          may I request an additional feature?

          adding rounded corners to a shape?

            espcially on shape volumes that are closed.

            So it some times picks the wrong distance/direction between the two points? A workaround would be to break the volume somehow?

              Somehow, it works much better when the surface is open.
              But I know how to fix the problem. No easy, but I need some time, as I have to revisit the whole algorithm.

                Rightclick menues issue..
                After having installed Fredo6 Tools on surface + FredoScale IΒ΄m having the darnest stupid problem:
                Most contextual menues are greyed out, like Intersect with model, Flip along Groups Red, and so on..
                I can create shortcuts to these commands and they work as expected, but I rely heavily on shortcuts in my work and list of shortcuts is getting more and more crowded. Have I done something wrong here and this is normal behavior? I have been searching the forum but so far havent found a description af this "problem".
                I have most definetely missed out on something here and the fault is obviously mine (as it usually is) but I really would appreciate an input to help me solve this matter.

                Vista 64- Sketchup Pro 7.1.6860
                Plugins: Fredo6 ToolsOnSurface v1.5f LIBFREDO6_Dir_34 (109 mS seems OK?
                Total time to load plugin = 187 mS) FredoScale v2.0g (Total time to load plugin =124 mS)

                    I have heard that this problem is related to SU itself, though it may be 'helped' by some plugins.
                    I got it occasionally, even not using any plugins.

                        A minor issue and not sure if this is Mac related.

                        I can only get the default icons to show.
                        If I go into Default Parameters and choose IMAGES_DanielS then save changes, it does nothing. I can open the default parameters again and the box is un-ticked.
                        I have the latest version installed.

                              Just replace the default icons with the ones you wish (in the plugins directory). Thats actually the way I did it.

                              I’m also having another issue. IDK if this has been discussed before or not, but after I use this tool I sometimes loose right click options such as; smooth, make group/component, reverse faces, etc.

                                The issue of loosing some right-click context-menu items [i.e. they get "greyed-out"] is a known bug with more recent versions of SketchUp - Google are being pressed to fix it...
                                Its cause is not wholly established, although having lots of plugins that make context-menu items and repeated clicking on objects seem to both trigger it - separately or together !
                                All of a context-menu's items still appear correctly under the last item in the main Edit Menu - so you can access them this way if the worst happens...
                                The only 'fix' is to save and restart SUp - then you should get back the context-menu, albeit momentarily.
                                Don't load plugins you aren't ever going to use - they increase the load and might just be the 'last-straw...' - move them out of the Plugins folder or rename them from .rb to .txt - that way you can always load them during a session by typing in the Ruby Console load"the_script_name.txt" ...

                                      i have a feature suggestion for this already awsome plugin. to be able to make copies on surface of the shape you've drawn would put this thing over the edge! 😍 i thought of this while useing your tool to try and figure out how to do this:

                                      http://forums.sketchucation.com/download/file.php?id=47188&t=1

                                      it would be awsome if you could draw the oval shape then just copy (drag) it around on the surface! what do you think Fredo? πŸ˜„

                                        I am not sure this covers all your cases, but you can drwa an ellipse on the surface, and then just double clickelsewhere on the surface (or on another one) to create the same ellipse. Double click works as a repeater for any shape, as well as offset and line.

                                        Fredo
