I'll propose another phrase:
Fredo should be Google's VP of product development.

Chris Fullmer

Oh you guys are funny. Sketchup is great because @Last set out to make a 3d modeler that everyone can use. And they did a smashup job of it. Then they were genius enough to implement an API that outside developers could take advantage of to extend SU cappabilities. That was all @Last's product development and direction, not Google. So if you want a modeler that has all the bells and whistels and tickboxes and options and sliders and confusion and complex instruction books, then those exist. It was @Last's idea to limit the toolset, not Google's. But it does seem like Google has carrying that ideology forward.

Chris

And for the record, I love these tools and all the plugins. And I would not be opposed to Google having an advanced toolset that could be enabled with the Pro version. But they would have to figure out how to make it not be overwhelming, and they would have to be implenented with the simplicity of all other SU toools (Which I think Fredo has achieved 100%)

Thanks Fredo!

Fredo i see you've made line cleanup automatic, and to keep the lines is something you would turn on and off, could you make it the other way around, as those extra lines are necessary for texturing, also if u make a special bend and realize u didnt want the extra lines u can clean it with a number external rubies already written, but if u make that special bend without lines and realize u did want line there's no way to add those lines by ruby.

fredo6

You have the option to do or not the clean up by calling the Slicing parameter dialog box (pressing TAB or contextual menu), but the choice must be made before, I am afraid.

The only thing I'll do is also to add the slicing parameters in the Default settings, so that your default choice are persistent across sessions.

Fredo

PS: by the way, your case of texturing is, as I remember, why I did not do it in the first place (and then forgot to offer it as an option).

I have a Mac running OS X 10.4. I can download FreeScale but can't install it. I seem to be missing a plug in folder. What am I doing wrong? What do I need to do to get FreeScale to run on a Mac?
Thanks.

David, have you installed other plugins?

If you want, call me. I'll walk you through it.

I thought I was so smart I just installed Freescale and LibFredo on my Mac. I got the following message on starting up SketchUp.

/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/Plugins/LIBFREDO6_Dir_31/Lib6Core_31.rb:298:in mkdir': Permission denied - /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/Plugins/DEFPARAM_DirError Loading File ZLoader__FreeScale.rb /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/Plugins/LIBFREDO6_Dir_31/Lib6Core_31.rb:298:in mkdir': Permission denied - /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 7/SketchUp/Plugins/DEFPARAM_Dir

I assume this is a problem related to permissions on my Mac but I don't see where to change that. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Edit: Problem solved. I had to give myself administrator privileges.

Finally had a second from the chaos of spring in the landscape world to pop on here and imagine my surprise to find this precious jewel, hatched by the amazing mind of Fredo6!!! Thanks so much for your generosity in giving away your most valuable time.

The bend tool is mind blowing....easier than bonzai's. Makes me think that potentially a path deformation plugin is now possible.

my god, this will be fantastic! thank you very much indeed. Cant wait to give it a bash.
cheers Jeff

Hi Fredo, here is Japanese language pack for your FreeScale plugin.
Funny thing is that I couldn't find where many of my translations are used.
I also noticed none of tooltips or most of context menu (shown in the attached pic) are not translated, at least on Mac OSX.
These are the first place where people get ideas of what the ruby is about, so I think they should be translated too, no?

Thanks for all your hard work to help SU catch the current of the world.
Without people like you, SU would have been obsolete software long time ago.
