Very, very thank you. Fredo. You are the master!!!

Cubcrafter

To anyone that can help and guide me on this.

Attached is a grading plan of a piece of land that I am working with. I imported this from a 2d dwg file. I made a group of the contours and when I run the plugin I can't get it to show any grade variations and there are some extra lines that show up in red.

I don't follow why some lines are green and others are not.

The large flat open area is where I am placing a building and parking lot.

Just not sure how to go about this.

This file is saved as V8 but I am working in 2013Pro.

Thanks,

Larry

What I get when running the plugin

unearthed

cubcrafter - many of the lines have gaps in them (double click any line and normally you'd get the entire line; not the case with many of your lines) - get thee to http://www.smustard.com/script/StrayLines and you'll find a free tool to help you find them. Then you can join them manually by adding lines to the gaps, it's worth running this on any imported ACAD (or any dxf or dwg file) import.

OR this (US20.00) plugin helps you close them http://www.smustard.com/script/CloseOpens - well worth the money I'd say.

Here's a discussion on the issue http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=24427&p=211465&hilit=lines+joined+gaps#p211465

Is anyone else having the following problem with TopoShaper?...

When I click on my contour group, it goes into Cleansing mode, but the Cleansing dialogue box (across the top) is missing. It's just not there.

If I then Right-Click on the contours, and choose "Go to the Calculation and Preview of the Terrain", it runs the calculation and jumps into Preview mode, and the Preview dialogue box DOES show up.

Anyone know what's going on, or if there's a solution??

Thanks.
Dave.

PS - I'm using SU 2013 on Windows 7

Follow up to my above Post.

This happens on ANY model.

I opened the Ruby Console, and ran it again. The Ruby Console kind of went nuts, and just started scrolling the following over and over, until I Right-Clicked and choose "Go to the Calculation and Preview of the Terrain". Then it stopped scrolling, and the script functioned normally.

Any ideas on what's happening??

Not sure what it is.
Could you re-upgrade to the latest version...

...or wait a little bit (Tomorrow) as I will publish a new version which includes an Altitude Editor.

Great! Fredo. But I have a question. How to change the Altitude Editor's units?

Units are those of the model.
So just change the model units.

Note: in dialog boxes, you can enter value with any unit, for instance '45m', even if the model units are not meters

Dear Fredo,

After the installation, now get this error message. After I've seen in the plugins directory I am now very confused. I do not know what I must do. I also tried the Fredo6_ LibFredo6 - v5.4a - 13.rbz November 7 to install but without success.

Fredo,
Amazing plugin.
Your plugins really help my work flow go smoother.
Thank you,

@Karlheinz...

Are your Plugins folder's permissions set to FULL ?

Have you definitely installed the latest version of the Lib from the Plugin Store..
AND the new Top toolset ?
Get the RBZ versions and compare the contents ...

Then restart SketchUp.

If you get error messages thereafter, then report back

You should delete the Libfredo files and folders which do not begin with Fredo6_...

Thanks Tig, thanks Cotty,

the deletion of the mentioned files solved the Problem.

Good news, Fredo! I upgraded to your latest version (with Altitude Editor), and all seems to be fixed. I do not have the Cleansing bug when I start the script.

The Altitude Editor is a BRILLIANT edition.

Thanks for all the amazing work!
Dave.
