      I'm just trying to understand what the intent of the original point was? Why would a developer not want to release a plugin for both the free and Pro versions of SU? I, really don't understand why this would be a good thing. Perhaps I'm just a bit dim and not paying attention-- wouldn't be the first time ๐Ÿ˜‰

        If you really want to make it interesting, make it available for SU Pro, ONLY. That would separate it for those of us who use SU Free for dabbling and such. Would I buy it? not for my toying around, that's the difference. If it were free, I would try it out. If drawing and design was my primary profession, I would have the Pro version and gladly pay the price for this script, if I needed it. I've watched the video, read the feedback, and I think its a great script.

        Excellent work, my hat's off to you for your resilience in making this possible, kudos to you Whaat.

          I agree with both Philip and Ray. And as I said, I was not being insensitive with my comments. If this were a script I needed for a job or specific purpose, I would not be hesitate purchasing it for either version. But, at this moment it not an essential for me to have and by no means am I trying to slight Whaat in getting a return on his investment either. I admire anyone who sees a need and can fill it, either for himself or someone else. By the way, I don't know that I will ever be in the position to afford or need the Pro version, so for now the free version does just great for what I use it for.

            Chip,
            The intent of my original point was this: Doing what I do with SU, I probably wouldn't buy this script unless I had a specific purpose or need for it. The price is insignificant to me from that standpoint. If it were free, I might try it, see what I could do with it. It might be something I would use often, but then again, it might not be.

            Secondly: If I were in a profession (or not) that required more than the free version, and I needed it, I would purchase it, regardless of the price and recoup my investment along the way.

            Thirdly: I have no idea if a script could be written specifically for one version or not, but I would think that it could be. There again, I have been wrong before.

            and lastly: I looked up the meaning of facetious. You were absolutely correct in your definition. My usage of the word was incorrect, and to that, I say "Thank You" for calling me on it.

            My apologies to all I may have offended.

              I don't know if you could do this or not but IF you did do a try-out version of the plug-in you could put just 1 alliteration. That would restrict it and ppl will want to have it smoother thus, buying the full version

                No offense taken whatsoever. I was only attempting to understand your original meaning. You now have explained it well. Thank-you.

                  What are the chances that Google would buy this development and either include it with an update of SU6 or include it in SU7?

                      Possibilities like this are the way to make sketchup all-purpose modeling tool. ๐Ÿ˜„

                      This is exactly what is missing currently in sketchup.

                              Just making some last minute improvements to the knife tool. It now works perfectly on orthograpic views and will properly snap to an axis for perfect vertical or horizontal cuts (unlike the current version of my Zorro plugin). Why should you care? Well, for one, now you'll be able to make a rounded cube in about 10 seconds!

                                    Suggestion for a later version:
                                    chamfer/bevel edges with the same method the 'crease edges' works now.(select the edges that need beveling..)
                                    Just an idea.

                                      Dear whaat, have you thought about selling the code with unscrambled source as an alternative, or at least providing an API for access from within other scripts? Because kwistens' idea could be a mashup of OffsetOnSurface+creaseLikeBevelSelect+subdivide&smooth = bevelEdgeOnClick

                                        Well exagerated or not, it is impressive ๐Ÿ˜„
                                        I guess it takes the time of drawing in the parallel edges.

                                        I think Smustards site will take a big hit when this little gem is released.
