Tikva,

I had a look at the model and now understand what happens.

The offset border (in green) on the large face must cross an edge which is contiguous to the main edge (in red) at its extremity in order to be prolonged.

This is the case if the offset is small enough:

RdC - Edge termination 1.jpg
However, if the offset is larger, then there is NO intersection of the green border with an edge which is contiguous to the red edge you want to round. In this case, RoundCorner simply defaults to terminating the offset border at the orthogonal projection of the edge to round.

RdC - Edge termination 2.jpg
I can try to do something about it, but anyway, it will create problems on the shape which have no easy solution.

You may want to redraw the shaping so that you arrange the first edge on the curved part is longer than the offset.

As an alternative, you can try to use Subdivide and Smooth, which operates on a different approach and is less sensitive to the geometry of edge and faces.

Did you download LibFredo6 and follow the instructions which are in the main post (in particular about the unzip operation)?

Fredo

Hi there. I've had no problem installing you other great plugins. However I can't get the round corners to work. The icon shows up in the menus but when I try to click on a surface, nothing happens. I've followed your instructions in installing but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Rich O Brien

You have the current LibFredo installed?

You unzipped the correct files/folders into the plugins directory?

Neocene

yes I have. All the other plug ins work fine with no problems.
Here are the errors that are showing up in the ruby script

Neocene,

Could you install the version 2.2c.
Normally it does not log traces to file.
Apparently, you have some access restriction for creating files by program in your Program directory.

Fredo

Neocene

I have downloaded that version before and get the same problem. How can I change the access for the program?

In file RoundCorner_Algo.rb, can you check that on line 2190, you have
@@mode_on = false

Fredo

chronikle

Please explain to me why did I just waste 2minutes registering just to find out that I don't have the necessary permissions to download even as a registered user.

Gaieus

You should be able to download it with no issues. Please, make sure you have cookies properly enabled and if you are using an url like http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf, please, change to http://forums.sketchucation.com

When we are at it; are you sure you have SketchUp version 1? As such, you could not use plugins anyway (they were introduced at version 4). If you have anything later, please, correct your profile here.

chronikle

I am using version 8, I was in a hurry to get the plugin since I was on a deadline and needed a quick way to achieve rounded corners. In regards to the cookies and url, those are not the cause of my problem both are enabled and displaying normally. Any other ideas, can a moderator please pm me the link, I'd still like to use the plugin for future projects.

See your email. But then come back and let's fix this issue as it should be working fine.

Gaieus

Sorry, LibFredo contains an exe file and the email is not sent. See your PM then.

Hi Fredo,

I'm also having trouble with the round corner tool making the program run really slow. Seems to be related to the palette...once this is minimized it works fine, but its is such a pain trying to enter dimensions when the program becomes so clunky with the palette open.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, can't do without this tool.

Can you confirm your run SU on Windows? (i.e. not on Mac)

Also, when you shrink the palette, do you have fluid performance, or just an improvement?

Fredo

PS: when the palette is shrinked, you access the parameter settings by typing TAB
