      Hi everyone

      Please help!! I am new to the forum, and need some assistance.
      I downloaded the 3skeng Pipe: 1.0.004
      plugin, it worked brilliantly and but then suddenly the round pipes turned into octagons.

      Cheers Andre

        Hi Andre,

        I don't know the plugin but what I guess is that it creates a follow me operation and in this case with a circle of 8 segments (note that circles in SketchUp are all segmented).

        Anyway, a certain "feature" of the Follow me tool in SU is that it explodes curves (and circles) so what I guess, this is what happened here.

        You can select all of the piping > Right click > Smooth/Soften edges and push the slider in the dialog popping up to the right until your tubes become smooth again.

        If this is not the problem,post a file or something so that we can have a look.

        Gai...

          Could you fix the problem? You can define the number of segments the first time you use the Pipe tool.

          The new release on http://www.3skeng.com has a settings menue with the possiblility to define the number of segments.

          Regards, Sebastian
