      TIG, very nice plugin... can you improve it to add the option for another rail "edge", thus effectively transforming it into a SWEEP 2 RAILS plugin??

            Hi TIG

            May you'll better understand as me that message. I loaded the V1.3, but no results
            I reload the file.rb but get the same result.captured screen using ExtrudeEdge to edge

            Do you have the V1.2 somewhere ? ( It worked )

            MALAISE 👍

              Malaise I've PM'd you about getting the skp sent so I can test it...

              Are the selected just two groups of edges ?

                Well TIG, this is a nice script and I hope sweep-two-rails can be done (keeping my fingers crossed 😄 ). It could be a big time saver for doing landscape/topographical, asymetrical surfaces.

                    Hi All

                    I have encountered some strange behaviour of TIG' last Plugin. Have you notice that Experimental SketchyPhysic 3X may block ExtrudeEdges ?

                    Using SketchyPhysic 2 , no problem at all .... please let's share your comments

                          Wow, what a great plugin! Just downloaded it and have been playing around with it and I have had no real problems at all. Had to do some minor clean-up work but nothing unusual. Love it. 😄

                              Trivial problem 😄
                              if the groups are on the full screen result is out of the screen an no possibity to see it before to reply all the box dialog!
                              So will be cool that an automatic resize exist before process 😉
                              Sure I can zoom out but... 😉

                                  On the face of it, it looks like you aren't making a set of edges and grouping them as the 'profile', and also a set of edges and grouping them as the 'path'... Do this, then select the two groups and run the tool... The error message is telling you you haven't selected two groups...

                                  If you have other problems then please expand in your explanation...

                                      This is an astounding plugin, I've already found myself using it on lots of 'ordinary' tasks where usually I would have had to stuff around for ages with followme, copypaste, etc.
                                      Thank you very much Tig.

                                        Seems there is something wrong in the "Zoom" 😉

                                        That don't work 😮
                                        zoom out must be made before the first dialog box "Orient faces"
                                        Without that zoom don't work even at the end 😄
                                        (I have of course the 1.5)

                                          Here's v1.6 http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=166780#p166780
                                          It fixes a glitch with large mesh group results not zooming properly so that you can see them all...
                                          The way it works is that it selects the group, 'zooms selected' and then removes group from selection - fine for modest sized meshes BUT if the group is too large SUp hasn't found the selection to 'zoom to' before the selection is cleared... so I've put the 'remove from selection' part after the first dialog so it has time !

                                            Is the result you wanted when erasing coplanar edges?

                                            JSClements is a temp login until I can get JClements restored.


                                            Is this the result you wanted when deleting coplanar edges.skp
