[Tutorial] Rounded Rectangle
-
thanx Coen i have done this the HARD way so often ......
-
great tut, coen. thanks.
btw, what app do you use to make your tuts?
-
...perpendicular to the starting edge
I am perplex
Is not more "at the egal distance from the external commune vertex"?
Now it is 45ยฐ(or 135ยฐ) to the starting edge so not perpendicular!
-
Thanks for a new trick Coen
with the rotation tool, pick the centre of rotation and then control the axis of rotation by holding down lmb and sliding in the required direction. Great! I've always rotated the model to get a different axis, which can be annoying. -
I agree: Great tut!!
cheers.

Yes please, A tutorial on how to make the tutorials and how to upload them to this forum would be great..
Did this ever get covered anywhere else? To have it interactive right there in the forum post is really sweet. Pointers, tips, tricks, etc. would all be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hey Coen Nice tutorial mate but can't you get the same result using fillet ...... just highlight your rectangle and click on fillet and type in your radius.............
-
I would guess the fillet ruby wasn't around when Coen made the tutorial

Yeah just looked at the date of the tutorial it's been a while, just shows how much easier SketchUp is when you throw in a
few good rubys............. -
It's not always about being able to do it easier with rubies. You should actually learn to do these things by hand, with native SU tools so that you model safely and with self confidence. Then can the rubies come to speed up your workflow...

Hey Coen,
I was reflecting myself on a way to make this simple figure (rounded rectangle) easy to do in SU, and i am fallen up on your tut
Using the Rotate Tool along the proper axis to reverse the first two corners, was what i was still missing.
Here is, using your way, a little more quick solution:
