[Plugin] Round Edge - v1.0 (by Bezier)

driven

Hi fredo,

still trying all you great stuff,

have you heard of issues with this on the mac. it's locked up sketchup a couple of times and never worked properly even on simple stuff, still using SU followme. I've uninstalled at the moment because SU itself has started glitching and I even had to re-boot (I think it's called) for the first time in 18mths.

Freescale is working great.

actually should I have it in the BZ_DIR_12 folder with the others or out on its own????

cheers again

I am not aware of specific issues on Mac with BzRoundEdge script. Did it work at least one or do you get a bugsplat or freeze right away?

No confusion. BZ_DIR_12 folder belongs to the BezierSpline plugin, which is unrelated with RoundEdge.

As a general Rule, never unbundle files from folders. Always unzip with SelectAll to make sure the folder hierarchy is reconstructed in the Sketchup Plugin directory.

Hi,

The bug slat/freeze happens during processing, and at first I thought it was due to my not waiting before starting my next step

however, I now think it's a conflict with something else (either Podium or BezSpline)

I'll try a complete fresh instal of SU and add a couple of new folders directly in HD>Lib>AppSuport>SU>(myrubyfolder and parkedrubyfolder)

this make it easy to switch between rubies to see if I can find conflict (if it's still there)

I was also trying to apply this to model , so I'll try it at component level and just smooth the end result...

another thing is I find finding you scripts on this site, can you put up a Fredo6 [plugin]link in your signiture or somewhere?

thanks for reply

There is a known conflict with some version of Podium. I don't have the reference but it is documented somewhere in the Ruby discussion forum.

For the freeze, yes, you have to wait until it completes. There is a progress bar showing where it stands. If you click, then you'll get an apparent freeze (but if you wait, it completes).

Has the pointy corner problem been solved?
Thanx

Do you mean this?

This plugin has that ability Fredo?
Or is this something you got in the making?

This is in the making, but I hardly find time to progress.

I'll be looking forwards to this. Rounding the edges in that manner is a must to model and render a realistic product model.

Yes!
How much longer?

Gaieus

It's a great plugin even with the pointy edges but this would definitely take it to a "next level".
Just take your time, Fredo, we are not impatient

Just to know that you´re behind a new version makes me happy

I´m not impatient too.. but I just make alternative icons for the future plugin

Daniel,

Thanks very much for the icons.
If you don't mind, I will make them the primary icons, because mine were really ugly.

is there any way i can round the edge only bit like a 1/16 or even less?

Of course you can, and thanks again for working in this plugin.

A workaround is to scale the model. For example with my units you can´t round less than 0,5 cm. So if you need to round 0,4 cm you can scale up the model 10 times and round 4 cm. Then you scale down (0,1) and you have the rounded edges in 0,4 cm.
If you need less you can scale 100 times larger or even more, and scale down when done.

We also want to Chime in and agree that a professional grade tool for bullnosing and filletting is much needed.
