[Plugin] Drop Vertices

simon le bon

Bonjour TIG

OK, I was confused on the concepts Drape/Drope.

I have discovered that the kind of subdivision is important. Until now I was trying to drape with some classical triangulated shapes and that's why the result wasn't working.

As I have seen with your example above it was possible, I have discovered that shapes must be subdivided by real tin subdivision.(as far)

(I see we can't obtain this way something like we can do with sandboxtool/Stamptool but with a 3D path.)

Anyway This DropVertices brings so much !!!!+++ Thank you one more time and bravo!! TIG

Dear Adam,
your videos are invaluable to understand easily how things work and as reminders.
I have watched your previous a number of times.

I'm studying your propositions (soapskin&buble _ instant road (which makes the deal ) and I'm thinking to others. It's for tomorrow now.

Cheers,

   simon.

Like 'On Screen Rolling Reel' - 'SplitUp' has never been published.
It's in beta testing with a select group [Rich O'B].
The bugs are now ironed out... I'll speak with the other[s] to see what we should do next...

Don't forget my NURBS plugin that's fairly stable. Just too powerful for mere mortals.

What did I wrong here?

Scant on what you've tried...
arcs/curves do not drop unless they are exploded first...
but see this example...

TIG

Here is v2.0 http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=dropverts It now overcomes the curve issue.
All edges in a dropped curve are now treated as separate edges.

Thank you, nice update!

Does it possible to imagine a "drop" on X or Y direction ?
(sure I can rotate all before but...)

Hi TIG,
I found that To Middle and To average do not work.
Console indicates that line 93 z=z.to_s.to_l if z is faulty; cannot convert to length.
I changed it to z=z.to_f if z . (float) They now work.
Is this right ?

In this port are functions for the 3 axis.
I tried to stick to the actual extension standards.
Re-named it since it does more than just drop.
Added LanguageHandler, french. And a contextual menu for the most frequent ones I use.
