The directory is there, but it is hidden. I was able to see it by opening Terminal. Now what should I do? (The dot does make it hidden.)
Could you enable the option "view hidden file" in your Finder.
In the Terminal, type
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES; killall FINDER
If it does not work, then it would mean that your Support folder is protected against file creation by program, and then you'll have to find how to allow it via changing some security settings.

When I did that, I got this response "No matching processes belonging to you were found."
But I can see the folder by typing the following two lines, one at a time:defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
killall Finder
What should be inside that hidden folder? It only contains a folder named DefaultParameters,
which has two files: FredoCorner.def and ROundCorNer.def (spelled just like that)Gail

So, this may be related to some security settings.
In the Ruby console, could you copy and paste the following command and press Enter
File.open(File.join(LibFredo6.appdata_dir, "LibFredo6_all_defaults.dat"), 'w') { |f| f.puts "###" }
Do you get an error?
If so, could you type (same command, but with a .txt extension)
File.open(File.join(LibFredo6.appdata_dir, "LibFredo6_all_defaults.txt"), 'w') { |f| f.puts "###" }

I deleted the hidden folder .LIBFREDO6_DATA_Dir.
and then uninstalled LibFredo6, FredoCorner and RoundCorner.
After doing that, when I re-installed LibFredo6, another file showed up below the folder DefaultParameters inside the hidden folder. It wasn't there before.Then I re-installed FredoCorner and RoundCorner, and now they are both working!!
Thank you so much for your help and time, Fredo.

OK. Strange, but glad it worked. This may be useful to know for other Mac users.

découverte de ce plugin malin, bien que son interface ne rende pas son utilisation des plus pratiques; heureusement la généreuse et trÚs détaillée documentation est là .
Par contre, impossible de savoir ce que le plugin considĂšre comme Ă©tant une arĂȘte invalide. Et si je pose la question, c'est justement parce que sur un modĂšle simple (un anneau type bague semi ouverte) aucune arĂȘte et aucune surface ne peuvent ĂȘtre sĂ©lectionnĂ©s. Bon c'est vrai que je ne suis pas super Ă l'aide avec Sketchup, mais j'ai rĂ©ussi Ă faire fonctionner ce plugin sur d'autres modĂšles.
Quelque chose m'Ă©chappe encore avec Sketchup; une fois de plus!

RoundCorner permet de filtrer les arĂȘtes selon leur propriĂ©tĂ©s (plain, soft, smooth, hidden). En general, on ne considĂšre que les arĂȘtes plain (donc non-soft, non-smooth, non-hidden).
Dans la palette de boutons, tu as un filtre qui peut ĂȘtre modifiĂ©.
Dans ton modÚle, utilise l'option pour montrer la géométrie cachée.
Fredo
PS: J'ai publié recemment le plugin FredoCorner qui est un peu plus puissant que RoundCorner.
-
Merci Fredo pour cette précision.
Je n'avais pas perçu cette partie filter des arĂȘtes; bon pas plus succĂšs quelle que soit le Edge Prop. Filter sĂ©lectionnĂ©, non seulement aucune sĂ©lection d'arĂȘte n'est possible, mais en plus Sketchup plante (du moins suis-je obligĂ© de "forcer Ă quitter")Je vais suivre ta suggestion en installant FredCorner, peut ĂȘtre aurais-je plus de succĂšs...
ah ben non, dĂ©cidĂ©ment quand ça veut pas!DĂšs que je fais appel au plugin, j'ai un message d'erreur, et il me faut cliquer sur OK une bonne vingtaine de fois pour en sortir. Une fois sortie de ce message d'erreur, mĂȘme si le contour de la piĂšce apparait en rouge (donc sĂ©lectionnĂ© je suppose), je ne parviens pas Ă arrondir le bord. Je laisse tomber, je le ferai au papier de verre, une fois la piĂšce imprimĂ©e en 3D (je mettrai sans doute moins de temps).
-
Merci Fredo pour cet Ă©claircissement.
Reste que sur le fichier que j'avais joint, quel que soit le type d'arĂȘte sĂ©lectionnĂ©, le plugin ne fonctionne pas; il ne se passe rien, aucun arrondi n'est effectuĂ©.
Quant à FredoCorner, ce n'est pas mieux, voire pire, puisque dÚs que le plugin est appelé j'ai un message d'erreur.
Bon, je laisse tomber. Pour moi c'est trop compliqué de parvenir à faire fonctionner Sketchup de maniÚre logique et fiable. Je ferai mes arrondis au papier verre, au moins là je suis certain d'y arriver.

Verifie la valeur de l'offset qui est probablement trop grand.
Ouvre RoundCorner ou FredoCorner sans aucune pre-selection
Tu peux taper une nouvelle valeur dans la VCB ou en cliquant sur le bouton. -
PremiĂšre tentative: dĂšs le lancement du plugin (roundcorner) Sketchup plante.
je relance.
Le plugin est activĂ© (roundcorner): je vois en bas Ă droite Offset: 30mm , 6sje change la valeur de 30 par 1: ne change rien, aucune arĂȘte sĂ©lectionnable.
Puis je vois en haut à gauche cette cas qui semble est désignée par VCB;
je souhaite donc changer la valeur. impossible; que je mette 10 ou 1, la boite de dialogue demandant de valider le nouveau choix ne cesse de revenir demandant la validation de cette valeur.
Bref cela ne marche toujours pas, ou bien ce qui est plus probable c'est moi qui ne sait pas utiliser cela....alors que je suis bien plus Ă l'aise avec de la toile Ă©meri.

Please excuse my inexperience with both Sketchucation and this forum. I am I think replying to a thread when in fact I want to post a new thread for RoundCorner. I can't find a 'new thread' type button so again, my apologies.
My Post Title would be: "Help with RoundCorner toolbar size in Sketchup 2016"
Problem: I have had Round Corner installed for some time and always struggled with the fact that in my installation, the toolbar (the pop-up window for settings that appears after I select either S
harpCorner or say RoundCorner - Bevel) is so small that I can not enter parameters for my roundcorner use. I am able to use the extension, but my problem is with the 'settings window' that appears when I select one of the three main options.Any help or direction on how to properly ask this question (and your patience is appreciated) would be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance

You must have a high-resolution screen.
For Sketchup 2016, you have to indicate the scale factor manually.
Go to Window > LibFredo6 Settings > Default Parameters... to display the Default Parameters of LibFredo6.
At the top of the dialog box, you should adjust the value of the field "High Resolution Screen Factor". Probably a factor 2.
Note that this adjustment is automatic for SU2017, SU2018 and SU2019.

Of course we're not selling, will leave all links to your page on the description

You have my permission. And thanks for this initiative (and thanks for asking).
Obviously, It will be difficult to review it in your native language
Fredo
PS: by the way, you may want to have a look at FredoCorner, which is a separate plugin that does the same and a lot more than RoundCorner. The only restriction is that FredoCorner is for SU2016+.

C'est vrai que je ne suis pas un champion de Sketchup, mais j'essaie d'y mettre du mien. Hélas, je vais de déboire en déception.
DerniĂšre tentative en date dâutilisation du plugin roundcorner; tout cela est dĂ©cidĂ©ment trop mystĂ©rieux pour moi.

Looks to me as if you need to greatly reduce the offset amount to something appropriate to the size of the model.

Dave is probably right I think, but before all this becomes too mysterious for you how about to share your shown model here and briefly describe your intention? so we could look what really happens ... -
Hos can I increase the size of the button palette? It is much too small to use.

It would be good you attach a picture and indicate the resolution of your hi-screen.
This is similar to this user question.In SU2018 (based on your profile), the adjustment of size is automatic.
In any case, I would recommend you check the Default Parameters of LibFredo6 to see if the parameter are set correctly.
