              hey wow awsome plugin, thanx for posting, is there any way to reverse the triangulation of the faces, i noticed that once smoothed the and as you rotate the form it gets very jaggy at the edges and you have to go in there with the flip edge tool to smooth it out... any way around this within the coding?

                We have some very gifted people here, only surpassed by their generosity. Thank you (all the ruby programmers, both free and commercial) so much for SU so much than it was.

                    When I am using the plug in I get a bug splat... don`t know why 😞

                    Could It be because I am using a 64 bit system,

                    Thanks,

                      or it conflicts with another plugin.
                      You can test this by removing your plugins one by one and constntly restarting SU after each. A little tedious if you have a lot.

                          I am having difficulties running this script. Inside the latest Far.rar I find:

                          inputbox.rb -- for the interface
                          FollowAndRotate_en.rbs -- the English version of the script
                          FollowAndRotate_cn.rbs -- the Chinese version of the script
                          far.skp -- example output

                          I extract inputbox.rb and FollowAndRorate_en.rbs in the Sketchup Plugins folder and execute sketchup.exe. Going to the Plugins menu there is nothing to be found...

                          In the Ruby console, I type "load 'FollowAndRotate_en.rbs'" and get this:

                          load "FollowAndRotate_en.rbs"
                          Error; #<SyntaxError; (eval);87;in `load'; C;/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 6/Plugins/FollowAndRotate_en.rbs;1; no .<digit> floating literal anymore; put 0 before dot
                          RBS1.0
                               ^
                          C;/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 6/Plugins/FollowAndRotate_en.rbs;1; syntax error
                          RBS1.0
                                ^
                          C;/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 6/Plugins/FollowAndRotate_en.rbs;1; Invalid char `\020' in expression>
                          (eval);87
                          

                          can you help me,...?

                                ... and there is still nothing in the "Plugins" menu.
                                How did all the others get it working ?

                                    Herodes:

                                    I think that you don´t install it well
                                    Put the three files in your plugin folder

                                    inputbox.rb
                                    FollowAndRotate_en.rbs
                                    FollowAndRotate_cn.rbs

                                    Perhaps this fix your problem.

                                      @Daniel S: Thanks it did require that the FollowAndRotate_cn.rbs is in the same folder. That solved it thanks a lot.

                                      It is rather weird that that both scripts are required.

                                          So useful, really impressive 👍 👍

                                          It could be also a good idea to display a kind of counter
                                          in order to avoid any operation during the calculation
                                          ( let's see some Didier 's Plugins like terrain reshaper )
