      TIG, Thank you very, very much for your toolset. I just updated with the loft tool. All work flawlessly on my Mac. I really appreciate your skills, and efforts.

        Here's another update [3rd of the day!]
        http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=217663#p217663
        In this one the FR lingvo file has been updated by Didier Bur...
        I knew that Extrude Edges by Loft == Extruder des arรชtes par 'Loft' could have been put much better [my franglais ain't so good... !]...
        But Extruder des arรชtes par profilage entre courbes is not half as snappy ??? ๐Ÿ˜‰
        The Spanish disponiendo is quite near 'to loft' - when taken in the 'naval architecture' sense of 'to lay-out a hull of a ship' - which is where I believe 'loft' comes from ?
        Anyway whatever fits is best...
        ๐Ÿ˜„
        Enjoy...

              Shall I leave you FRench purists to ponder ?
              It's easy enough for you to edit your own FR lingvo files to say whatever you like - just open with Notepad and do a Find/Replace on the offending phrase and insert what you prefer...
              Extruder des arรชtes par profilage entre courbes

              your
              Tendre une surface entre 2 courbes
              or
              Maillage entre courbes snappier
              or
              Courbes vers maillage ???
              It's your language, so say it how you like...

              Even EN-US users can even reword what their English version says, so
              Extrude Edges by Loft
              could be edited to
              Loft a Mesh using Selected Curves
              which is perhaps a more accurate name, but personally I am now 'stuck' with the EEby... epithet for these tools. ๐Ÿ˜’

                      fantastic, yet again... and it works even on my Mac...

                      so a question about spacing of interconnects.

                      can they be set equal, i.e. distance between lines A and B = x equally spaced new lines?

                      john

                      learn from the mistakes of others, you may not live long enough to make them all yourself...

                        Because it's a 'bezier' curve that joins the curves the segments are not evenly spaced: however, some have asked if the 'segments per section' could be set individually - I am thinking about that... ๐Ÿค“

                              I find "Edges by Rails" to be by far my favorite of the set. I find it has the most predictable and satisfactory results.

                                Hi TIG,

                                Do you think that you could add the date to the topic title when you update them? I find myself checking it daily to see if you've updated the toolset.

                                With the frequency that you bang out revisions it's hard to keep up with you ๐Ÿ˜ฒ

                                Just a thought

                                Download the free D'oh Book for SketchUp ๐Ÿ“–

                                  The zip has the date as its name e.g. extrudeTools_20100312.zip and I do add an announcement to say it's changed and a link back to the base page, and I do add announcements to the individual tools' page too - linking back to their base pages, which in turn link back to the zipped set's base page. I stopped adding the update's date or version rference to the threads title because I kept forgetting to change it when I updated the zip ! ๐Ÿ˜’ By putting the date in the zip's name I avoid that error...
                                  So the answer to your request is... 'No' ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ๐Ÿ˜‰

                                      Several of the files had a potential [but very rare] glitch in calling sub-methods - it has now been fixed.
                                      The very few users who reported these problems should try this update and see if they now have a fully working set...

                                        EEbyLathe has been changed - see its updated help thread for full details...
                                        It now has dynamic angle and segment [45 or 9s] entry in the VCB and a 'ghost display' of what it'll make OR if you enter 0 as the angle you can pick two points to set the rotation angle, with <Alt> to toggle <>180 degrees and <Shift> to toggle c/clockwise...
                                        The affected 'lingvo' files will be updated shortly...
