Thanks

I (also) have the problem that only half the toolbar is displayed. The same within the top menu.

It was working fine the first few days after adding the plugin bundle. But today it was like this. I tried disable/enable, uninstall/install (with starting SketchUp in between), updated to the lastest version 3b. Same problem in SketchUp 6 and 7.

I really need the Cubic Curve tool for tracing a complicated bent line for work with a tight deadline. Anybody knows what to do?

Great update, thanks FREDO6

Hi folks, I'm new here and am getting boggled by the depth of the software and the community. I have been familiarizing myself with the BezierSpline plug in. I was very happy to find it as I've used Illustrator for years in my design work. What I need help with is that I am unable to put a face on the bezier forms I am drawing. I can select the line but there is no face. Can someone tell me how to do it? I have been trying for a few hours and I am flummoxed. Thanks, Ray

A curve will 'face' if all of its vertices are coplanar and it is looped [or at least connected to other edges so there are on open ends].
Draw over one of its edges and it should face.
If not try drawing a diagonal line across where the face should be - this can force a face - you should be able to erase the temporary line afterwards and the face should stay behind.
If not there are 'face-making' scripts - search for 'makefaces'....

In the latest version of the file - that's download-able from the first post in this topic - the 'preserve' variable is 'commented out' with # ...
C:\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 7\Plugins\BZ_Dir_13\BZ__Segmentor.rb should have the word 'preserve' in it only twice [lines 86 and 128] - both times the line starts with a # to stop it loading...
Do you have the right version ?
If not, get it or add the two # yourself ?

DIEGO-RODRIGUEZ

TIG thanks.
now it works perfect.

Thanks TIG for your help.
For info, the preserve variable is to have an option to keep the original control points, but for whatever reason I forgot to finish the code.

Hope to improve the function :control point along z axis

maybe add "ctrl" key to control XY plan or z plan

Do you mean you can do it or you wish to do it.
Planar lock is supported in creation mode.
Axis lock is also supported in Edition mode for th moving the control points.
This is explained in the doc, using Ctrl and Arrows
In a next version, I'll try to make something more explicit and straightforward however.

here is an example:

About visual interface control nodes... Something like this is possible? (Like most 2d Vector software)

"A quadratic Bézier curve has a start and an end point (blue dots) and just one control point (red dot) while a cubic Bézier curve uses two control points."

maybe some difference:

visual interface control number of nodes

Hi Fredo6,

First of all, thank you very much for this wonderful plugin! I would like to report a small bug with the "Convert to Catmull Spline" feature. One of the segments is always left out of the conversion.

You need to explictly close the loop, by hitting the Key F9 (or via contextual menu).
