      If you know of one where you just click on a discrete area of colour (black in the case of my images) and it does automatic cropping, I'd love to hear of it. That would be a decent half-way solution - not as good as the extra features of Portrait, but better than what I'm doing.

      This can be done by scripting, but unfortunately the Sketchup Ruby API to manipulate images is available only as of SU2018.

      Most likely I will propose the option in FredoPortrait to auto-crop exported images (when in PNG and transparent). This make sense, a the cropping is done currently only in one direction, not both. But, again, this will require SU2018 or higher.

        Thanks Fredo. For now I will continue as I am.

        I'm sure you, Dave and other plugin developers have significant influence with SketchUp. On behalf of the many (millions?) of us who taught ourselves on and still love to use SketchUp Make, please try to persuade the Trimble decision makers to reactivate it in a new annual subscription model with a reasonable cost. There is definitely a gap between Pro and Free for a version without some of the high-end functions of Pro but which still enables plugins & extensions to be used.

        It would make a lot of long-term users happy, be a PR coup for Trimble - and bring in more income for the likes of yourselves from a much wider user base who can use, and pay for, your latest plugins. Win, win, win!

              Dave: I think your argument that I should pay the high cost for the Pro version because I use Sketchup to make some things to sell doesn't hold water. I use a LOT of other software as part of my business too: MS Word, Excel and other aspects of MS Office, Outlook, Video making software, music recording software etc etc etc.

              I don't think I should have to pay the high price of your music on MP3's because I only listen to them while I'm on the road and not all the time (I like country too). I can find your (great) harmonica songs on another site where they are free. In fact, there are a lot of free MP3's available on regular sites so why should I pay the much higher price for yours? You would do your listeners a favor and it would be a PR win for you if you just gave them away.

              Like the developer's at sketchup, I find you to be very talented.

                              I purchased FredoStudio because i would like to copy cameras from one model to another model - but its not working.
                              I think the problem is that Vray "safe frame" is enabled and that Fredo Portrait is not compatible with vray safe frame being turned on ?
                              I tried turning off safeframe, and the result is much better - but the perspectives are not identical when you copy across. Is this a known problem ?

                                Hello,

                                I am attempting to acquire a perpetual license (3 seats) for this plugin, but can't seem to find where to input payment information to gain the license. Is there a link I'm overlooking?

                                I have the plugin extension installed along with LibFredo6 and the Extension Store plugin.

                                Please advise.

                                  Do you have plans to add a flatten (skp) generation from selected parts?

                                  That's my plan to produce FaceMe component, but not sure this is useful as I never saw a user request for that.

                                  I'm lost but I think your plugin is super cool, how do I buy it?? i tried to get the $20 perpetual license but I cant find where I put my cc info to make the purchase?? is there a link that you have or am I missing something???

                                    Hi there,

                                    In this work instruction points 2 & 3 details how to purchase the license.
                                    If you have any problems just drop me a line at support@sketchucation.com and I can help you further.

                                    Thanks
                                    Anne

                                          I understand this extension can batch export image files, such as .jpg and .png using the screenshot function. Is it possible to batch export PDFs (for vectors) as well? I have been seeking an extension to batch export PDFs either by group or selection, and this extension is the closest I've seen.

                                            FredoPortrait Screenshot does not export PDF, precisely because they are vector files, for which it makes no sense to take a portion of the viewport in pixels.

                                            FredoPortrait Studio does the export in PDF (for model and objects). Batching these export is a good idea, but requires evolutions of FredoPortrait, which I am not sure I can do quickly.
