[Plugin] follow me rotate
-
I unzip to plugins; get FollowAndRotate_cn.rbs, FollowAndRotate_en.rbs and inputbox.rb, which I must rename as I have a larger file of that name already (I put far.skp elsewhere). No plugins result in my pull down. I rename them *.rb and still nothing. Any tips?
-
you must keep names *.rbs!
-
OK, thanks, though they did not work that way ---> It dawned on me belatedly that I needed to provide for the re-naming or not of inbox.rb: if I rename it then I guess I need to go through the code and replace the old name with the new name wherever it occurs.

What? You already have a inputbox.rb? This plugin appears to have a file called that, as well as another plugin then? Do you know what other plugin supplied the other inputbox.rb? If you PM them both to me, I'll look at them and see if I can help un-entangle this issue. It will probably take more than just changing file names inside the script.

Thanks, Chris.

Yes; yes. The three being: FollowAndRotate_cn.rbs, FollowAndRotate_en.rbs and inputbox.rb.

Both inputbox.rb open as below, but are different implementations:

Inputbox.rb Copyright 2008 jim.foltz@gmail.com
The Inputbox class makes it easy to create user input
dialogs by providing a consistent interface to UI.inputbox for
text fields and drop-down selection fields.Checking the date stamps and my downloads leads to 2 DLs on 4.4.: inputbox and model_location.rb, which may or may not require input box (it has been snipped from some search result locations).
Certainly I can try renaming the existing to something else in order to see if that will enable FAR.

The renaming (and re-starting SU, as opposed to just re-loading the scripts) worked, but behavior is erratic. (I didn't want to trouble you further, Chris, if I could make the re-naming work.)
First 4 images show a failure with a welded straight path (called a curve by SU) and a rectangular face.
Second 4 show success with a truly (apparently) curved path and a round face.
The final image shows the SU upload dialog which leads one to believe you can upload more than one attachment at a time but which then ignores the request.

This FAR script does not work for me at all ... HELP!

Please post some files or image or message error ...

Hi,
I had forgotten this plugin because it almost never worked properly. This time it has worked once, but only after I had divided the line and rewelded it.
Then came back the error message shown in Ruby box .
So for me it only works if the line has been previously divided and re-welded.

So again, the correct workflow.
- Draw a line and divide the line (If it is a curve than explode and weld)
- Weld the line
- Select Face and Line
- Start FAR
This should work for all.

Charly:
I've had trouble with this plugin along a straight line as many have posted here (on a Mac w/ 10.6). Tried your suggestions of dividing line and welding but no luck. In fact the line doesn't even "weld". Curved lines seem fine and while "fun", a straight line is also needed more often than not for many hoping to use this tool.
Thoughts/further suggestions?

It is still in developing, here is the current version.
This is amazing! Thank you so much!

I still have problems with this ... please can u help me how to fixed t

This Plugin sure appears to be problematic and doesn't seem to work no matter I've tried (based on other posts here).
I'm appreciative of its creator's efforts, but frustrated that it isn't stable or bug-free.
-
i love it thanks

I have tried that without anything happening.
Hello I have the same problem I can not run this plugin you could tell me how you solved it? thanks

Hi,
It works normally only with a face and a curve. If you want to use it with a straight line than have look at page 5 of this topic. ThereEcuadorian shows a tutorial video.
