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

jeff hammond

hey julien.

i do notice a slight delay in response with RoundCorner (though it's very slight.. nothing like you describe)

as shown in this screenshot:

screen 1.jpg

does that speed things up for you? (you can still access the RoundCorner parameters with the palette closed by pushing the tab key)

also:

i noticed in your ruby warning that you're installing plugins in your user library..
/Users/Ju/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins/ROUNDCORNER_Dir_21/RoundCorner_Algo.rb:1186: warning: Object#id will be deprecated; use Object#object_id

this used to cause a lot of problems on macs but most of the plugin writers have done something to fix it (there are still a few problem rubies out there)

google instructs to install rubies in the system library:
http://code.google.com/apis/sketchup/docs/loading.html

that's where their sample rubies etc are upon a fresh SU install (did you create the user/plugin folder on your own?)

here's a little automator app that will fix your install location:

su7 and su8 version included..

just double click the specific version(s) you have on your machine.
it simply moves all the files out of your User/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins folder ...
and into the proper location of
Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins ...then deletes the empty user plugin folder..

you can do this manually if you choose but it should be done.. i don't necessarily think it will fix your RoundCorner problems but it will prevent problems down the road..

Julien,

What I can do is to prepare a file with traces that you can run. The issue seems to be in the Palette drawing, but I don't see why it can take so long.

Jeff,
I have try to shrink the palette, but does respond for me (still same problem).

However, I change the plugins folder as mention, and try out the roundcorner plugin. I still have the problem, but it responds a little more better.

First improvement, we are on the good way -)

Thanks julien

This is really a helpful plugin, with it it is easy to create sofas! Thanks a lot to give this for free!!

hi fredo

i can see that other people had succeeded installing and using the roundcorner plugin

i've extracted the folders into the plugin file and put it by the order u mentioned
when i tried to open the sketchup i'v got errors :

Error Loading File ZLoader__RoundCorner.rb
uninitialized constant LibFredo6::Traductor

i'm a mac user and i would be more than happy to have a solution !!

fredo6

Sasa,

I think you forgot to install LibFredo6, which is a shared library used by my plugins.

Ok, so I have to wait for the next release?
I am sorry but I am not using Windows anymore -)
I was used to work with sketchup 7 and the round corner plugin without any problems.

I have download and install curviloft, it works really fine and quick.
I have retry roundcorner, still having the same problem.

thanks fredo

Then, it would be helpful if other Mac users could tell if they have similar performance issues.

Fredo

Sure thing, I'm having exactly the same problem as JujuSkp. Just got pointed towards this thread for this!

Fredo:

I use Mac OS 10.6 and SketchUp 8.

I have dropped RoundCorner%202 & LibFredo6%203 into the
plugins folder which is nested in the
Sketchup folder which is nested in the
Google SketchUp 8 folder which nested in the
Application Support folder which is nested in the
Library folder which is nested in the
Hard Drive icon

When I start up SketchUp 8 I see no new tools in the Tools drop-down menu.

Please tell me what I've done wrong.

Thank you

Cliff

cliff, those are the folders you're left with upon unzipping.. you have to open those folders to get to these files:

%(#FF0000)[ROUNDCORNER_Dir_21
ZLoader__RoundCorner.rb]

and

%(#FF0000)[LIBFREDO6_Dir_34
LibFredo6.rb]

those four items go in the plugins folder at the same path you stated in your post.

Hi, awesome plugin, a shame i cant get it to work. I placed the folders and the files under the plugins folder, as u say, there are 2 folders, the roundcorner plugin folder and the libfredo library folder. And 2 files, the roundcorner plugin file and the libfredo library file. But i cant see anything about the plugin in sketchup, neither in preferences neither in the context menu. Is this plugin working for sketchup 8.0 ???

Hi Fredo6 !

This ruby made a strong impression on me ! It's very very very useful !

I have a small idea, could you resolve it ?

Image link broken, browser stalls thus link removed (poster never came back anyway).

Many thanks !

Hi Fredo

I desperately try to install your plugin, but I must have done something wrong: In the Sketchup 7.1 pro i put in the plugin folder:
LIBFREDO6_Dir_35
ROUNDCORNER_Dir_21
LibFredo6.rb
ZLoader__RoundCorner.rb
When starting SU it prompts:

ZLoader__RoundCorner.rb
uninitialized constant Traductor::Plugin

Why could that be?

Thanks for the help

fredo6

HI,

For some reasons (may be the unzip operation), you do not have th right footprint and LibFredo6 has not been loaded.
I suggest you check again.

Hi,
I am having similar problems installing this plugin.
Has anybody been successful installing it and using on a Mac.
If there is, can someone please send a screenshot of the hireacy
of the plugins folder so, we can have a visual reference

Your help is very much appreciated

Does anyone know how the max amount of, er, bevel segments (? sorry - not a native speaker) can be upped? Currently the maximum amount is 30. I've been going through the code, but truth be told, I'm not much of a coder.

Help me out, and I'll send you gold, and curvy blondes. Really.

Look inside **RoundCorner_Commom.rb** find the line #150
MYDEFPARAM.declare_:DEFAULT_Flag_Numseg, 6, 'I:>0<****30****'
and change the 30 to something else like 72 [that's what I have mine set to]...
Then in **RoundCorner_Tool.rb** find line #346
@dlgall.field_numeric "num_seg", T6[:DLG_All_Numseg], 6, 1, ****30****
and change the 30 to match - like 72...
and line #1032 find
if numseglock || numseg <= 0 || numseg > ****30****
and change the 30 to match - like 72...

PM me about the delivery address

Stinkie

Thanks, TIG! Much obliged.

Andrew - sorry, the blondes and the gold are being shipped to TIG's as we speak. I'm sure you understand the supply's limited. I do still have a bag of musty lint.
