thank you very much, amazin update

Dear Frodo,
Many thanks for all your hard work. I have downloaded your files for a fresh install, but note that LibTraductor.rb is not there in the unzipped folder. This is not a problem for those who already have your plugin as they can use the existing file, but it might be a problem for new users unless LibTraductor.rb is a native SU file (is it?).
Does one leave the desired icons inside their folder or move them up one to the BZ_Dir folder?
Kind regards,
Bob -
You are right, thanks. I completely forgot LibTraductor.rb (which not Sketchup native, but mine). Actually, for those using my other plugins, it is present anyway, but for newcomers, it wouldbe missing.
I updated the archive in the main message of this post.
For the cions, I don't understand what you mean. Can you clarify.
Thanks
Fredo

Thanks Fredo...your efforts to help comunity is really great.

Dear Frodo,
Inside the BZ_Dir folder you have two folders: IMAGES_CADFather and IMAGES_ Standard.
Does one leave the icons inside these folders or does one move the icons of choice into the BZ-Dir folder?
Kind regards,
Bob -
Bob,
The old icons are in IMAGES_Standard, but by default you get CadFather's ones. Unfrotunately, this Plugin is still behind my others, and I don't provide an easy option to switch between icon collections.
If you have your owns, drop them into the IMAGES_CadFather folder.
The convention is _24 and _16 for large and small icons. -
Dear Fredo,
All working fine. Thanks for everything.
Regards,
Bob -
This is quality work Fredo. Thanks very much!

hats off for Fredo!

Fredo6, much appreciated! Thanks for taking the time to put all the bits and pieces together.

Thank You.

...is there a way to divide a curve by an equal number of segments or am i talking a different plug in?
-

interesting question indeed (although I believe we should just read your manual
) -

)you're right there PlotParis, i do read 'too fast' sometimes..
so i went and reread it but what i am looking for is not the precision parameter (think that's what you mean) - rather a way of dividing the spline.. perhaps like we do for a simple line (right click, divide) or by input box.when i change the precision points and then explode the curve - the split segments do not match the change.
the idea is to use the bezier curve for flightpath - the option of changing the division would give a handle on smoother frame transitions etc..
am i on a path?
-
CadFather, I have to admit, I didn't mean anything. just had the situation several times, that I was looking for some function with fredo's plugins for hours - but everything was explained in detail in his superb manuals
ah, I see, you want to use it for flightpath. I think to have an even distribution of segments is not necessary, for flightpath automatically adjusts each scene transition time to match a constant speed (at least flightpath2 does it).
I tend to reset these modified times to default (with the TimeTransitionEditor script of the Presentation bundle (14$ at smustard) so that I can influence the animation speed with differing segment distribution along the curve...but nonetheless I would appreciate a tool that creates an even distribution of segments throughout the whole curve. would come in quite handy sometimes. if you extrude the shape to have a curved wall for example. if all the segments are the same length it is far easier to use the same window component on this wall...

Thanks for this great plugin.
For me, one of the huge benefits is that it is now possible to draw much better with Sketchup. The normal Freehand draw tool in Sketchup is, quite frankly, pretty much useless. Now there's no need to use the Freehand tool, the Cubic Bezier Curve works so much better.
