[Plugin] BezierSpline - v2.2a - 22 Apr 21

Normally, when you convert to Segmentor, you should have a dialog box popping up (asking for number of segments).

Could you open the Ruby console while you invoke the convert.

Thanks

Thanks for Respond

Can you check if in your plugin directory, subfolder bezierspline, you have a file called LibTraductor.rb.

If not, can you download beizerspline v2.1a.

Also, you should delete any file LibTraductor.rb which would be in the main Plugin directory.

Thanks Now it's working.

What was the problem?

Fredo, two observations:
'Close nicely' in Cubic Bezier is broken (the curve disappears, rarely the curve is kept but it exits without closing)
Would it be possible to add some F(?) shortcut to 'Done end exit' across all sub-tools?
Thank you
P.S. BTW there's something in your closed curves that doesn't allow them to be used as paths for Profile Builder's assemblies. I'd have to explode or 'turn to arch' (another plugin) to overcome it. Is there possibility to do something on your end?

fredo6

I am not able to reproduce the issues you mentioned.

Could you open the Ruby console when you play with BezierSpline.

I could send a file if needed

fredo6

Could you send me the offset.rb file that is mentioned

C:/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2021/SketchUp/Plugins/offset.rb:56:in `offset'

I don't know what it is but it may cause a conflict.

rv1974

some info:
http://www.smustard.com/script/Offset

Please download the updated offset.rb from there.
After I updated the offset.rb from the link above the error message slightly changed:

You should definitely disregard this plugin.

It redefines base methods for native Sketchup objects (Face, Array, ...). So it causes conflicts with other plugins, among which mine. There is nothing I can do about it.

By the way, this offset.rb is a library to be used by other plugins or extensions. Which one requires offset.rb?

rv1974

at least this one:

damn.. from 2008 (sketchup 6) .. I have to put it down with heavy nostalgia.

I publish a fix with version BezierSpline v2.1b.

But, frankly, offset.rb should be avoided, because it redefines methods in base classes of Sketchup Ruby.

NEW RELEASE 2.1b - 14 Apr 21

This release prevents a conflict with offset.rb (RickW).
