      Post it here. Please also correct your profile. It says you are using SketchUp 2022 Free/Make but there is no such version. That information is important as it helps us help you.

        Hey, i'm new to creating terrain in Sketchup, but following instructions using Fredotools and Toposhaper went relatively well, until the second step in Toposhaper: creating the mesh from isocontours. Toposhaper generates an error and the operation is fully aborted.
        I am using Toposhaper v2.6a in Sketchup Pro 2021 in Windows 10 Pro 64bit

        Date: 06-Jul-22 09:36:34
        An error occurred in CLEANSING
        The operation is fully aborted

          I think the problem is that you are inside the group of contours, and the group has itself a layer assigned.

          In TopoShaper, you can select the group of isocontours and process it, rather than entering the group.

                Trying to use Toposhaper but none of the dialog boxes open when attempting to generate from contours. Goes through "cleansing contours" progress bar and then a large yellow square appears. Is this due to using the trial version?

                  Probably not. Might be an outdated LibFredo6 install, might be incorrect model setup. Share the .skp file so we can see what you are working with.

                    Hello Fredo Master! I have the same issue as somebody before:

                    An error occurred in CLEANSING
                    The operation is fully aborted
                    cannot hide layer that is a part of the active path

                    I'm running SU2021 on my Windows OS 11

                    Helpp!! πŸ˜ƒ

                      It looks like you selected the curves directly and they have some assigned layer.
                      Can you try by selecting the group enclosing the curves (or create this group).

                          You've got several groups nested with the loose geometry of the countours in the model. Explode the group representing the perimeter of the contours and cut the other stuff down at the bottom of the group out so the group only contains the geometry for your terrain. There's a lot of edges to deal with in the contours so be patient when you run TopoShaper. Might not hurt to simplify the contours first.

                            Hello,

                            I am now using Sketchup Pro 2021, with TopoShaper v2.6a. Following the instructions to TopoShaper::IsoContours, when I try to generate terrain as Step 4, SketchUp crashed! No matter the grid set as default 50x48, or 200x198, crashed all the same!

                            I don't know why, and could anyone tell me if there is anything wrong?

                            My file Topo.skp is here (uploaded to Microsoft OneDrive for download):
                            https://1drv.ms/u/s!AvaTfkcj2ZSTijSdm9cz1fsnQNFr?e=gUdSXs

                            Please help and many thanks!

                              Try tidying up the border to help Toposhaper create a mesh...

                              I removed your outline and some pointless small edges and the BugSplat stops.

                              I also moved your raw geometry onto the default layer rather than your major/minor layers

                                Hello Rich O Brien,

                                Many thanks for your help.
                                The Topo-sk8.skp works well with toposhaper v2.6a in SketchUp 2021 (Win10).

                                I have tried some other skp files and find that if the geometry is rectangle, no errors will occur.

                                So I guess that there might be 2 situations for toposhaper smoothly running without errors:

                                1. the geometry is better in rectangle --- at least not too much acute or obtuse angles;
                                2. Not too much tiny contour lines near the edge of the geometry.
                                  Is that true?

                                Many thanks again!

                                  Correct. You do not need too many contours, or too detailed contours, because TopoShaper is interpolating.

                                  When the terrain has an irregular contour, you may also get artefacts, because TopoShaper is based on quads.

                                    Hi !

                                    I have a problem with TopoShaper

                                    Buttons don't appear and if the terrain geometry is not at the top level, it crashes.

                                    I've had this problem before with other files.

                                        Could you open the Ruby Console before launching TopoShaper to see if there are error messages displayed.
