[Plugin][$] FredoScale - v3.6a - 01 Apr 24

[timbcarter]

Just bought Fredo Scale because I had a paneled design for a stair balustrade and I needed to
skew it for the grade and then had to give it a radius on the upper section. Skewing worked well
but the free bending doesn't seem to handle any ornamentation in the panel. It works on single plane
flat panels but when there is a design ( 2D same as plane ) it pulls off part of the design while bending
and then fails to complete the bend. I actually got it do do it once but all other attempts failed. I tried
as a component and exploded and selected, still no luck. It also doesn't seem to work as shown in a
tutorial I saw. Also the Box Plane shearing after using it I tried to make copies of the skewed panel
and when I did it suddenly reverted back to the original shape. It did that several times and I finally got a
copy that didn't revert. So things seeming pretty buggy to me at this point. Another comment about the
bend, It would help if you could actuate a bend using a precise "bulge" distance like SU uses for arches.
It's more usable for architectural purposes.

I do love what it was trying to do

Great plugin, thanks.

When box stretching is it possible to input a measurement if you know the value rather than trying to stretch to the exact value?

You can show the dimension dialog by pressing TAB.

Hi guys and girls is it possible to change the dimensions from Pixels to mm in the Fredoscale extensions??

I am trying to drag a cabinet from 900mm wide to 955mm the ideal way to do this I would just type in 55mm and it would move it the extra 55mm but this is in pixels and isn't as easy.

Show us a screenshot of what you are seeing. Sizing any geometry in pixels doesn't make any sense in SketchUp. Which tool are you using to change the dimensions of the cabinet? When I use Box Scaling I can just enter the desired final dimension.

Share the .skp file so we can see what you are working with.

Which version of SketchUp Pro are you using?

Hello dear Fredo. Can I ask you to make a small edit to your plugin? Could we have more than 2 (3,4,5...N) scale planes in the plugin?

Hello Fredo.

I don't know if it happens to anyone else.

I have an issue with the box scaling. I scale some geometry by a factor of 0 to make it flat - although it does the job of flattening, suddenly I can't select my geometry by cursor anymore, just by ctrl+A. I see the geometry where it should be, but for some reason I can't select it.

Is this a known problem? Is there a fix for that? I checked the version and I have the latest one (3.5a).

Thanks a lot in advance.

This is not really supported. By the way, you may get the issue with the native scaling.

Hello, I installed the latest plugin but it does not appear in the menu list

@rutpin
After you downloaded the RBZ did you install it from the Extension Manager dialog ?
Or are you using the SketchUcation Tools' ExtensionStore³ to auto-install it without an RBZ ?
Do you have the latest LibFredo6 installed as well ?
Do you also have the SketchUcation Tools installed [needed for any licensing] ?
Have you restarted SketchUp after the installations to sync everything ??

[rutpin]

TIG Yes

Hello, all the Fredo extensions work correctly for me but when I want to use FredoScale it tells me that the license has expired. Can someone give me a hand with this?
