    You are right. Actually, the result is correct mathematically. In the algorithm, negative volumes are normally used for holes in solids. But intuitively, we are not used to negative volumes.

    So, I fixed it, and it will go in the next release.

      These are not holes in solids, if you want I can email you my model for analysis.
      Its a marble stone cut list, and some of the stones are reporting back as negative volumes.

        I mean that when you flip along a group or component instances, you actually transform their axes and mathematically, this gives a negative volume, as it does for holes in the solid.

        Anyway, many thanks for signalling the problem.

          I wish Curvishear could be become way more usable by
          letting user 'in-vivo' move a vertex (and thus setting desired height and slope direction)

            Bonjour Dave
            Je confirme que "Volume Solides" affiche une valeur négative pour toute instance crée en miroir.
            Ce problème n'est pas spécifique à SU 2017, l'ayant déjà constaté sous SU 2016 et SU 2015.
            Je joint un Gif crée sous SU 2017.

                Divide Edges (DE) is a nice new addition to your toolset. Thank you!

                Perhaps a version of DE could be adapted to produce dashed lines? When selected only an ODD number of segments would be available, then every-other-segment after the first segment would be deleted or hidden (not sure which would be the best to go). Maybe it could be "parametric" in the sense that the user could restore the original at later time and apply and different number of segments.

                    MoveAlong question:
                    How difficult would it be to implement
                    a Multiple objects move (rotate?) by their local axes?

                      Should be a dedicated tool.

                      MoveAlong is already complex, and I did not add the move along local axes (there are inferences however), as I did in Animator.

                      That's not a matter of programming ; Putting too many features in a plugin defeats the purpose, as then it is judged cluttered with options that nobody really uses.

                            For Msphysics, I used "Convexify" to divide the object shown in the figure into convex pieces, but I did not create the division process. What would be the reason?

                              I tried, and it's probably too much for the algorithm.
                              And on a portion of it, the convexification won't give you something 'nice as expected', because the the triangulation makes most individual edges concave, with relatively large angles.

                              I guess you have to find another way to generate the shape directly into small bits.

                                  Hi Mac users. A litlle survey.
                                  Lately I'm having a small annoyance with this extension.
                                  If I open the pane for the tools (see image) once in a session, then SU cannot quit normally. Beachball.
                                  I removed all the other extension leaving only it and the Lib. Still bug.
                                  Anyone else ?
                                  update: Just did it with Curvizard.

                                        I have made some tests and found that this issue occur when Profile builder 2 and SubD is enabled, but I installed SketchUp 2017, Profile Builder 2 and SubD on another machine and Thrupaint worked fine!

                                          Hi, I found a minor issue with Thrupaint on OS X 10.11.6 & SU2017, when you make click to enter in Visual edition, the gizmo and the options window disappear immediately but "right click ->Contextual menu->Enter in Visual edition" or "Enter" work fine, for this reason for me is a minor issue.
