      Assuming you have download both the latest LibFredo and installed it, and also the the latest version of Curvizard...
      and you have restarted SketchUp completely...

      Then that error is indeed strange.

      You profile says: you have a MAC using SketchUp Pro - pre-v6 !
      Can you correct it and advise us on your current configuration...

      Help us to help you...

      I have indeed installed both latest versions and restarted SU completely multiple times.

      And oops! I am not sure why that was listed as such, I am using SU 2018.

        Cassie,

        I just published an update to Curvizard (v2.1a), as I realized the published version was quite old (2015).

        Can you tell me if you still get an error.

        Thanks

        Fredo

              Hi Fredo,

              actually ´m using your palette tools a lot. Not the Curvizard yet, but wonder if it would be possible to draw a real spatial contour.
              The tutorial did not refer on a spatial type of editing the vertices.

              My desire is related to an intuitive process creating contour lines of a hull, which is not yet defined , means from scratch.

              The strategy follows many times to find a resulting spatial contour from two related planar contours.

              Do you have an idea in terms of Plugin for this ?

              Thank you for your work its really great .

              Uli

                Hi Fredo I'm getting a repeatable error when using Curvizard Convert Edges to Guides.
                It happens with any edge, even a single straight line.
                This is with 2018 pro all plugins up to date, Libfredo6 8.4g
                It works correctly in 2017.
                I've attached the error text.

                    Curvizard 2.2a introduces new toolbar icons designed by JClements. They are provided in Vector mode (SVG, PDF) and Raster mode (PNG), and thus should scale for hi-res screens on SketchUp versions >= SU2016 (and all versions on Mac)

                      Since there's a little hope to see this as core function, I wish we had a commercialFredoSplines with following interactivefeatures:

                      1. handles for shape editing
                      2. 3 types of control points: smooth\corner\bezier
                      3. interactive refinement (=segmentation) control
                      4. Important for arch modelling: total slope (in %%) AND (optionaly) total height input

                                This would be different!

                                Anyway, there are already several plugins doing that, like TIG xLine2Line.

                                  New feature "Convert to Arc/Circle":

                                  Great, thanks a lot Fredo.

                                  • Is it correct, that when using "Make curves", that now the curve is converted automatically to an arc as well?

                                  • Now I can finally convert the corner edges generated by FredoCorner (using circle rounding) back to arcs, if desired. This then allows adding radius measurements in Sketchup and Layout! 😄

                                  • Any chance that this feature is added as an option to FredoCorner for the generation of the corner edges when rounding using circles?

                                    Correct. I may introduce an option to disable this behavior however.

                                    I understand that you ask for creating curves, possibly arcs when applicable.
                                    I assume that only the rounding edges on rounded borders are to be converted to curves.

                                      Merci beaucoup Fredo

                                      Un outil qui va remplacer avantageusement (parce que beaucoup plus complet) "niline2arc" de Nobnob qui, malgré tout et sans mise à jour depuis 6 ans, fonctionne toujours.
                                      Les améliorations que j'apprécie:

                                      • sélection multiple, y compris avec les faces
                                      • ne pas être obligé d'entrer à l'intérieur des groupes et composants
                                      • l'outil reconnait les cercle ou arc même si l'option "convertir en courbe" à été choisie

                                      peut être est t'il possible de découvrir d'autres astuces ...

                                        Since an arc or n-gon (polygon) is as well a curve, it is not wrong to always convert to an arc or polygon, if it is an arc or polygon. I do not see any disadvantage for this.

                                        Yes, only the corner edges, not as well the inner edges or borders.
                                        To clarify I marked in below picture the edges.

                                          Conversion to curve is probably possible.
                                          But be aware that in most cases, this won't be an arc of circle, even if you chose a Circular profile, except in the special cases where the corner is purely made of orthogonal faces.

                                            Looking already forward to it.
                                            Agree, it will not be in all cases an arc. But it is enough, if the edge to be rounded is perpendicular to the face at the end of the edge.
