Chris, this is incredibly useful script. What a stud you are. Thank you very much. In case anybody was wondering, this works in SU5 as well as SU6.

I have a little problem with Bevel and components...

that aside, this script is incredible!!! )

Ah yes, the old "delete the related components" trick. It's a feature.

Actually I see the same thing. It appears that the plugin doesn't appreciate components.

Still, thank you very much for this.

So the problem is that you cant bevel geometry inside a component?

Ill try to fix that next version.

Dave R

That seems to be half of what Jon was illustrating. The other is that the other instances of the component get deleted and the one that is being edited ends up exploded.

Thanks again for this plugin.

Dear Majid,

Remember, the input is in inches. Try using a fraction like 0.01 inches.

Have been following this thread for a while, great ruby!!

Is there a chance of the plug-in being converted to metric for those of us on the other side?

cheers,

Jon

May 11 update.
-Fixed hang bug if input box canceled.
-Beveling now works inside of groups and components.
-Bevel amount should now be in the set unit format (meters, cm, feet, etc)
-Somewhat better capping of holes. Still far from perfect. Sometimes it still leaves holes so there is a "Cap Holes" right click option.

This may be a dumb question but when I try to download the file I keep getting it in text format... do I just the delete the .txt from the end of it or just put it in the script folder and it knows what to do? Ohh.. and I am using Safari as my internet browser.

remus

You'll need to change the file extension to .rb for it to work. Not sure why its downloading it as a .txt though perhaps some of the more apple savy have an answer?

bubbalove

Figured it out... for some reason Safari downloads it as a txt file for some reason. Worked like a charm in IE even though I don't like using IE. Thanks Remus!

solo

I use safari on my Mac and .rb's save normally, must be a setting.

bubbalove

I looked at my preferences... everything is the way it is supposed to be. Maybe it is because I'm using Safari on Windows or something. Do they automatically save to your desktop or does it give you an option on where you want to save it?
