Tools on Surface is enabled. But the plug-in still doesn't appear. I really don't know what to do. These fredo6 plug-ins always give me fits.
-
Do you have the current LibFredo file in place, or does that matter here?

Yes. Current LibFredo file is in place. I even downloaded LibFredo Dir_34, even though I have Dir_35 installed. Arrgh!
-
Finally got it! The ZLoader_Onsurface.rb file needed to be pulled from the TOS folder.
Thanks for all your help.

David,
Your unzip operation does not work properly and that's why you have problems.
For Tools on Surface, you should have only 4 elements in the Plugins directory:
- folder LIBFREDO6_Dir_35
- file LibFredo6.rb
- folder TOS_Dir_16 (and not Tools on Surface....)
- File ZLoader__ToolsOnSurface.rb
I suggest you remove all other files.

I'm having trouble with the arc tool, the arc has some kinks in it, please see attached picture and SU file. Am I doing something wrong?
-
I don't think it is you. I get it, too. Yours is selected. The ones above it show the problem to varying degrees. The one below it doesn't seem to have a problem, though. strange.
-
Yeah, it seems the problem gets worse the farther around the surface you go...I just wonder if there is a setting that I am missing or a workaround
-
Ah, fredo explains the problem in the documentation...it happens when the arc is so shallow that the centerpoint is off the surface (see attachment)
If anyone knows a workaround, I'd love to hear it
-
such an useful script, thanks for your post
-
Possible bug? TOS acts strange when I try do traw over group. It works fine on raw geometry, but on group I have strange projections. See the attachments.
-
I didn't think it was supposed to draw on groups or components.
As a work around, though, you could open the group or component and draw your lines. Then select them and use Edit>Cut. Close the group and use Edit>Paste in Place.

Quite!
The clue is in its name - it's NOT called Tools_on_Group or Tools_on_Instance,
So just draw ON a 'Surface' not ON other things...........
-
My version doesn't draw on Groups/Components?
-
Well, it looks I just used a plugin in an inappropriate way. Do I still benefit of warranty ?
I promise I won't do it again!

Tool Line on surface
Does this extra line necessary when I want close the circumference?
(so I must erase it after the close)
