[Plugin][$] Tools On Surface - v2.6a - 01 Apr 24
-
awesome plugin!!! ty for it
-
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:
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?

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.

Do you have some usage in mind?
-
that way you could drag freehand shapes around.

But what happen if you have one point on the front and one point on the back?

And it's good to know that ToolsOnSurface also works without a surface. There is a trick explained in the doc to select the plane (mouse over a face and just press SHIFT, without clicking)[/list]
I tried this: hover over face and draw using the rectangle tool. Got an error in the console:
Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method

And the rectangle tool doesn't wrap around this shape for some reason.
-
Tom,
Did you press Shift when hovering over the surface?
Fred

Not in the second issue I reported.
-
Tom,
TOS has always had lot of problems on 'close' surface (i.e. 2 paths from any two points). When I have time, I'll need to seriously revisit the heuristics.
For the functions without a surface, either in the empty space or on Edges, I will soon publish a patch, as this is easier to fix.

But that is the thing, it's not a closed surface. It was a box, but I erased one edge.
-
I have tried to get the TOS plug in to work and have unzippled and extracted it several times but I keep getting an error ,message (Error Loading File ZLoader_On Surface.rb uninitialized constant LibFredo6:: Traductor) I have already unzipped the latest version of Libfredo6 into the plugins directory too - anyone know what am I doing wrong?
-
Is in in its own folder like this

New version v1.6b, 8 May 10available.
It allows to use the replication feature (by double-click) for shapes which are drawn perpendicular to edges.

It would be interesting we could draw our own shapes and to save at an own library. Thanks for the great plugins. You are de best. (not the beast )

I have loaded v1.6b. My make group or component in the contents or edit menu is grayed out. When I change the name of ZLoader__OnSurface.rb to ZLoader__OnSurface.ken, not allowing this plugin to load on start up, the contents and edit menu to make group or components is back.
Nothing the in the ZLoader__OnSurface.rb indicates it has been upgrade to May 8.
And I have update all the other files as required.

Can you check the About menu of ToolsOnSurface. It should indicate the version and date.
