      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!

      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

        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.

          Lib Fredo6 13.4a
          Toposhaper 2.6a

          I send a picture and a file

          Thank's !

              It works for me too.

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

                  Hi!

                  I all uninstall my extensions (just not uninstall 3dxSketchUp and the Sketchup extensions from sketchup) and reinstall this:

                  • LibFredo6, then close and reopen the file
                  • Toposhaper, then close and reopen the file
                  • Scf licence manager, then close and reopen the file


                  https://i.goopics.net/800/uhkap9.jpg

                  It is solved, but no idea why πŸ˜•

                  I think there is a conflict between Fredo 6 and an other extension but which one... THAT the question πŸ˜†

                    Hi!

                    I think I've find the extension it cause a Bug

                    CleanUp3 3.4.3

                    I install juste TT lib, I test to make a terrain, no problem
                    I installCleanUp3 3.4.3, I test to make a terrain, problem with toposhaper
                    I uninstallCleanUp 3 3.4.3, I test to make a terrain, problem with toposhaper
                    I uninstallTT lib, I test to make a terrain, problem with toposhaper
                    I uninstallToposhaper and reinstall it, I test to make a terrain and it work great.

                    --> TT lib and CleanUp3 can cause issues

                    Before install TTLib and Cleanup3


                    https://i.goopics.net/800/ia4rm8.jpg

                    After install, but before close and reload the file


                    https://i.goopics.net/800/zv75yd.jpg

                    After reopen the file and test a terrain


                    https://i.goopics.net/800/vdylah.jpg

                    This time it's ok, but 5 minutes ago it didn't work... No idea
                    And I've make the same install 😲

                    -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

                    I install Fredo6 Push Pull:

                      Could you install LibFredo6 v13.5a to see if this improves the situation.

                        Hi!

                        It seems to be the LibFredo6 because (apart from basic SketchUp extensions) I only installed Fredo6 extensions and the bug occurs.

                        However, sometimes it resolves itself and the Toposhaper toolbar appears.
                        I haven't been able to find a routine that produces the bug for sure.

                        After installing Curviloft (same message as after installing FredoTools)

                        -.-.-.-.-.-.-

                        Since installing version 13.5a, the bug no longer seems to occur but
                        there are always error messages for installations of extensions requiring a Fredo6 license.

                        After install of FredoSpline:

                              Did you restart SketchUp after installation?

                              Fredo's tools are comprehensive and some need a restart.

                              If you right click your toolbar zone is Topshaper checked?

                                Make sure you have the current version of LibFredo6 and the Sketchucation ExtensionStore tool installed. Then quit and restart SketchUp.

                                  Hello how are you.
                                  Is there a way to complete the mesh?
                                  It is that sometimes it has happened to me that it does not fully reach the edges.

                                  In this example, the top corner doesn't quite reach the edge.

                                      Would you have the model so that I can have a look.

                                        Hi, thanks for your response.
                                        Here I attach the file.
                                        It's part of a building outline, so it won't have curves, but it's a green area.

                                            Hi,

                                            I am looking at generating complex surfaces from 3d contours, which have a height difference of 0.3m. I notice on videos that the grid size seems to have a max, what is the max for the grid size to be? and will it give me the granularity to show contours 0.3m apart, across a model which could be 1km wide.

                                            Thanks
