      Deleting the lines2cyl ruby did sort out the problem.

        Hi all,
        Sorry for the inconvenience of the "not showing plugin" problem. My fault. You must delete old "line2cyl.rb" of your plugins folder OR I must correct the name of the plugin in the code (I forgot to change it). If line2cyl is loaded first, SU doesn't create another menu item in the tools menu for the new version.

        would be possible to modify so we could extrude along square shapes as well?

        Use a precision of 4 and you'll get square section prisms.(RTFM)

        please restore this function in "projection_extension.rb

        Does this make sense ? This function has nothing to do with projection IMHO...

        @unknownuser said:

        I was wondering if there is way to clean up intersection...

        The script can't do it (I mean, quite difficult to code). A workaround is to draw as much curves as you can, and select "Yes" in the "follow-me on curves" option. But it cannot clean intersections on T or Y or X branching edges.
        Maybe next version will do it ?

            Thanks Didier.

            Could this be adapted to use a semi-circle with thickness? I am thinking of use for ridge tiles on a roof.

                      I did not have a chance to look at this until now on my work machine. I had line2cyl.rb here as well. I installed Lines to tubes and got the same results... not showing up. So I then tried as you suggested Pilou, deleting line2cyl.rb and now it is showing up.

                        i think there should also be an option to make not round tubes but square hexagonal triangular ones.

                            I think if you downloaded the plugin and checked the manual you'd see that it already does what you want.

                                      Great plugin. Is there a way to close the gaps in sharp corners just like in "Pipe Along Path"?

                                        Great plugin, I was trying to create a window and realized that using precision 4, the corners were at 45 degrees, can I control the orientation of the angles?
                                        Thanks!
