Jeff,
Do you have a particular model where it does not work. In general, that should give the results.
By the way, you can choose the number of internediate curve via the #seg parameter (but not the spacing).

hi Fredo,
it's a lot faster for me to just explain it in a video.. i hope it makes sense

Jeff,
Well spotted!
-
Options for generating geometry is one feature of Curviloft which is not terminated. I may however add the option to keep either / or the mesh lines in a next release quickly
-
in Skinning, I purposedly removed the meshing of surfaces that are planar, precisely to avoid too many polys and faces. Unfortunately, I did not provision an option to inhibit this feature.
Thanks again. I'll try to incorporate all this in a next release
Just one remark: with your skinning approach, you don't need to divide the segment. Curviloft can do it for you via the Sampling parameter.

ha.. yeah, i knew that (as it's a great feature of curviloft in general). what i meant to do was use the manual divide as a way to show me trying to force curviloft to make the lines to no avail.
for whatever reason, i ended up doing it in a few different parts..
i should maybe try following a script next time i make a video

Hi Fredo
I just want to say thank you very much!

Dear Fredo,
First of all i want to thank you for this magnificent plugin..
but i have question, is there a way to slow down the movement of the grip, when we select a grip or a point to edit it?? i usually have this problem when i want to move it on certain axes (after im press ctrl button)Regards,
-
Great thank you for this plugin
. -

spotted this in another thread. Worth noting:

Hi Fredo,
I recently updated your spline tools set and unfortunately it stopped functioning.
I get the toolbar, I can activate the commands, but they simply don't draw.
I'm pretty sure the file's structure is OK, the FredoLib is updated.
What could be the reason?
Thank you in advance.
BTW where could I download the older version?
-
Have you tried reinstalling it? Completely removing the existing plugin first and then reinstall to be 100% sure everything is installed correctly.

Did it a couple times it didn't help.

What is your system info? Windows and SketchUp version?
Does none of the drawing functions work?
I cannot reproduce it here on my end. Everything appear to work. SU8M1 Pro, Win7.

it's win7x64 + su8 (see the printscreen).
none of drawing tools work. -
I just downgraded to v1.2. It solved
the problem -
You shouldn't have to do that, though.

Lets see what Fredo says - there's been no other reports of this issue since it was released in January. Seems that there's some local issue. Have you tried temporarily to run SU with just BezierSpline? In case there is a conflict with some other plugin?

Bingo!
I took (my curiosity conquered my natural laziness he-he) the virgin plugins folder and placed the latest spline set. It works.
but now I have dilemma: to filter hundreds plugins or comfortably stay with the mess? -
Do it 'by halves'.
Add half of the Plugins back in and retry.
If it fails you know the problem is with that half just moved back.
Remove half back into the temp folder and retry.
If it fails you know the problem is in the remaining portion left in etc etcIt it's still OK try moving over half of what's left... etc
Again if it fails you know the issue is with the 'half' just moved back and so on...You can quickly narrow it down to a small group of files so 512 > 256 > 128 > 64 > 32 > 16 > 8 > 4 > 2 > 1 => only 10 steps in the very worst case...
