Multiple segment editor plugin

pilou

About the number of segments
Curiously only Ruby console works and only for the Arcs!
Circles are ignored!
Menu makes nothing!
(tested on V7 free)

Works fine for me in both v8 & v2013.
From menu OR Console for both Arcs & Circles
Any Ruby Console errors?

It should change Arcs & Circles - BUT of course connected geometry can prevent changes being made - just like with Entity Info's limitations.

Try it on lone a lone unconnected Circle and report back...

For one a several arcscircles selected : all works fine in the Ruby Console!

For one a several arcscircles selected nothing happen with the menu!

For one a several circles selected this error is happening with Ruby Console

Error: #<NoMethodError: C:/Program Files/Google/TGoogle SketchUp 7/Plugins/ArcCurve-set_segments=.rb:65:in set_segments=': undefined method is_polygon?' for #Sketchup::ArcCurve:0x1104e140>
C:/Program Files/Google/TGoogle SketchUp 7/Plugins/ArcCurve-set_segments=.rb:65

For one a several circles selected nothing happen with the menu!

All this is very curious because seems in the old past all worked fine
Maybe the new API ?

(Tested with Su 7 free)

.is_polygon?
was introduced in v8 ?
This checks if a looped curve is a polygon OR a circle...

I had made an API addition that was dropped when it became part of the new API...

So if you are trying to work on circles, then sadly it's >=v8 use only then...
UNLESS you also include this attached rb file in your <v8 Plugins folder!!!

[mod=:1cut554m]Removed the attachment - better version in next few posts...

with the new file test added
Must have the 2 rb files ArcCurve-set_segments=.rb and ArcCurveTests.rb installed ?
(it that I made)

2 circles and an arc-circle selected
Menu : Nothing happen

and with the ruby console
nothing change and this error message
TIG.changearcsegments 64
Error: #<ArgumentError: C:/Program Files/Google/TGoogle SketchUp 7/Plugins/ArcCurve-set_segments=.rb:61:in `is_loop?': wrong number of arguments(1 for 0)>
C:/Program Files/Google/TGoogle SketchUp 7/Plugins/ArcCurve-set_segments=.rb:61

for only an arc-circle selected
Menu : Nothing happen
same error message on the ruby console
TIG.changearcsegments 64
Error: #<ArgumentError: C:/Program Files/Google/TGoogle SketchUp 7/Plugins/ArcCurve-set_segments=.rb:61:in `is_loop?': wrong number of arguments(1 for 0)>
C:/Program Files/Google/TGoogle SketchUp 7/Plugins/ArcCurve-set_segments=.rb:61

TIG

OK, another issue is .is_loop? is causing problems.
I've bodge up a new version - test it and report back...
It should now be compatible with this tool, other tools and v7 & other versions

ArcCurveTests.rb

pilou

You were very efficicient!

All is perfect! Menu or / and console
Works even you choose other things inside the selection!
(tested on SU 7 free)

Bravo!

I've now incorporated this updated ArcCurveTests.rb in the 'segemnt-setting' tool's PluginStore RBZ for the tool, as it works 'backwards' down to v7...
