its mistakes)
i attach the planes, maybe you can check it
i work in skp 6
thanx and regards stan

Thanks TIG,
I don't use a lot of plugins but I think this one will be very useful. Happy New Year to you.

@Stan, any donation is more than welcome... I assume you meant ยฃ5 because 5p=~8ยข...
I think I have a fix for your probable issue - these 3m inset/outset offsets worked OK with a new version that I am working on [native fails with twisted parts].
It fixes some issues with multi-curve loops and also some curves that straddle a loop's start/end vertex not all offsetting as curves...
So far it seems to trap various permutations of offset size and loop contents and convolutions, that have been some unexpected causing issues...
I hope to have that version ready for release tomorrow...

Merry Xmas TIG. This looks awesome!

Here's v1.7 http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=446462#p446462
Further glitches and convoluted offsets trapped.
I am hopeful this will address most issues reported to date...
Happy New Year !
[arriving shortly... ]
