      On a regular basis, I look at the New Posts on the SketchUcation Forum. Recently there was a request
      @unknownuser said:

      Is there pluging for expanding/making face along line/edges?

      I thought this might be a fun exercise so created a plugin of my own that would attempt to do this. After numerous tries, finally success or so I thought. The next attempt failed but the next succeeded. Why? I hadn't changed a thing. A demonstration of what I'm puzzled about follows. As you can see, no errors are ever reported to the Ruby Console.

      I have found most, if not all, of my stupid coding mistakes and happy to say that things are much better.

      Nothing is worthless, it can always be used as a bad example.

          Makes as much sense as anything else!

              I don't have time to dissect your code in detail...
              But it seems to me you are replicating my Latticeizer plugin ?
              Look at that... http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=Latticeizer
              You need to offset the perimeters of the edges' faces [which sometimes fails, just like native-offset - so it perhaps needs my Smart_Offset?]
              It's NOT easy...

                Don't waste your time dissecting it since this is a just for fun exercise. I have found a number of bugs but have a few more to go. I have no intention of publishing it since, as you say, there is Latticeizer and others already out there.
