[Plugin][$] JointPushPull Interactive - v4.8a - 30 Mar 24
-
You have the new AND old versions of JointPushPull listed.
Disable the older one and restart and see if that helps.
If so, then remove its .rb file permanently from the Plugins folder: it is not normally meant to load side by side with the newer 'Fredo...' version.
Incidentally, what exactly are these listed items ?
Dialog Bulge Push Smooth Smudge Grab Planar LockI assume you do mean Extensions rather than Plugins ?
What does their description say ??Also giving us info in your SCF User Profile - about your OS and SketchUp version helps us help you
-
For info, the old and new versions of Joint Push Pull can safely coexist.
And all my plugin are enabled as active extension by default and have their Toolbar visible by default at first installation.I think the problem comes from a wrong installation, and anyway should be clarified by BruceG. What is the problem exactly?
- the plugin does not appear
- There is an error message at startup of Sketchup
- JPP 3.2 does crash or does nothing when launched,
- etc...
Without this information, it is difficult to assist.

To Undo, you can freely use Ctrl-Z within the plugin, or click on the Orange backtrack Arrow in the button palette.
To redo, select the faces you want to push-pull and just double click

As a brand new user to Fredo's tools I am sure that this is all incredibly amazing.
Only thing is that the GUI looks garbled on pretty much anything other than the standard DPI settings of Windows (which is much too low for nowadays high resolution screens):
This is with Windows screen DPI set to 125%.
Anyway, keep up the great work

Except the basic but robust graphic aspect does the functions are good working ?
-
Honestly, the obvious abundance of functions has frightend me off so far -- all the more since (additionally) I can't really seem to read what everything does. It's stupid I know, but maybe it is only decades of bad experience with garbled UI's that puts me off to even try and touch these tools.
-
Sure, it's a program inside program but..take your time to experiment!
Maybe there is inside the function that you have always dreamed!
-
Agree with Pilou 100% - the plugin writers on here are coming from dozens of different design backgrounds and cultures - so you can expect some individuality in interfaces (and some unique and different approaches to problems), and fredo's tools are great tools - out of all the tools I suggest you start on something like vector or normal (multi-face push-pull) they're pretty amazing all on their own, some serious time savers here.

Regards David.PIt is advised to keep a 100% resolution because the scripts have no control over the size of the text displayed in the GUI.
Some functions are also available in the VCB and contextual menus.

It is for you. please investigate the file.. Joint Push pull not working. giving error.
-
Thanks for signaling.
It is on my list to provide a safe generation mode, as a backup to the current generation mode (which is fast, but assumes the shape is not ill-formed).
For your model, the problem comes from a lot of lonely vertices (i.e. split edges).
I suggest you clean them up with, for instance, FredoTools::EdgeInspector or Thomthom's Cleanup.
Then the generation happens without error.

Use Fredo's Tools to 'Remove Lonely Vertices' - you have several unneeded vertices along the edges of the form.
These are very closely spaced and create overlapping extrusions making it fail
Retry JointPushPull on the corrected form - it will then work...I just tried it and it worked...
[Fredo beat me to it ! ] -
@ Fredo & TIG
I already cleaned that before you guys mentioned it but i thought i would be good to share it with you guys so that if it is happening because of any undiscovered reason it can be sorted out.
As far as having a lot of lonely vertices, it is because of the organic nature of modelling i am currently doing. i am doing a hotel project on the hill and a meandering road was also being modelled which is meant to access the hotel (the surface i sent was one face of a retaining wall coming along the road). I was doing it without cleaning up the geometry due to save time and end the end spent all the saved time due to problem.
... never mind since fredo is aware of the situation, a solution is inevitable. -
and bi the way fredo, how can i donate you? i don't have a credit card so facing problem... i wanted to donated to TIG to for cutNfill plugin but same problem happened. is there any other way? if no easy way out then i guess i need to figure out a credit card from any of my friend.
-
We'll both accept PayPal donations.
You can link those to a Bank-Account without any Credit-Card being needed... -
@ TIG.. i tried that.... i guess direct debit by paypal from bank account is not supported here in India. My bank account is connected to paypal but even then it asks for a credit card. it says bank account is to credit money into your account but for debit you need a card. may be i need to figure out a credit card only...

sorry I have this problem with the last version.

@ruf65,
Could you post or PM me the model. I found the problem but would like to check that this is cured.
Thanks
Fredo
