      Updated to v1.3

      Note:
      Weld Draw does not draw welded loops. It will also split if it intersects with any edge and get a little funky. It's primary function it to create a simple curve from drawn edges[lines]

        Cool Rich, great job on posting a plugin. I'll never ever use it as I'm sure I won't understand its accent, but should be lots of fun to install just to hear it mock me and my modeling habits all the time ๐Ÿคฃ

                  Lived in Boston for a year about 15yrs ago. Was a painter/decorator/illegal alien!

                  But that's the only blot on an otherwise perfect record.

                        Where does this plugin locate itself? I have it installed, the toolbar works fine but when I look in the plugins folder the PenTool+.rb or a folder holding the icons are nowhere to be found. I am confused (as usual).

                          Look for a folder called 'rob_hsltool'

                          The 'Draw' menu contains the modes of drawing also

                            Not there that I can see. Weird. Here is my plugins folder and a screen shot of the toolbar active.

                              Any chance that's your SU7 Plugins directory?

                                Nope, I checked and the folder you see is here:
                                C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins

                                This is my SU7 Plugin folder.

                                    Well that is what I downloaded from the first post in this thread. I can delete it from the plugins folder and I still get the pen tools to show up when I start SketchUp. They have to be referenced somewhere I just don't see it. I even did a search on the computer and they don't show up either. Maybe if I restart my machine it will go away???
                                    Odd.

                                      Well I'm the wrong gut to ask. I probably contributed to 5-10% of the earlier part of this plugin. I'm not blaming TIG for this behaviour but maybe he can shed some light on this?

                                      I can't see how this can happen because the .rb clearly states to look in the 'rob_hsltool' folder for the toolbar icons. You have neither in your Plugins folder? Have you 'show hidden files' enabled? In case you accidentally hid them ๐Ÿ˜•

                                        Yep, show hidden files is on and after restarting and not having the zip file, the ruby file or that image file folder in the computer at all I still get the pen tools showing up.

                                            I know right!?

                                            One thought, since I am on a network here it might have been installed somewhere other than my machine and is pointing there...? Just a thought.
