Frank, it has been posted all over Sketchucation that copying and pasting plugins from an older installation is not advised.

THANX again

Just do not understand, do I need to pay for this plugin to work? After following the instructions I cannot find the toolbar? What a waste!!!

Waste? this is a great and must have plugin and many people use it successfully.

Correct.

Maybe you wil be more lucky with this!
Now there is a sort of integration of it inside Join PusPushPull Interactive!

It is free to download, install and use [but of course you are free to donate to authors]...
If you have installed the Plugin properly [and how did you do that?]... then you might need to restart SketchUp and activate the it under Preferences > Extensions... and then activate its Toolbar...Also having read the Plugin's installation instructions... you will be aware that you also need to have 'LibFredo' downloaded and installed to make this work [that's free too
]

Thank u so much,,,it's amazing

took me a few minutes to get it working, had to run Sketchup as administrator..

Why? Where and how did you install the plugin?

Whatever works, I guess, but you didn't really answer the question.
You shouldn't have to run SketchUp 2014 as administrator to get plugins to work unless you aren't installing them in the correct location. -

Hi Fredo, folks, thanks for this very useful plugin.
I am asking from a rendering perspective. And woodworking, where straight rectangular edges are very common.
- would RC in a future version work on multiple groups selection? For a furniture piece with many parts, that would be a real time-saver.
- would RC in a future version allow for native undo-ing (not SU's undo) Maybe even with some form of Ghost integration.
-
Has anyone else had trouble with edges of planes that have had RoundCorner applied? I have a model that I unfortunately need to temporarily undo the rounded corner in order to make other modifications to the plane. I thought it would be as easy at re-drawing the corner and using Push/Pull to apply that across the whole edge, but Sketchup refuses to redraw the corner correctly.
Take the following images, for example. Here I attempt to use the rectangle tool to create a nice new corner. However, as soon as I click to create the rectangle, the lines I need are distorted. The same occurs if I create guides and use simple lines. It appears to be impossible to redraw the corner!
Any ideas on what I can do?

I've seen this sort of thing before but it has nothing specifically to do with this plugin. The same sort of thing might happen if you use a simple arc to do the roundover. This must be a pretty tiny radius corner and it appears you are running up against SketchUp's tolerance settings. One option would be to scale the geometry up by a factor of 10 or 100 and proceed with what you're trying to do. The other would be to delete the curves at the end of the roundover and draw in the lines to complete the corner.

Thank you. I had not considered that. I suppose I should have posted this elsewhere, then. It is a small part. Those planes are 1mm thick, and the corner has a radius of 0.25mm. I'll try scaling it up and back as suggested. Thanks again!

Pretty interesting, but for all the effort to create a login here, download the library, the plugin and install manually I find that I am getting this kind of thing over and over
Not a single rounded corner. It probably needs some auto-detection of the commonly desired parameters. My concern is that when the shortcut is more work than learning to do it myself then it is not worthwhile.
I'll be uninstalling now.

It works fine if you use it correctly. Unfortunately there's no plugin to read your mind to know what radius you want for the roundovers. You have to enter them manually in the box provided. A few moments actually learning how to use the tool would go a long way. Too bad you can't be bothered to learn how to use it.
-
Sorry n8, lots of people are using it just fine. For the sake of receiving something worth hundreds of hours (= a free useful plugin), at least don't be an *&#%hole. A thankyou must be more appropiate. And some apologies, btw.

Amazing plug in! Thanks so much to the creators! I've run into a snag and have spent to much time failing to figure it out myself, so I thought I'd just come here and ask for help. Could someone demonstrate how to round the corners on this model, or direct me to a tutorial that can show me how? https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model.html?id=ue5c599f2-8f9c-48e5-9951-e235b062aca7
I want to put a .25" Radius on a .75" thick piece of plywood (we have small children and need very smooth edges!) and every time I run the plug in, both the rounded corners and the pointed ends of curves come out with incongruous faces. Its very likely that others have already solved this problem, but I haven't found it anywhere. If so, by all means just post a link to the forum or video and I'll check it out. Thanks for your help, and Thank you so much for this plug in!
