[Plugin] EdgeInspector - v1.2a - 12 Oct 14

pipinek

Empty window.

Greetings,

When I select some edges and apply the Edgeinspector tool I have an empty window with no content:

What could be wrong here (except the problem between my chair and a screen)?
Thank you in advance.

Hello Fredo,

It is quite strange, the image is visible on my equipment:

@pipinek,

There must be a bug. Could you please open the Ruby Console before launching EdgeInspector and tell me the error you see.

Thanks

Fredo

pipinek

Thanks Fredo for your reaction,

Here is the result, well no result at all. The Ruby Console is empty.
I have launched RConsole, selected a rectangle and activated Edgeinspector tool.

PS
I have just noticed that on the other PC with apparently with the same plugin set and configuration (SU 2015) the plugin works well.
Bizarre. Is the any potential conflict to take into consideration?
If yes what shall I check?

Thank you in advance for your kind assistance Fredo.

fredo6

Did you try without edge preselection ?

Fredo

pipinek

Do you mean Whole Model?
Same results. Empty Edge Inspector box.

I have found the following in Ruby Console (I typed before several SU sessions: 'edgeinspector' - the Ruby Content has stil remained there):

edgeinspector
Error: #<NameError: undefined local variable or method edgeinspector' for main:Object> <main>:in <main>'
SketchUp:1:in `eval'

Finally I have managed it to work by a crazy chance.
I have change something in option shrink... by clicking on a tiny square. Now I have an option bar for each tool including Edge Inspector box content.

I have another issue with Drawalong tool though.
I cannot assign a letter/keyboard shortcut to it.
Any combination I have tried (my prefered a letter D) when typed it opens a web browser with a youtube page with instruction video.

Is there any solution to the issue, any possibility to have a key shortcut to Drawalong tool?

I think that in the Preferences - Short Cut dialog box, you filter with "DrawAlong". This shows the Video menu.
You should filter with "Draw Along", with a space, which will display the main command.

Huge thanks.

It does work as you have described.
But you have to admit that its a too tricky for an everyman user. The tool name is DrawAlong (no space).

I will be aware such possibilities in the future.

Best regards with my gratitude for your responses.

fredo6

Glad it works now.
Actually, the best is to look first at the menu text and apply the filter accordingly.

Fredo

pipinek

Indeed this is the best way.
Alas, I am not the one.

Thank you once more for your assistance and your marvellous works.

Bonjour,
Edge Inspector v3.3b semble ne pas fonctionner correctement sur SU 2019 (Installé depuis SketchUcation).
Au lancement de l'outil, la fenêtre affichée est incomplète, tel que le montre la capture d'écran jointe.
J'ai désinstallé FredoTools, puis réinstallé sans succès.
Je joins également le rapport de la console Rubis, en espérant que cela aide.
D'avance merci pour toute aide.

Thanks for advising. I fixed it in FredoTools v3.3c. This is actually an incompatibility introduced with the new version of Ruby that is shipped with SU2019.

Effectivement, la version 3.3b fonctionne parfaitement dans SU 2018, mais je viens d'installer la version 3.3c dans SU 2019, et tout est rentré dans l'ordre.
Encore un grand MERCI pour la rapidité de cette mise à jour, et pour l'ensemble de votre travail.

Could not detect and/or fix these tiny gaps in diagonal lines. See attached file (screen shot). What am I doing wrong?

Could you post or send me the model.

May be normal, or maybe not....

In the screenshot and SU model, in terms of EdgeInspector defects, what are these "spaces" in the diagonal lines called (tiny gaps, lost junctions, etc.)?

ct103stu0

I posted the model in the SU Forum. The model is located here:

Edge Gaps - Driving Me Crazy

Using Edge Tools 2 > Close All Edge Gaps, the extension connects the diagonal ends horizontally instead of diagonally to the horizontal base line. Also tried Fredo Tools > Edge Inspector, no luck. Tried various gap setti…

This is a 2019 SU model. Tried to send you the 2017 SU model via the board but the file size is too large.

Thanks ,,,

I posted my answer in the Sketchup Forum too.
