[Plugin] BezierSpline - v2.2a - 22 Apr 21

fredo6

I placed Quickcard BezierSpline - English - v1.2.pdf and Tutorial BezierSpline - English - v1.2.pdf in C:\Users<username>\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2017\SketchUp\Plugins, as you said, but still nothing happens when I click on Draw > BezierSpline curves > Documentation... .

Sorry, you have to put it in the bezierspline subfolder in the Sketchup Plugin directory. I forgot that bezierSpline is not based on LibFredo6

BTW, your link to Scott Onstott's tutorial leads to a non-existent page.

Thanks for signaling. not surprising for a site which was around more than 10 years ago. I just removed the link.

Thanks, that did the trick.

Dear Fredo,
Hello, I kindly reach you to suggest some feature for the future update of BezierSpline.

As you know there is a feature in Rhino software which you can change the point easily in 2D and 3D and it is Gumball. BezierSpline in the current version, you can change the point in the 2D position very quickly but when I wonder to change the point in 3D axes, I have some problem(Of course when I want to do it, I definitely push up arrow on my keyboard and also be in Front view). Therefore, I really wonder to ask you, would you add Gumball feature for next Update?

Gumball

 Note: This type of Gumball already exists in the Vertex Tool of @thomthom which can help properly but I thought if this feature will be developed by you in this awesome plugin then it will be more integration.

The next issue is when I draw a curve in 2D, it is so hard to close automatically the curve and I have to zoom in to close it or use the plugin options(close loop nicely or closed loop with the line) which almost is not so accurate or my desirable shape. would you solve this problem?
Have the best wishes to you as one of the most prominent and most successful developers.

Sincerely
Hamidreza

Closure of Spline will come, but probably in another plugin.

Dear Fredo,
Thank you for all of your efforts. I am looking forward to the result of this plugin which seems to be very functional. Furthermore, concerning to the first request, would you add Gumball feature in order to change the point easily in 2D and 3D for next Update or another plugin. Thanks in advance.

Yours Sincerely,
Hamidreza

Hello Fredo6, is the bezier spline plugin not ready for SU19? Because I can install it, but when I try to use Polyline Arc corners, it doesn't show the pop-up window for the input.

Can you open the Ruby console before you launch Polyline Arc Corner and check if there are errors.

Thanks

Fredo,

I am working together with Robbie, this is the error code we get in the Ruby Console

Fredo,

any idea how we can fix this ?

Fredo has yet to reply, but the error message clearly points to line #67 in one of the loading files [ ../Plugins/bezierspline/BZ__Arc.rb], where it can't find the defined code for ' Traductor'.
When it's trying to run:
Traductor::DialogBox.new TTH_Title
This is a shared 'translation' module - it is an Extension created by LibFredo - which is an Extension set up by a separate installation.
So ensure that you also have its RBZ downloaded, installed and its Extension enabled in the Extensions Manager...
It's available from the PluginStore...
https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=LibFredo6
Restart SketchUp after it is installed/enabled to ensure that everything gets properly synced...

@Cenosha

Normally, this should not happen with the latest version BezierSpline 2.1a.

Otherwise, just install LibFredo6, latest version, and this should work fine.

Fredo

Cenosha

Guys,

With the LibFredo6 installed the problem is gone!

Thanks!

1st and only post.
What an absolute ABORTION trying to get Bezierspline loaded into Sketchup 2014.

Still haven't managed. It says it's loaded in Sketchucation's plugin manager, but it's not showing up in Prefs/Extensions, nor is it showing up in the program.

What a mess. How hard can it be? Install > use.

TIG

SketchUp version 2014 is old.
Support from SketchUp only extends back to v2017.
Some Extensions' authors allow backward compatible to v8, and reading this tool's guide it should be OK...

An oddity in your error message suggests that it's been NOT installed properly.

Usually the installation path is...
C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2014\SketchUp\Plugins
So how did you install this toolset exactly ?

How is it that SketchUp is trying to load it from here ?
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\SketchUp\SketchUp 2014\SketchUp\Plugins

What is your current Windows OS ?
Please fill in your Profile properly...
It might well be incompatible ?

Many users have this tool installed successfully in many SketchUp versions.

Starting off "on an aggressive preemptive attack" might work in wing chung, but when your are asking for advice or help, then a more conciliatory tone often attracts a more sympathetic and helpful response...

fredo6

This is related with the non-ascii deficiencies of old Sketchup versions in some Windows configurations, and there is nothing that can be done (except to migrate to newer versions).

Hi,
Just downloaded LibFredo6 plugin for SketchUp Make V2017. The installation is not yet complete as under Preferences there is no "Extensions" listed. Not sure where else to find it!
Thanks.

LibFredo6 appears in the Window menu and Bezier Spline Curves appears in the Draw menu. Did you look there?

Polyline segmentor is not working in sketchup 2020?

It worked for me just now in 2020.
