        Thanks. Good tutorial video. I noticed that TutorialUp makes very didactic videos, going into some details and some usage that I did not think of myself.

        In the case of this video on Curvizard, I think what may be missing is the interactive approach of Curvizard, that is the point-and-click capability to operate transformations (as opposed to pre-selection)

          Hi,

          I've downloaded this plugin using the SCF Plugin Store (and restarted Sketchup right after) and have LibFredo6 8.1. However I keep getting a message that pops up saying that I have to install LibFredo6 v6.9 or higher to run curvizard...any thoughts on what is going on or how I can get this plugin working?

          Thanks in advance!

          Cassie

            Assuming you have download both the latest LibFredo and installed it, and also the the latest version of Curvizard...
            and you have restarted SketchUp completely...

            Then that error is indeed strange.

            You profile says: you have a MAC using SketchUp Pro - pre-v6 !
            Can you correct it and advise us on your current configuration...

            Help us to help you...

              I have indeed installed both latest versions and restarted SU completely multiple times.

              And oops! I am not sure why that was listed as such, I am using SU 2018.

                Cassie,

                I just published an update to Curvizard (v2.1a), as I realized the published version was quite old (2015).

                Can you tell me if you still get an error.

                Thanks

                Fredo

                      Hi Fredo,

                      actually ´m using your palette tools a lot. Not the Curvizard yet, but wonder if it would be possible to draw a real spatial contour.
                      The tutorial did not refer on a spatial type of editing the vertices.

                      My desire is related to an intuitive process creating contour lines of a hull, which is not yet defined , means from scratch.

                      The strategy follows many times to find a resulting spatial contour from two related planar contours.

                      Do you have an idea in terms of Plugin for this ?

                      Thank you for your work its really great .

                      Uli

                        Hi Fredo I'm getting a repeatable error when using Curvizard Convert Edges to Guides.
                        It happens with any edge, even a single straight line.
                        This is with 2018 pro all plugins up to date, Libfredo6 8.4g
                        It works correctly in 2017.
                        I've attached the error text.

                              Since there's a little hope to see this as core function, I wish we had a commercialFredoSplines with following interactivefeatures:

                              1. handles for shape editing
                              2. 3 types of control points: smooth\corner\bezier
                              3. interactive refinement (=segmentation) control
                              4. Important for arch modelling: total slope (in %%) AND (optionaly) total height input

                                        This would be different!

                                        Anyway, there are already several plugins doing that, like TIG xLine2Line.

                                          New feature "Convert to Arc/Circle":

                                          Great, thanks a lot Fredo.

                                          • Is it correct, that when using "Make curves", that now the curve is converted automatically to an arc as well?

                                          • Now I can finally convert the corner edges generated by FredoCorner (using circle rounding) back to arcs, if desired. This then allows adding radius measurements in Sketchup and Layout! 😄

                                          • Any chance that this feature is added as an option to FredoCorner for the generation of the corner edges when rounding using circles?

                                            Correct. I may introduce an option to disable this behavior however.

                                            I understand that you ask for creating curves, possibly arcs when applicable.
                                            I assume that only the rounding edges on rounded borders are to be converted to curves.
