incredible. excellent tool, thank you very much for sharing

Getting rid of the extra material is a lot easier than trying to do this manually, thank you! I see that to clearly define the direction of the push/pull, you need to orbit your view a little bit.

Tools->SmartPP
Extrude the face and doubleclick to finish.

btw, a4chitect: why do you have to doubleclick? Why not normal click like the regular PP?

I really like this plugin. Really looking forward to see how it develops.

I tried it on some simple shape and it worked most of the time. But occasionally it doesn't - not sure why, can't tell the different between what works and what doesn't.


Error; #<ArgumentError; Points are not planar>

C;/Programfiler/Google/Google SketchUp 7/Plugins/A4_smartpushpull.rb;205;in `smartPP'

C;/Programfiler/Google/Google SketchUp 7/Plugins/A4_smartpushpull.rb;184

I've attached a sample model which caused the error. I was trying to SPP the face I highlighted orange.

thanks for all the cheers! will look into all the requests but please be patient. I'm not abandoning the development

thomthom: I'm aware of this bug - it is all due to almost no exception-catching code

Wow, thank you a4chitect.

You know, I never use the default scale tool anymore as Fredo's scale (and taper) tool is much better.
Your 'smart push pull' concept has the same potential to knock the old default Sketchup PushPull out of business.
Wonderful concept man!

I hope you will keep on working on it as this can become a life saving gem.
Thanks again.

1+ absolutely fabulous tool, a4chitect. thanks a lot.

Great tool. Just one idea maybe, when you select the face you want to extrude, you get the option of deleting the original lines to clean it up. Would be a nice addition. but still a great plugin nether the less.

I thought the same thing, TT.

Hi ar4itect I think your 'to do' list misses multiple adjasent\non adjacent faces push-pull.
It'd be special case of Fredo's JPP. BTW While ago I asked him to implement it but unfortunatly it didn't happen.
