      I see the issue.
      I see the cause.
      I am working on a fix.

      Watch out for an update...

        I ran into an issue w/ the lathe tool. Seems sometimes it doesn't put the starting and ending faces on the lathed object. Pics attached. The face created consists of 2 edges and 1 arc. I've tried making them all curves and even welding them all into one big arc to no avail. The fix is simple. I'm ok w/ it but thought I'd bring it up.

        Thanks Tig for all the great tools you've made and maintained over the years! Your work is heartily appreciated!! πŸ‘

        [edit] Using SU Make 2017 for Windows


        shows mesh before create. Vertical line is chosen axis of rotation


        Shows mesh post-create


        Shows fixed mesh and lines that had to be added to fix it.

          Hi!
          Your tool always asks a lot of questions and honestly, it takes time to answer them. What about some dialog box to set default parameters for each sub-tool, like Fredo does, and do not prompting questions every time after making an extrusion?

            If it takes you time to answer several question, ask yourself how many hours TIG spent writing this plugin, or draw your extrusion by hand, you surely will go faster πŸ˜‰

              Maybe TIG could release a commercial version that offers some user set parameters instead of the way the free version works.

                Sometimes I have to create a lot of extrusions in the row and speed matters then.
                He surely devoted a lot of time to that but isn't it the aim of programming to make things as fast as possible?
                And yes, I'd gladly pay for a version that works smooth with SU 17 and has ability to set default params πŸ˜„ If only TIG would like to go commercial.

                  Very sorry to say SketchUp 2019 appears to have caused a conflict. These messages did not appear with 2018.

                  Other TIG plugins seem to be fine: Lattice Maker, Mirror, Split tools, TIG Weld

                  Your time and abilities are so valuable. I hope you can find some way to look into this.

                      Version 5.0 fixes the v2019 incompatibility.
                      However, please note that the ExtrudeEdgesbyFace tool no longer loads, this is because it crashes in v2019, and was already known to be flaky in the more recent SketchUp versions anyway ! Safest to skip it completely...
                      I have been looking for a workaround [I must admit with little success], but if I can get that tool de-flaked then I'll re-update things back to the full set of 11...

                        Thanks Tig, that has been stopping me from moving to 2019 full time.

                          Hi,
                          Just installed today, and pleased to see that is translated in french.
                          Unfortunately, the plugin palette doesn't appear, and I don't know to get it visible.

                          Then, the first test is not good; certainely do I need to see one more time the video tutorial

                            I assume you mean the toolset's 'Toolbar'.
                            On a MAC 'Toolbars' are activated from the .... View > Tool Palettes menu item...

                              Hi TIG,

                              Your Extrudetools-Full set is excellent, but I find that there only 10 tools, single Section Lofting is not included,could you please add that into the Extrudetools-Full set.Then the plugin would be more pefect.

                              Thanks.
                              Best Regards.

                                As I explained in the recent post https://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=645437#p645437 it was removed because of issues with v2019...
                                Have you looked for alternatives - I think there might be some around...

                                          I removed one of the tools because it became incompatible with newer SketchUp versions [and would have needed a complete re-coding], but there are alternatives...

                                            Is there an equivalent to something like "Extrude edges by loft to lattice", to make a lattice out of more than 2 cross-sections?
