I would like to ask you to share this interesting plugin. I created a lot of interesting things myself with the help of Claude. It's interesting to see what others are doing.
-
With FredoBend v1.2b, you can normally keep the quad properties by turning off:
- Slicing
- remove coplanar edge
- soften edges
Here is a video showing the process.
Here is the test file. Tell me if this is OK.
-
I also want to suggest that after using the plug-in, the components do not deform, bend in shape and retain their component properties
I don't understand what you mean.
The component / group property is kept. If you bend a component. the output is a component. Same for subcomponents.
However, all the content of the container is made unique, because bending is not a transformation but a creation of geometry. This has nothing to do with slicing.

Wow, I realize that I didn't understand correctly the proposal, so I retreat my + 20 on this.
Because you basically can't do that in Sketchup (you'd need some sort of modifier system similar to the 3dsMax one to accomplish this).
I understood that he was talking about a non-slicing behavior instead (which would be preferable). -

It's currently in the last (I hope so) alpha stage, I'll need to fix a couple of edge cases before it can go beta.

Perhaps I did not state my thought correctly, perhaps I got confused in the terms, or perhaps my translator did not translate it correctly) I want to say the following: when we use a plugin, is it possible not to deform the component so that the component does not lose its connection with its own kind? As an example in the video, I used the Copy Along Curve plugin. He arranged the components in an arc without deforming or making the components unique.
-
Plugins like Copy Along Curve just move and rotate the objects to position them along the curve. So, this is not really bending and it is another use case.
For FredoBend, it is possible to add an option where only the top container is modified, leaving the sub-container not deformed.
-
It doesn't work for me. With my sketchup 2025 full of plugins, it doesn't work. In practice, if I place the object on a line or a curve, it doesn't get curved. While if I install it on sketchup 2026 with very few plugins, it works. There are some incompatibilities, but it doesn't give me any errors. Anyway, congratulations, it's fantastic.

If there are errors in the Ruby Console you should post those to help Fredo determine the cause.
I presume you have an updated LibFredo installed.

Looks great Fredo. This is destructive one, isn't it? No way to edit afterwards

I think that's what you need. At least it would be great to experience it. Thank you.

mx_constructtools
It looks like the plugin mx_constructtools is redefining a base method (Array#sum), which is not a good practice and is dangerous for other plugins. This is causing the error.

The bent object is of course new geometry.
However, as shown in the main video:
- the original object is untouched
- If you modify this original object, you can update the bent object in one click.
- you can also edit the bent object and change the bending parameters. If the original object has been modified, the new bent object will be updated.
- there is an option to save a copy of the original object to an external file. This is for the case where you delete the original object in the model, including its definition.

Hi all,
running FredoBend v1.2b with LibFredo v15.9a on SU 2019 / Win11 and i've got an issue on the bend generation step with this error log :"Date: 27-Mar-26 09:24:41 - SU2019.3 - LibFredo6 - v15.9a
