[Plugin][$] RoundCorner - v3.4a - 31 Mar 24
-
Hi Fredo and all,
I am using windows 7, SketchUp Pro 2013, with RoundCorner_2.3a and LibFredo6 4.9c.I have an object that I would like certain corners to be rounded, but not all corners. My issue is that I need to rotate the object to select some of the sides on the back of the object, (while keeping my selections on the first side). When I click on the move tool, or rotate tool, all my previous selections go away.
Unfortunately, I must do all the rounding at the same time, as some areas have 3 intersecting edges, and if i do things separately, it doesn't turn out right. I hope I'm making sense.
Anyway, do you know how I can perform a rotate while keeping my initial selections? if you have any advice, please let me know.
Thanks in advance!
WillI am including my object if that's use to anyone. Note, this object is before I attempted any rounding of corners. But imagine if you want to select one corner at the front and back at the same time...
-
Will, you can preselect the edges you want to be rounded. Then get the Round Corner tool. You should be using the center mouse button for Orbit and Pan, anyway. Then you won't be dropping the tool you've been using.
Be aware that Rotate and Orbit are two very different things. Rotate moves the geometry within the model space while Orbit moves the camera around the model as if you were walking around it.

Try disabling Vray and see if that changes the behavior of RoundCorner. That has been the solution for numerous others and Vray is known to wreak havoc with other plugins.
Dave,
i had RC working on su7+vray 1.6beta.... ill give your suggestion a shot
-
I was just telling you what a number of people have found to be the cause of plugins not working. Vray has been causing problems for a lot of users with more than just the Round Corners plugin.

... earlier on another system, vray1.6+ su8+win7 gave bugsplat. Is SU7 the only stable place to run vray 1.6 for now??
well you suggested to disable vray and i accidentally uninstalled it.... however even that didnt work...
its actually depressing
-
but hey! i uninstalled vray and RC still didnt work...
rc Su13 vray 1.6 win7 issue
-
The cause of the crash between Vray 1.6 Beta and RoundCorner has been identified. So I guess there will be an update of Vray 1.6 anytime soon.
There are other reasons for problems with RoundCorner
-
Wrong installation or missing LibFredo6
-
The Plugins directory is not in full Write access mode. The Access rights are needed due to a remaining trace and the implicit savings of parameters.
In all cases, epening the Ruby console before launching RC may show the kind of problems and thus guide toward a solution.

Sweet! now i need to learn how to launch ruby control...hello google
sometimes i wish this was the matrix and I could just download all info in my head.
-
Not Ruby "Control". Try Window>Ruby CONSOLE
-
yes yes yes! fixed it!
first one wasError: #<Errno::EACCES: Permission denied - C:/Program Files (x86)/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/Fredo6Trace.txt>
C:/Program Files (x86)/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/LIBFREDO6_Dir_49/Lib6Core_49.rb:713:in
so u have to go n give permission to every file? I thought giving permission to the main plugin folder solved it all.. any way, now back to installing vray 1.6. hope it works.. if not i have to disable it in the extensions menu every time I model, right?
-
So you didn't set full permissions to .../SketchUp 2013/Plugins until now and now it works?

i did that for the SketchUp 2013 plugins folder but not the individual extension folders and files inside it..
-
When you give FULL security permissions to the Plugins folder for all who are listed then these changes should ripple down to all contained subfolders and files...
How are you setting these permissions ? -
Your Windows installation must be different. I didn't have to do that with any folders installed inside Plugins.
-
Thanks alot . Its very usefull plugins

hmmm yeah maybe stuff is always the difficult way for me ..booo
any way.. installed vray 1.6 again, as soon as i click on the green click, BUGSPLAT!
guess we just have to wait for the next release of 1.6
-
No surprises there.

How are you setting these permissions ?the usual.. right click, properties, security, admin/ users way... isnt that right?

Yes... BUT did you give FULL permissions in turn to everyone on the list ?
