      Fredo, two observations:
      'Close nicely' in Cubic Bezier is broken (the curve disappears, rarely the curve is kept but it exits without closing)
      Would it be possible to add some F(?) shortcut to 'Done end exit' across all sub-tools?
      Thank you
      P.S. BTW there's something in your closed curves that doesn't allow them to be used as paths for Profile Builder's assemblies. I'd have to explode or 'turn to arch' (another plugin) to overcome it. Is there possibility to do something on your end?

        I am not able to reproduce the issues you mentioned.

        Could you open the Ruby console when you play with BezierSpline.

        Fredo

              Could you send me the offset.rb file that is mentioned

              C:/Users/user/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2021/SketchUp/Plugins/offset.rb:56:in `offset'

              I don't know what it is but it may cause a conflict.

                some info:
                http://www.smustard.com/script/Offset

                Please download the updated offset.rb from there.
                After I updated the offset.rb from the link above the error message slightly changed:

                Error: #<ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (given 2, expected 1)>

                  You should definitely disregard this plugin.

                  It redefines base methods for native Sketchup objects (Face, Array, ...). So it causes conflicts with other plugins, among which mine. There is nothing I can do about it.

                  By the way, this offset.rb is a library to be used by other plugins or extensions. Which one requires offset.rb?

                      I publish a fix with version BezierSpline v2.1b.

                      But, frankly, offset.rb should be avoided, because it redefines methods in base classes of Sketchup Ruby.

                          Huge thank you Fredo!
                          I assume PB assembly problem is not at your end, is it?
                          PS I said good-buy to windowizer 4+offset, thank you for pointer.
                          PPS Some F3 for 'done and exit'- not this time?

                            I don't know if you're updating this to work with Sketchup 2021 (Running macOS Big Sur), but the only functions of this plugin I can use are "Classic Bezier Curve", "Polyline", "Catmull Spline", "F Spline", and "Courbette". From tutorials I can find, the other tools are supposed to bring up a Parameters dialogue box (or contextual menu based on what the Rubi Console says), which I can't get to appear no matter what I try.

                            A good example of this is the action in this sketchup discussion: https://forums.sketchup.com/t/divide-existing-arc-into-equal-segments/74870/2

                            I, more specifically, am trying to get an ellipse with equally sized segments as is demonstrated with your tool in this sketchup discussion: https://forums.sketchup.com/t/elliptical-array/17102/13

                            If you have any suggestions to fix this, let me know please.

                                Is there any way to turn off the "double shift" feature? Im not sure the technical term but how the curve's controls changes when pressing shift twice. Im not sure how to remove that feature since its more of a nuisance than an addon

                                  Toolbar Icons are really small on Sketchup 2022. Any plans to update it?

                                    Except if someone provides me with icons in size 128x128.

                                      re:Bezier spline

                                      is there a way to use the convert feature on more than 1 line/polyline segment at a time? I convert topo lines to equally divided lines using the bezier spline toolbar but can only run the "convert to" command on one line at a time. Can be tedious and timely. is there a batch process / command to convert multiple lines/polylines in one execution?

                                        Not with BezierSpline, but possible with FredoSpline.
