[Plugin] Soften/Unsoften
-
Thanks Matt - and i even learned how to create toolbar items (by copying Jim's scripts)..
-
CadFather, can you post this Ruby again. Because, I did down it , but it may has a mistake.
Thanks -
done - look up for new download

Wow this answered my prayers!

Dear Matthieu,
I have downloaded and installed the plugin. When I open SU I find a toolbar but no Icons. Is this an oversight?
Kind regards,
Bob -
Bob, you need both the plug in and the folder called smooze (with the icons)
-
Dear CadFather,
Many thanks for that. As an aside, are you Italian? I ask because I spent a very happy year at the University of Trento.
Kind regards,
Bob -
Dear Matthieu and Cadfather,
I am a little confused about what to download. I have the icons showing, but nothing works. The last thing I downloaded and tried is the very last .zip file posted by Cadfather.
Regards,

Hi CadFather !
I updated the code, with another tool. It softens edges whose angle normal faces is below 20 degrees.
So now you've got three tools :Mildly Soft edges
Completely Soft edges
Unsoft edgesYou forgot a bit of code at the end...
if (not file_loaded?("Soften.rb"))Now the tool will be loaded just one time !
and the code is also changed following the RickW notices (I hope
)Good luck for the next icon
EDIT : Version 1.1
-
will post a working final version from Matt very soon - need to finish a couple of things first.
Bob, yes one of those...
-
Hi Matt, i have a problem with the new version: nothing happens
still works with the old one
i have updated the script with the 3 icons (changed the name for the new command icon)
-
small update for whoever likes this idea:
tweaked Matt's plugin so i get 2 icons (if you ever needed) enable in view > toolbars > soften
(i removed menus in plugins)now it is a quick step!
Thanks Matt!
-
Thanks!
-
oh my hero, my savior! this plugin is very useful for me! thanks!
-
Does anybody know of a plugin that allows me to soften multiple grouped objects? I have a lot of 3DS models that i import that need to be smoothed and cleaned up, but I have to open each group and soften them individually, which is quite painstaking. Any Suggestions?

-
very handy tool..thanks alot
-
I can't find a way to assign shortcuts for these tools. Does the needs to be updated, or it's me missing something?
-
Remember that this script is ~10 years old !
Because it only makes a toolbar there are no menu items to shortcut onto !
However, the native smooth/soften toolset is easily accessed via a shortcut, as that has context and menu items...
Why do you need this tool in preference to the built-in native one - the old code uses the very slow 'typename' entity checker, the native one also has more controls over what is changed... ?
