            dedmin,

            Would you mind to post or PM me the model.

            This looks like a bug linked to the geometry.

            Thanks

            Fredo

                  What is skp9?

                  You have to give some useful details if you want help. Post the SketchUp model and describe exactly what you were trying to accomplish.

                  I just tried it and it works for me without crashing.

                          hey Fredo,

                          I'm experiencing the problem of curves exploding upon welding another curve on the same object.. the attached .skp should allow you to see this in a repeatable manner (at least, the model shows the problem on both of my computers)

                          MakeCurvesProblem.skp


                          with nothing pre-selected, use the function 'Make Curves (weld)' with the following settings:

                          Screen Shot 2014-02-01 at 10.46.15 AM.png

                          ..click on one of the 3 border curves of the object.
                          -exit tool.. the curve has been welded.
                          -run the function again but use it on another edge.
                          -exit tool.. this new edge is now a curve but the other one has now exploded.


                          the .skp is saved as a v8 file but i'm using the plugin in a newer version of sketchup.. the Curvizard version i'm using is 1.5a with LibFredo 5.5g

                          thanks

                            Jeff,

                            There seems to be several problems in this model

                            • Curvizard (nor Curviloft) cannot select some of the edges in the bottom right corner
                            • yes, curves are unwelded when you make a new one.

                            I'll have a closer look and advise.

                            Do you notice that on other models?

                            Fredo

                              thanks for looking into it.

                              yes, i notice it on other models sometimes but it was this particular part of a drawing in which the behavior was very noticeable/repeatable..

                              fwiw, the side profile edge came from a .3ds import via rhino and the surface was then made/revolved via TIG's lathe tool.. i'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.. i also mapped the surface with thruPaint but deleted the texture prior to uploading.. so the surface may still have some custom UV applied?


                              [EDIT] i just tried drawing a similar model in sketchup only.. i still used TIGs lathe to revolve the surface but no texturing or imported curves were used.. same problem.

                                  well, i just recently started trying curvizard as my all-situation weld tool.. previously i was using recurve in the situation presented here.. hence the late find πŸ˜‰

                                      sweet. that's working now.

                                      i did notice another peculiar behavior which occurs once lines have been welded but it's going to take me a bit of time to get the appropriate screenshots/description together.. and i don't have that much time right now.. if i don't get to it tonight, i'll post tomorrow
                                      thanks

                                        In Sketchup, Curves have the strong constraint that they cannot cross each other, except at their extremities. So, if you apply a Make Curve to a model globally, you will likely get atomic curves (for instance, a cube will results in just its individual edges to become curves).

                                        Curvizard can do bulk Make Curve on the selection, including in Groups and Components. But it will work better, and as expected, on a set of contours, where there is no ambiguity on which edges to assemble as curves.

                                        Fredo
