[Plugin][$] RoundCorner - v3.4a - 31 Mar 24

Dave R · 13 Jul 2023, 17:54

I'm running a Windows 11 computer, running SketchUp Pro 2023, and did a fresh install of the SketchUcation plugin manager.

Did you install SkeetchUp correctly? That requires right clicking on the installer file in your Downloads folder and choosing Run as administrator. If you didn't do that, repair the installation. Close SketchUp, find the installer in your Downloads folder, right click on it, choose Run as administrator, and when prompted, choose Repair.

Hi there Dave! Thank you for your offer of help! I gave that a try with no results so then I tried completely uninstalling then reinstalling SketchUp as an administrator and the toolbar still wasn't there. I did notice that the SketchUcation add-on manager was still installed with the program, so perhaps the uninstall didn't actually remove all of the files of it in my computer. Either way, now I've got a secondary issue of V-ray's toolbars also not showing (I'll reach out to them about this issue). But yeah, I'm not sure what to think of this situation.

I may be a bit poor at English. Please understand.
With the account "byeogdu@hanmail.net", I bought the product "74-Fredo6Bundle2022".
I'm using SketchUp2023 Pro.
The following error occurred when registering the license.

Error inthe License Validation
Request to Sketchucation: ERROR_A04
Wrong Signature File - You may have changed the computer name
It is advised to erase the Signature file and revalidate
Do you want to open the folder ontainingthe Signature file?

What am I supposed to do?

Rich O Brien · 7 Aug 2023, 11:31

Open the folder, close SketchUp, delete the the signature and restart SketchUp.

A new signature file will be created and you can activate the license.

Make sure you are using Sketchucation Tools 4.3.1 and Libfredo 14.1a

Well, that's not right. I fear I bought the wrong extension.... I'm trying to do a round over on hole in a handle (OK, a fillet, for those who are persnickety) This shows the general 'before' situation:

And after hitting the magic 'go' button, I get this:

No, not quite right. Any tips and or suggestions on how to get this done?

Cheers

PS Using Sketchup 23 on Win10

Just click on where the hole is supposed to be. You'll see the corresponding face. Delete it.

Sigh. Thank you. I wasn't born an idiot, it's taken years of training to get here...

Hi. I am thinking of buying the whole package, but I have a question. I bought a corel draw plugin in this way before. I had a problem with my computer for a while and I had to deal with installing a new windows almost every day and trying to solve my problem. The plugin for corel draw asked for a new register code every time. The manufacturer of the plugin finally told me that he would not send me the code. From his side maybe he was right. I could have been lying to install this plugin on other computers, but I wasn't and I was right. Now I can't use the plugin that I bought for a lifetime fee. I don't have a problem with my computer right now. However, if such a misfortune happens to me again, I wonder what your solution is for this situation. Because I have learned by experience; I may encounter such a problem again. Do I have to contact you again every time I install windows or change the name of my computer or change one of the basic parts of my computer? Or what is your solution? What will happen?

No, if you install Sketchucation Tools 4.3.1 you can manage your devices at https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php

So if you have a OS/device/hardware change you just release the seat online.

But if you are operating a PC in such an unstable state whereby your formatting frequently, swapping parts or changing names then expect issues to pop up.

I purchased round corner "twice" but still every few months I get blocked out and get a message stating that my free trial period is up. I then have to go in and verify my purchase and or reinstall the plugin. It seems that every time I try to do this the process has changed and that every way that I try to verify my purchase is blocked or not there. How can I prevent this in the future?

Tool is very useful , i like it but purchasing is a problem, i purchased for fredo roundcorner and i got fredo scale, which is not even in purchasing menu.

Apparently you purchased licenses for both RoundCorner (today 14h13) and FredoScale (today 15h53).
Maybe the 2 license emails are in the same master email...

I sorted it out. He bought wrong license and ended up in a muddle

I've run into a bit of an error (probably on my part).

I've got two pentagons stacked on top of each other to make a makeshift pyramid and I went to round all the edges except for the bottom edges with an offset of .5" with 5 segments. For some reason, all the projected edges are equal except for the sides of the bottom half. They appear to shrink in size in that particular spot.

The edges are all connected correctly making up one shape, yet this issue is occurring. Does anyone know what might be happening?

Thank you!

Did you try setting Offset to Strict?

Well it looks like I got some better results! I gave that a try, and everything looks a fair bit more equal now.

It's not perfect however. The points between the two sides on the top and the bottom are slightly off.

But I suppose in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter that much. I still wonder what might be causing the inaccuracy though.

Thank you for the tip!

The angles between the faces are different so the lengths of the curves would be different. You can see that more easily when the angles between are more different.

I expect you would have an easier time modeling this thing if you do so with the thing at a larger size.

I'm afraid I don't fully understand which lines you are referring to that have different angles. Are you talking about the yellow lines, green lines, or blue lines?

Dave R · 18 Jan 2024, 15:12

I'm referring to the angle between the triangular faces above the "belt" and the angle between the trapezoidal faces below the belt. They are different so the arc lengths will be different. I tried to simplify the illustration but making a 3D thing instead of a 3D object.
