[Plugin Library] LibFredo6 - v14.7a - 09 Nov 24

[fboth]

Thank you Fredo,

yes it works now!!

I got another Problem, when I round the Corners of a cube, I get holes in the Corners, how to avoid this? And if I select one Corner after the other, as I do not want to round all Corners of the case, I get sometimes holes sometimes there is some material left I mean the rounding does not go around the new round Corner in the Corner.

If the faces are too small, they are not created. You can try to scale your model up (100x, 1000x) before you use the plugin.

Have you installed a fresh [latest] copy of this Lib ?
Perhaps from the PluginStore...
IF you have ill-advisedly copied an older version into v2014 it probably WILL break everything...
Authors have just spent the last three months working with Trimble to discreetly update their plugins to ensure that they also work in v2014, so please ensure you get the latest versions... and NEVER blindly copy things across - some of them will just NOT work !
Get the latest version of every Plugin and then winge if that one doesn't work...

thanks for TIG
of course I install the newest fredo's Plugins, and before that I have cleaned the elder fredos
Perhaps because I have some old plugins using @ 2014
but, even I delete all the elder plugins, the libfredo6 still like that.....

[Dave R]

Unc, I think you still haven't got the current version or is it possible you have some strange characters in your user name? There are some characters that aren't allowed.

[unclex]

even like this......

[fantoosh420]

Same problem here. i re-downloaded libfredo 5.7a to check but still giving problem.

[fantoosh420]

Fixed the problem.

It was caused by older version of round corner (version 2.5a).

I removed all the fredo plugins and libfredo from the directory C:\Users\Amit\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2014\SketchUp\Plugins.

Then installed libfredo first and restarted sketchup. it gave no error implying that libfredo 5.7a was not the reason for problem

then i installed each plugin one by one and it finally came to round corner.

it should also be noted that previously i installed older version of round corner (2.5a) and then installed newer version of it (2.6a) assuming that it will upgrade round corner but it was giving problem. then i repeated the process after removing all fredo plugins and it was again giving problem. third time, i removed all fredo plugins and then i installed the latest version of round corner (2.6a)without going through upgrading process, it was running fine. so probably it has something to do with version 2.5a of round corner that is giving problem.

[Dave R]

It sounds like the problem is due to installing old versions of plugins. As has been covered repeatedly here on SCF, it isn't a good idea to install old copies of plugins to new installs of SketchUp. The same advice was given when SU2013 first came out and it applies to SU2014, too.

[unclex]

my problem is still there
perhaps because this:
My system is Win7X64Chinese, but I installed su2014en

[Dave R]

So you finally tell us something that might be useful. You're right. It could be that's the cause.

Did you tried the technique i discribed? Please follow exact process and after installing each rbz, restart sketchup 2014. this would help us nail exact reason. It would be good not only for your case but also for larger cause. Sketchup is going through a lot of changes these days and its plugins too has to cope up. Figuring out exact cause would help people who are not so good with these frequently changing folder structure and nomenclaure of sketchup and/or its plugins and hence are making mistakes.

guanjin,

You probably checked the box "Retina screen" in the default parameters of LibFredo6. This is why.

Fredo

[unclex]

OK
I Fix it
In This File： Lib6PluginDialogs.rb

I replaced all the left or right ‘’ to “

non-english characters should not be a problem any more as Ruby 2.0 should be able to handle that.
