[Plugin] Face2Frame - Updated 27-Mar-2014
-
I get the same results, if I select an option, and then hit enter, or not make any selections at all.
-
something is broken... I don't have this issue. can you try removing all your plugins except this one and restarting SU. just as an experiment.
-
Also post your option settings - it might be a units issue ?
-
And what version of OS and SU are you running?
-
question regarding this tool...whats the edge tool, CorG tool and Misc tool?
Did I miss something?Nice framer though.

No you didn't miss anything. I created the various sub-menus as a way of seperating the vari0us plugins of mine.

Please open the Ruby Console and then run the plugin. An error is occurring and this will tell me what it is.

Nice blog! You have so many plugins! You now have the dubious distinction of being in my favorites under SU Ruby!

LUCKY ME !

Thanks for all the replies !!
I uninstalled the plugin, and then reinstalled, by saving to my desktop and then dropping in to my plugins folder. I am still getting the same results.
I am running Windows 7 / SU 8
I haven't tried removing all my other plugins, and restarting SU yet.
I am hoping that the ruby console will shed some light on my problem, before I go through removing all the plugins.Thanks,
Wayne

You have helpfully posted the RC error message BUT you have scrolled it, so the most important lines telling us what has just happened are missing.
Could you recreate the error and post the entire error message again.
Once we know what the error says then sdmitch can probably go
and see what to trap/fix...I doubt very much it is a clash - more likely a simply coding error that occurs when particular parameters are chosen for a certain form of face etc... I'd expect it to be relatively easy to fix once the full RC error is known
-
Don't worry about the RC message...
I now see that an RC screenshot that was posted earlier shows the error to be in line #433...
pts<<p.offset(xa,dx/2).offset(ya,-dy).offset(za,(dx*@tpcnt+0.01)***sign**(v.z))
The method 'sign' is not defined in the tool's code and it's not a standard Ruby method either BUT it is defined in DC stuff... so perhaps users with the DC extension loaded will get it working OK anyway... or maybe another tool that not all users have is making it ? No unencrypted script is making it, so it must be an rbs file ?It is only called once in the whole file...
The way to find the 'sign' of a value would be work for everyone as:
...*((v.z)<=>0)OR you could add a new method into this tool's code, so if you use it more than once
def sign(n=0) return n<=>0 endUsage:
*sign(n)Sdmitch to fix !
It's easily sorted... -
Tig,
Thanks for your response, but I must admit coding is greek to this carpenter, I did attach a shot of the ruby console,scrolled in the proper position, in case it helps any.I also added a shot of my plugin folder, to see if anything in there would help.
Thanks for everyone's help

That is the 'sign' error.
Which means for some reason you do not have the 'sign' function added to Ruby by some other tool...
It's easily fixed by editing the script at line #433.
I have PM'd you [and Sdmitch] a working copy...
BUT Sdmitch ought to fix it officially and post an update... -
Sorry about the sign function problem that some have experienced. It never was a problem for me.
A new version with TIG's fix has been posted.
-
Thank You sdmitch and TIG, the updated plugin work perfectly.
This place is such a wealth of knowledge and sharing!!!
Now off to sdmitch's blog, to check out some of the very cool sounding plugins........
Have A Great Day!!!!!

Glad it's fixed.
I've never come across this 'sign()' method before, although I can confirm that I have it auto-loaded into my Sketchup Ruby, even without DCs loading, and there's no 'sign' of it in any RB scripts I have that I've grepped - so I suspect an unidentified RBS file adds it, and if a user doesn't have that loading then they are screwed...
I'd be interested to learn where 'sign()' originates...Meanwhile using the 'comparator'
n<=>0returns either 0, 1 or -1: which, when used with * effectively uses the 'sign' of the number'n' in a calculation, without passing its real numerical 'value'.
