Face and Shape of Specific Area
-
TIG, thanks so much.
-
TIG, tried it and it doesn't scale properly. Working in sq. ft. units.
Thanks. Ben

Bum !
I'll look at it asap... -
I just checked it out... and in mΒ² and ftΒ² it works just fine for me ??
What units/precision do you have set for your Model Info > Units > Area ?
Can you attach a simple SKP that's causing you issues ?
-
Architectural Units, accuracy at 1/16".
Attached is the file. Original circle about 78sf. Larger Circle was supposed to be 100 sf.
-
Perhaps it's the way the units are entered?
-
When I try your SKP I get the wrong result too !
When I test it myself it was OK...BUT now if I test it with a circle around the face it does scale oddly.
If I explode the circle first it works OK...
So something is adrift...It's because the scaling transformation affects the face's vertices, and when it's a simple outline they get process individually, but when it's a circle they get processed repeatedly and so the scaling is then way off !
Leave it with me for a while why I invent another transformation method !!

TIG,
OK, thanks.
I get the same result if I explode the curve or polygon. Simple non-curve lines around a face work fine.

Here's v2.0
https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=TIG_scale_face
I've fixed it to cope with all face perimeters - i.e. circles etc...
Download the RBZ and install...
Please test it and report back... -
TIG, Great. No problems. Thanks so much for your work on the extension.
