[Plugin][$] Curviloft 2.0a - 31 Mar 24 (Loft & Skinning)

helpandtrouble

Hey.

I have a issue.

I have used the Curviloft plugin for a while now to create what it calls loft junctions between surfaces based on spline curves. This have worked perfectly until about a week ago or so.
Since then it have refused to complete the "loft surface". Instead it just color the edges purple like it did previously when I had forgotten to select a surrounding edge, and it refuses to do anything beyond that. I've tried to completely delete the plugin and re-install, but it did not fix it. I'm still unable to get it to work.

I think the problem started around the same time that I installed the fredotools plugin, but I'm not sure. Regardless I tried to delete that too but that did not help either.

Could you open the Ruby console before launching Curviloft and see if there is any error message displayed while you do the selection in Curviloft.

Thanks

The Ruby Console window remained blank while I tried to use the curviloft plugin. I have not used this ruby function before so I was unsure whether I was supposed to write anything or not? Here is a screen-shot of it, which also shows how far I am able to use the curviloft command.

It would appear that you are using the wrong tool. Try the third tool on the toolbar instead.

Hm, It can't seems like you are right, but I could swear that I used the same tools previously. Maybe I just had a brain fart. Rather embarrassing.

How did you install Curviloft and Round Corner? Did you also install LibFredo6?

Not sure where my first post went...

Having a similar problem on a mac (OS 10.5.8) running SU7. Here is are pictures of the error dialogue, the Plugins folder, and the first several entries in the libFredo6 folder. Picture 2.png Picture 3.png Picture 4.png

Hi Fredo, Is there anyway to override the default settings in the toolbar? (even hardcoded!)

like this?

@Doopy

Have you installed the latest versions of the RBZ files for the various Fredo Plugins and his LibFredo ?
Restart SketchUp after installation to ensure everything is getting meshed together properly...

BUT...
I suspect that it's because although your profile lists SUp v8, your post says that are using SUp v7 which is the issue.
Even v8 is no longer supported by Trimble - there are many changes in the way Ruby code now works !

Why haven't you upgraded to a newer version ?

More than one Sketchup version can be installed coexist on the same computer, and you can always save_as from v2017 into any earlier version compatible format...

And while we are on the note of modifications, any chance for a tutorial on how to use this plug-in on our Linux based systems? I see that some of the libraries that it requires are already part of Linux but all instructions are reserved to Windows and Mac so far. I need to start creating new renders for http://promocodius.com/tr/magazalar/trendyol-indirim-kuponu soon to avoid fines for copyright reasons but if I will not be able to find a way of installing this plug-in on the office laptop, I will be restricted to the stupid old Inkscape and its plug-ins. Since you are all here, you should already know that the two bears no comparison...

I had the same problem.

The solution is to reinstall the latest version of Curviloft or any other Fredo6 tools, but ONLY AFTER the latest LibFredo is installed.
