THX FOR THIS PLUGIN

Hi there

So I'm using this a lot, umm is there a way to 'disable' the initial [Uniform B-Spline] dialog (with the Order parameter), so it would stay at the default '0' / automatic, or whatever value [without the dialog]?

Cheers

Hi.
After reading gonashvili's post above, I opened Sketchup8 to test the spline. I placed an initial spline in an empty scene with 0 default setting. Then began to place another, but changed the parameter to 10 and OK. I got a bugsplat window. I captured the window and the response. Interestingly, I immediately repeated the process and got no error.
Sorry, if the two images appear out of order. The splat window is first and the response window is supposed to be second.

Also, apology to gonashvili for jumping in here. I was simply investigating.

Thank you for the correction.
If it could also be chosen on which line T-bones is formed. Right now it's only on a longer one.

This is not possible with the current GUI. The only thing you can do is to place intermediate points to control the respective lengths of segments at corner.

Also, I publish a small upgrade (1.6d) to make sure T-bones appears when one of the segment has the required minimum length.

Is there any way to convert multiple welded lines (contours for example) to segmented lines with set segment lengths? I have used Bezier Spline in the past to get better "From Contour" results by converting contour lines one at a time to lines made with consistent segment lengths. This works considerably better than the "simplify contours" plugin that still creates snow drifts all over the place.

EDIT, kinda related... here is a video I created showing how to use the Polyfit LISP (from polyface.de) in Autocad to ultimately get a more efficient model to do a From Contour in SketchUp.

(Easier to see in HD directly on Youtube, also jump to the 3:40 mark to see the polyfit part.)

I've done a similar thing using BezierSpline with the Polyline Divider option, but I need to weld and apply the tool to each contour line rather than all at once with the Polyfit LISP.

Awesome plugin.

Is there any option or method to make a spline's ends to be tangent to a straight line?

Wonderful plugin! Is there a way to keep a tool persistent like in the tools on surface plugin?

How would I install the plugin for Sketchup 2014 ?

The strongly suggested method is that you first install the Sketchucation PluginStore tool, so that you can easily and safely install any plugin.

Then, you can auto-install Bezierspline and all other plugins in one click.

so, I just installed the plugin, but as soon as I try to use it with sketch up (my version is sketchup pro 2014, the toolbar that appears is just empty. I hope you understand my problem as I'm not a native english speaker. we tried pretty much everything to make it work, but we simply can't. I hope you can help!

How did you install it ?
Sounds like some files are missing...
Please reinstall it using the PluginStore's AutoInstall tool, OR if you have the RBZ, then use it with v2014's Preferences > Extensions > Install... button...
Also note that many of Fredo's tools need LibFredo - also install the latest version of that [also available at the PluginStore...].
Restart after the installing to ensure everything is synchronized...
