        OH MY GOD!
        Thank You so Much
        I just tried out this tool and it works it is saving me sooo much time in my creating the faces in my 3d models! and since I do 3d modeling of my own car designs so I can use them in unity this tool is like a blessing! and that it is free just makes you a generous person! if anyone else made this tool they would more than likely of charged a large amount of money for this tool which would suck because I literally don't have a budget for my 3d modeling because I don't have a job right now and I'm currently living with my parents.

          I'm using Curviloft on a Mac. It worked great for one day. Now skinning process bar just stops with 0%. No further effort on my part seems to correct this situation. I'm trying skinning function on a very simple wire frame. Can anyone offer suggestions?

            Maybe you could post the SKP file? We might actually be able to help you if we could get our mitts on it.

              Curviloft skinning is working now, after uninstalling and reinstalling Fredo6 Tools. The disruption of began after installing Fredo6 Tools over top the already installed Curviloft.

                Request: For lofting along a path, could its prompt read,
                "1st Select Lofting Path, thenEdges to be Lofted".
                It would help new users or those who haven't used the plugin in a while.

                  Good idea. Thanks
                  Actully Curviloft needs some refresh to be more user-friendly.

                    Is there any way to resize the control panel in the Sketchup Interface? Even when I lower my screen resolution the Control panel remains rather small - too small to read.

                    See attachment.

                      I don't see the attachment.

                      Unfortunately, there is no solution from the plugin. You may want to have a look at the following thread, where the problem is evoked with some solution.

                        By the way, the latest version (published for SU2016) includes a status and tooltip to indicate the order of selection.

                            Curviloft is creating strange looking geometry on Single F-Spline Curve Mode. Can't figure out why.
                            I would appreciate any idea why this is happening.
                            Thank you.

                            Please see attached image and skp file.

                              Derei,

                              There is a bug / limitation for close-loop contours with F-Spline. It certainly deserves a fix.

                              Might be the same for B-Spline with close-loop by the way.

                                After MANY tries I was able to fix it. I cut the loop in two, deleted the last segment (on the part whith the glitch), then I mirrored it to make it again closed loop. After doing the same to all tree loops, the skinning went well. Can't understand why. What was different in the newly made curve...

                                Because I tried before only to delete the two segments (on both side of symmetry plane) and redraw them... but that didn't fix the problem. Only completely deleting half and mirroring it after redrawing the segment helped.

                                  Glad you found a workaround.

                                  Actually, closing splines 'nicely' is not so easy, and FSpline is somehow special, home-made. So I need to adjust the method.

                                    @derei: I never close loops but always work with two halves that I group after the both lofts are done. Works quite nicely.

                                      Thank you! If I could use only one plugin in SU, that would be Curviloft 😄

                                          Have you installed fresh versions of both Curviloft AND LibFredo6?

                                            Yes. Although in my memory I had Curviloft already installed, I was not finding it anywhere. So maybe I did not installed it before on Sketchup 15.

                                            So I installed from the Sketchucation Store Curviloft, it didn´t work (already showed that message). Then I installed the last LibFredo. No change.
