Hi
I used arrow keys . But the result at best Is what you see!
Please try a file that I have uploaded.thank you ...

I have loaded your file !
Kill the "straight line" who is in several segments
Redraw a single line from origine to the curvated line
Draw a single line at the bottom of your component
Select the component and call Shape Bender
and all will work fine! -
yeeeeeeeeeeee ! it is !
The problem here was exactly : ""straight line" who is in several segments"
Thanks pilou for your help .

So a case where GIGO reared it's ugly head.

I tried the file and it worked. Albeit it worked nice once, and I couldn't repeat, so there was some issue.

hi again

There is not a problem for me anymore .
Everything was strange! -
Sorry, Nabi. GIGO is computer nerd speak for "Garbage In, Garbage Out"
In your example, the bad geometry of your curve was creating a bad bent component.

ok dave ! get it ! thank you .
I realized that with the offset tool we can test health of workline !
It is hard for me to explain . In summary I can say Everything depends on a correct offset! -
hi
i'm using the latest version downloaded from the extension warehouse (0.6.1). However, in combination with SU 2015 Pro I'm getting the following errors:
Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method
all_connected' for nil:NilClass> C:/Users/eidam/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/clf_shape_bender/clf_shape_bender_data.rb:255:in
line_picker'
C:/Users/eidam/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/clf_shape_bender/clf_shape_bender_data.rb:187:in `onLButtonUp'As witnessed on the Extension Warehouse website, there are more users with this issue. Has it been resolved since then? Or is there an alternative plugin that achieves similar results?
Thank you for any answer.

Fellows,
I'm in the process of redesigning a concrete structure for the greater good. It's called the Villager model and I intend to mass produce them in impoverished areas of the world, beginning in West Africa along the Congo River.
The structure is circular, 20 ft across from the outer walls. The base is made up of three arches which elevate it off the ground. I started with a circle made up of 30 segments. Next I broke it into thirds. I then copied the outer arc from one of the thirds. The length of the arc is 20' 11 5/16". Next I drew the shape that I plan to bend the same length as the arc ( 20' 11 5/16"). I go through the CLF Shape bender steps and the result is very close to what I need. The problem I'm having is the faces on the inner wall of the curved arch are all triangulated. I notice when I perform the CLF steps on just a rectangle, the faces on the inner walls are not triangulated. So the problem is being caused by the arch. There are 50 segments in the arch pictured. I tried drawing it with 12 segments and the triangulation on the inner curved faces was less, but still unacceptable. I need these faces to be flat and extrudable so i'll be able to draw the formwork panels that will be used to pour the structure. I've attached a picture of my original Villager model and another sketch showing the problem I'm having with the new one. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Eric

Merci Beaucoup Pilou!
I'm going to try this now. I'll let you know how it goes.

Really nice and helpful extension Would be even much nicer if it could bend the groups without exploding the sub-groups. Nevertheless, thanks for sharing it.

HELLO,
I HAVE DOWNLOADED THE SHAPE BENDER PLUGIN BUT WHEN I INSTALLED IT, IT WAS WRITTEN UNDER IT UNSIGNED AND COULDN'T FUNCTION. ANY HELP? -
Unsigned doesn't mean it doesn't work. Shape Bender works just fine unless you set the loading permission to prevent it from loading.

It works fine for me in SU2019. Have you installed the maintenance release? You should have 19.1.174. There was a problem in 19.0.

Yes. It does work in SketchUp 2019.
Most likely you haven't set up the model correctly to use it. If you share the SKP file, I'm sure we can help you make it work.
