      Thanks BTM, that's seems very promissing !

      But, I'm a bit sad, because I get the same problem than Kwistenbiebel. The beta version whas working really fine on my sketchup 6.4 Pro, but now, with the latest one, nothing happened.

      I can see the icons, adjust the settings, but when it comes to use a tool, I can't see the blue radius, and my clics does not creates any movements on my triangulated shape...

      I've check the Ruby console, and It give me this :
      C:/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 6/Plugins/btm_Sculpt_Tools/btm_Sculpt2_Bulge.rb:86
      Error: #<NoMethodError: undefined method `pick' for nil:NilClass>

      ... I guess that the !NilClass! is not something good... do anyone have any idea what's wrong there ?

        I think it involves the first @model.start_operation line of the scripts; in SU6, the second param is different from SU7.

        Try This: when it says @model.start_operation "Sculpt Bulge", false, true
        set it to: @model.start_operation "Sculpt Bulge", true
        if that doesn't work, then get rid of the , true part altogether.

          Thanks BTM - hope you have a 'smoove' holiday round the corner.. looks amazing..

          EDIT: i've just noticed it conflicts with 'soap skin' - the latter will not work properly (on PC)

            I am using it with SketchUp Pro 6 and don't seem to work. The plugin appears on Plugins Sculpt, but when i try to sue it nothing happens...Maybe I am doing something wrong...

              hi BTM,

              what does "PC friendly" means? that it won't work on mac?

                i think BTM writes his plugins on a mac - so he probably means it will not have unknown bugs on pc which he can't always foresee

                  max,

                  well thought of. otherwise, why would one working on a PC worry about producing something PC-friendly? thanks.

                    Thanks BTM for your quick reply.

                    First of all I've try the plugin on my (bugging) sketchup 7, and it works just fine.
                    Then I've try to do the changes you've recommended on each ruby script :
                    (@model.start_operation "Sculpt Bulge", true) or (@model.start_operation "Sculpt Bulge")
                    But, I always ended with an error message at the startup, about a syntaxe problem:

                    I've checked the previous version (beta) which was working on skp 6, and there was no 'false, true', just as you said... but sadly the same trick does not seems to work anymore...

                    ...I guess the other users reporting problems have encounter the same bug ...

                    I really hope there will be a way to solve it, because that's a really great script !

                      Ok, the plugin works fine with Sketchup 7 Free version, so I guess there is some issue with version 6.

                        Thanks, -BTM,
                        I will check out the latest release, mindful of the current feedback.

                          I made some changes so that it should work in version 6 now. I've already changed the file in the first post. Someone who uses 6 want to download it and see if ti working better in v6 now? It should still work just the same in version 7.

                                  This latest version seems to work well in SU6 on my machine, even though it is an older unit (processing/reaction time is slow).
                                  Question-- Is the "lagline" setting in the dialog a selection of a visual cue? If it is, I have not seen it.

                                      Wow this works very well! Great effort and great idea. Now I have to think about how I am going to use this new feature.

                                        can i make a suggestion...if its possible
                                        can you maybe look into if one press the right mouse button and drag it, that the brush size gets resized. I am not sure if this is possible, but it would be awesome if you can. Great job on what you have achieved in this. Without all these plugins, where would we ever be. Great job.

                                          Amazing plugin, really!! You guys are taking sketchup to another level!!

                                          I was just wondering, is there a tutorial of a help file maybe, because I'm not really sure what all the tools do or how exactly they work so... a help file would be really useful!!

                                          Thanks and keep up the awesome work!!
