      If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

              if you squint a lot it almost looks like the great wall fo china 👍

              Anywya, it was 5 mins and made entirely using ferd06 plugins.

              p.s. i reckon theres reasonable call for having a seperate menu in SU called fred06 😄

                    Hi Fredo! Your tools are fantastic! 👍
                    I think i found a problem while I was playing with the line tool:

                    I've attcached this simple model
                    draw a plane line with your tool from the lower vertex of the segment
                    up in vertical. The result line will be connected to the upper circle
                    and not to the starting vertex.
                    The same does not happen with the costruction line.

                        I am not totally clear on what happened to you.
                        What is sure is that when the surfaces contains planes which are perpendicular, the interpretation of a path on the surface is always ambiguous.

                            very nice illustration of what you can do by combining JPP and the Tools on Surface.
                            Would you mind if I take the picture and put it in the documentation?

                            Fredo

                                Macs,

                                I understand. This is due to a problem in Sketchup when you create a curve made of edges on an existing edge (you can check this is the case when you generate in a group and then explode). I'll try to fix it.
                                By default, the script generates curves for each line drawn. If you deactivate this option (key F9), it works correctly.

                                            Hi fredo...

                                            About the offset on surface the external offset deletes the original surface... is there a way to keep the original surface like in the previous version? In the image I put in "1" the external offset, in "2" the actual result and in "3" what i´m trying to get.

                                            About the icons and cursors i tried to make them.. but i can´t do the ones with Cline. The ones i can don´t look very good... but i post them here.

                                            Daniel S
