[Plugin][$] RoundCorner - v3.4a - 31 Mar 24

fredo6

Help! In another thread someone pointed me to this plugin to round off the joint of two pipes. I'm getting weird results, tough...

RoundCorner is not really adequate for this situation, because it would be very difficult to adjsut all edge terminations to get a perfect rounding.
I am not aware of any plugin doing these junctions, but if you do a lot of tubing work, you may want to have a look at the Pipes plugin from Skeng.

Actually no, I don't do a lot of pipes work, but is a shape that cross my way sometimes and wakes up my interest because of the complicated geometry.

What bugs me is that the kind Blajnov did manage to accomplish the task with RoundCorner, but I am not able to replicate the success.

TIG, thanks for your input, I'll try to count the segments, but at first thought it looks hard to match both sides because of different lenghts.

Did you install LibFredo6?

Yes, I did.

All is well. It's working on both systems-XP and Vista 64.
Fredo, you're plugins are great.

thanks a lot Great plugin!!

This plugin looks great, but I'm running into a problem here. I have a rather simple triangulated mesh and need to bevel the edges before running it through Subdivide and Smooth. However, the script seems to stop around 6%, yet still says computing.

Any ideas?

Post your skp file

Hmm, I attached the file, but something messed up. Here it is.

I found the bug, which explains why the scripts stops. In your case, you can however exit the tool.

Beyond that, you are in case where RoundCorner would not function very well, because of the triangulation. This is one of the limitations mentioned at the end of the documentation.

I attach here the result which is not very good for some edges, so that you can judge.

Thanks for taking a look at this for me. While I may not be able to use your script on this particular model, I can see many uses elsewhere. I appreciate the hard work that you and others have put into these scripts and for your time in answering questions. Guys like you have really turned SketchUp into something great. Thanks again!

Fredo, I echo the sentiment of all the grateful users who benefit from your talent and selfless dedication. Many thanks for this!

Hi, I install RoundCorner, but I'm unable to access it in SketchUp. When I click on Tools>FredoScale noting happens.
I also get no response when I click on Set Preference Languages.

I'm using Vista

Thanks for the help.

I made two round corner model Yesterday, today.
I want two same shape of rondcorner model but It is not working out.
Working conditions were the same as the shape ..
What's wrong?
I dont want small triangle particles at all in very right model.
You mean It happens becasue the edge is not aligned, I think I aligned it
would like to tell me why and how?

Gaieus

Hi Fine,

Can you delete those edges without losing the faces?
It's not necessarily there because you did not align your model but maybe because the newly created facets would not be co-planar otherwise.

In any case, after smoothing those surfaces, it won't be seen (but I understand that you wish to have the least geometry and cleanest possible model)

Can you check if you use the same setting for the option "Strict Offset" (this is the button with the vertical green and red bars).
