      I just ended the french translation of the LibFredo6 15.9a messages.
      And FredoBend v1.2c too.
      How to send you the result "LibFredo6_FR.lang" + "FredoBend_FR.lang" please?

      Many thanks. I am lazy to do it.
      Just PM the .lang files to me on this forum.
      For LibFredo6, this is useful.
      For FredoBend, I did not make it translatable yet, until I finish the other features. So, the translation is uncomplete.

                      Would you have the model, because I don't understand how the error can happen. Thanks

                                    Hello!!

                                    I am a user from Greece. Thanks for this amazing plugin.
                                    Nevertheless I noticed that Circular bending deforms a little bit the object which I think is not convenient for the accuracy I don't know, is this a bad handle by me or is a small bug in the code? (I attach a screenshot trying to show what I mean).
                                    Thanks for your attention in advance!!

                                      This is a choice you have to make.

                                      There is a thread on this question in the Sketchup forum.

                                      In your case, you can play with this parameter (Offset Mode)

                                        @fredo6 Hello!!

                                        Thank you very much for the instructions. I choose Vertex-to-Vertex end everything is fine. Now I Know that I have two options to use.
                                        I saw the topic in the forum and I somehow understood the mechanism of bending, and the difficulties that appears.
                                        Thanks again!

                                          I think it's best for a bent object's geometry to follow a 'curve' and start perpendicular to the start/end segment. But if the path is a full circle the bending should start perpendicular to a mid-segment, to keep the objects 'endmost' dimensions correct: and if it's around an arc [partial circle] that's user-defined it should be treated like any other curve: but if it's a swept form around a notional partial-circular path, that should then start/end perpendicular to a half-segment - that way the bent form stays as dimensionally true as it can be.

                                          TIG
