        Hy CPhillips very nice script!! Really usefull (sorry, dropped my pen)

        But in some cases I encounter some strange behaviours with this script.
        See the attached images.
        What exactly does "Cap Holes" ?
        Images 1 - 3 are self-explanatory. For img 4 i might have some simple ideas to avoid happening that: What if the script can find the smallest distance between two paralel edges from the selected geometry and don't use a greater value for bevel than is supported on that object.
        One more thing: for rounding edges the script could run twice calculating 1/3 from first bevel value, then make edges soften. I don't understand why third run gives me all the times that result with missing faces and rezidual geometry.

        I'm not criticing your work, I'm amazed and using it enthusiasticly. Just trying to help with ideeas.
        Thank again.

          Thank you for a very useful tool! I just started using it today and it works pretty well. I can't imagine why this or something like it is not built into the program yet... thank you for sharing such a time saving tool!

              Can you post the steps that make it crash?

                      Simply put the .rb file in your Sketchup plugins folder. Then you will find the bevel tool in context menu (right button click of the mouse).

                              I'm doing that in Sketchup Plugins folder in Snow Leopard, but I'm not finding anything on Right Click. Any help is appreciated.

                                Like the built in Outliner tool Bevel doesnt work with "holes" in faces. You can usually work around those problems by subdividing the face with a hole.

                                Here is an example. The mesh on the left doesn't Bevel right. But add a line to break up the hole and it works. Then you can just erase the extra edges.

                                [attachment=0:2ckr4p9x]<!-- ia0 -->bevel-holes.png<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:2ckr4p9x]

                                Sorry for bumping an old thread like this but I just installed this plugin today and was trying to get what you have shown above working but I can't for the life of me get what you have shown in your images in SU.

                                I made a box then push-pulled another box on top of that and placed in a line like you have shown. When I select all and control click (OSX) on the selected items and choose Bevel it just deselects what I have but doesn't apply any bevel to the objects.

                                Please could someone let me in on what I'm doing wrong?

                                Best wishes,

                                Mark
