          I'm on a Mac and I can't get curv a loft to install properly. I get an error message when I start SU. I copied everything to the plug in directory including the separate library download. There is an entry in the windows dropdown but no tool bar available. Can someone help me with this...I really need to start using the plug in for a project

            If you get an error message related to the plugin when you first start SU, you've installed the plugin incorrectly. Since you told us what the error message is, it is impossible to diagnose beyond that. Correct installation has been covered repeatedly in this thread. Please read through it. Fredo's first post shows the footprint of the plugin. Make sure it matches on your machine.

              It looks really cool, but I can't install it:(
              As you wrote I install also Libfredo pack and .rb
              but I don't have pligin in SU.
              When I open SS I have info with load error:

              what's the problem????
              I copy all files to my plugin folder in SU, (as usually with plugins).
              But only this doesn't work.

                You installed it incorrectly. You copied all the files out into the Plugins folder instead of leaving them in the Curviloft folder as they should be. This has been covered repeatedly in this thread. Go back to the beginning and look at the footprint Fredo shows for the plugin. Make it look that way on your computer.

                        Hello everybody,

                        When I installed this plugin on my MacBook Pro with Retina it worked great but it did not look like it is suppose to look. It would be very great if this wil be fixed! 😄
                        I put an image of how it looks in the attachments.

                            Hey thanks for this plugin Fredo. It's by far my favorite surface generating plugin. Great work.

                                That's due to a limitation in the SketchUp API. Screen text take on the colour of your edges. You'd have to temporarily use a different style that doesn't have a white edges.

                                @Fredo: one workaround for you could be to detect the edge colour setting and swap between light and dark background.

                                    Any progress on implementing a contour error check and reporting ❓ ❓ ❓

                                    I just spent an hour redrawing almost the entire contour, endpoint to endpoint to eliminate a single totally invisible .001 inch extra line fragment error. Yet when I first selected the lines using Skinning, I got solid yellow all around. Hitting the Checkmark either gave me a red perimeter, or nothing at all.

                                    I also noticed that if I am selecting edges using the Skinner, and zoom in past seeing the edges selected, when I pan or zoom out the selection (yellow) sometimes get lost and the next line selected is red or purple. If I reselect the lines they are okay, and the previous selections reappear.

                                      I provided some elements of cleansing in Curvizard::Clean up. Part of it is integrated into Curviloft as well (you may get a message).

                                        I really need to spend some time to learn some new tricks. Curvizard is in my update SU list, like a bunch of other stuff. 😒
