[Plugin] ExtrudeTools - Full Set
-
-
Hi TIG,
I could not find the 'ExtrudeAlongPath.rb' thread, so let me spam here.
You know what would make my sketchup life complete?
Being able to ExtrudeAlongPath on multiple\not connectededges.
I use this .rb constantly and it'd save a LOT of time.
Thank you in advance
P.S. yet another wish:
the default alignment: centroid, width\length: 5\5. -
There are three of my older extrusion tools that are not in the zipped set.
Two are still available from Didier's crai Ruby Depot
ExtrudeAlongPathandTubeAlongPath
The other onePipeAlongPathis also available here at SCF http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=7547#p7547The zipped set's
ExtrudeEdgesByFacetool effectively replaces them all: with it you can draw any 'flat' face shape desired and use a cpoint to fine-tune its initial setting-out: it also follows multiple selected paths [unlike most other tools where branching etc stops the operation]...
However,PipeAlongPathdoes allow circular 'pipe-like' extrusions with variable int/ext.diameters set by dialog, so that tool does still have its own uses... -
Indeed 'extrude edges by face' works smoothly.I'll adopt it for sure. Thank you!
though.. the oldie 'ExtrudeAlongPath' is a bit faster to execute in boring rectangular situations
(which are 99% in my practice) -
Hi, I'm an architecture student... these tools will really helped me visualise my ideas! They are similar to Rhino's 'Panelling Tools' plugin, but this is not free. I've had a play with extrude tools for an hour or so... I'm addicted! Thanks TIG:

Another couple:

FYI, I LOVE your extrude tools, TIG, but I wanted to let you know that I get consistent crashes with almost all of the extrude tools when I have SU Podium installed. Any way to know what the offending functions are?
-
Podium is the "offending function".
-
There are several scripts that mess with native class/methods.
These cause several legitimate scripts to fail, because they will illegitimately cause some methods [particularly with 'groups'] to return the wrong values.
These include SketchyPhysics, DrivingDimensions, SunTools, MatchBox and some versions of Podium... -
i don't have many words about this plugin... only one: amazing. is listed in the 'must have list plugin'!
ciao and tnx! -
You made my day! Thank you

Hey Tig, in the lattice tool, is it possible to have the material choices include the material layers I have created in the project instead of the generic red, green, etc.?

No, not unless you recode it yourself, and then the material-list will become unmanageably long ! ...
So make it say 'Red', then edit the group, select a 'Red' face and use the context-menu to select 'all matching material'... Then use the Materials Browser to paint what's selected with any other material you desire - either in the Model or from an external Collect. You can do something similar for the 'Glass' too...
It's only seconds to do, and this method allows you to change to whatever you want at any time... -
OK here is whole error string... I believe the top is relating to extrude tools.

Should I attempt to have clean install of SketchUp?
-
OK... guess I was wrong... after clean install I have now ruby console. I will now first install thea and twilight and do one plugin in time and see.
-
Good idea...
A screen-shot of your Tools & Plugins folder will help if you continue to have problems...
Check that you haven't [re]installed any old 'toolbar' compilations etc that might put old versions of 'system files' into Plugins when they should only ever be in Tools - e.g. 'sketchup.rb' ... -
I have found the culprit which triggered all this problems. It is solar north extension.
Now I have Ruby Console and plugins so far installed are all loading without error....
-
I wonder how the Solar North extension could cause all that?
-
Are you sure it's called Solar-North??
There was a known rogue script called something like Solar-Position...
That might have messed with the system-file Solar-North that has NO KNOWN issuesCan you please post a screen-shot of your problem folders............ you make it doubly difficult for us to help when you don't help us...
We try to help... but the help goes to those that help themselves...
[missing out a 'God' reference there - as the more astute of you might have spotted...]This lack of common-sense seems endemic
