Hi!

I think I've find the extension it cause a Bug

CleanUp3 3.4.3

I install juste TT lib, I test to make a terrain, no problem
I installCleanUp3 3.4.3, I test to make a terrain, problem with toposhaper
I uninstallCleanUp 3 3.4.3, I test to make a terrain, problem with toposhaper
I uninstallTT lib, I test to make a terrain, problem with toposhaper
I uninstallToposhaper and reinstall it, I test to make a terrain and it work great.

--> TT lib and CleanUp3 can cause issues

Before install TTLib and Cleanup3

After install, but before close and reload the file

After reopen the file and test a terrain

This time it's ok, but 5 minutes ago it didn't work... No idea
And I've make the same install

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

I install Fredo6 Push Pull:

and I close the file and reopen it:

and I test terrain Toposhaper:

@volpino170790

Could you install LibFredo6 v13.5a to see if this improves the situation.

Hi!

It seems to be the LibFredo6 because (apart from basic SketchUp extensions) I only installed Fredo6 extensions and the bug occurs.

However, sometimes it resolves itself and the Toposhaper toolbar appears.
I haven't been able to find a routine that produces the bug for sure.

After installing Curviloft (same message as after installing FredoTools)

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Since installing version 13.5a, the bug no longer seems to occur but
there are always error messages for installations of extensions requiring a Fredo6 license.

After install of FredoSpline:

Thanks a lot for your speed react

Did you restart SketchUp after installation?

Fredo's tools are comprehensive and some need a restart.

If you right click your toolbar zone is Topshaper checked?

Dave R

Make sure you have the current version of LibFredo6 and the Sketchucation ExtensionStore tool installed. Then quit and restart SketchUp.

Hello how are you.
Is there a way to complete the mesh?
It is that sometimes it has happened to me that it does not fully reach the edges.

In this example, the top corner doesn't quite reach the edge.

Any help, I would appreciate it.

Would you have the model so that I can have a look.

Hi, thanks for your response.
Here I attach the file.
It's part of a building outline, so it won't have curves, but it's a green area.

Hello,
I need help!
I'm puzzled and I can't get on top of this issue
this great plugin from the time I've installed the new 2020 SU it's not working as it was effectively before...
I attach some files maybe someone understands what's going on

thanks, everybody will be going to help

Hi,

I am looking at generating complex surfaces from 3d contours, which have a height difference of 0.3m. I notice on videos that the grid size seems to have a max, what is the max for the grid size to be? and will it give me the granularity to show contours 0.3m apart, across a model which could be 1km wide.

Thanks

Your profile says you are using SketchUp 2023 Free/Make which indicates you are using the free web-based version. That version of SketchUp doesn't have any options for running extensions. You'll need SketchUp Pro.

Hi I just purchased this extension today and am trying to use it but for some reason it is inserting random outliers into my point cloud. I am viewing hidden geometry and have no clue why it is inserting random peaks and dips into my fairly level terrain. I attached the SketchUp file.

What roundness and smoothness values are you using?`

It can affect the final output so its best to experiment. Especially points clouds that have uneven didtribution.

Hey, Fredo, a little theoretical question about terrain generation from point cloud:
What was the mathematical foundation for the terrain mesh upsampling / interpolation algorithm? I mean the tool which increases the mesh density and smooths it, preserving the exact positions of input vertices, as we add iterations. Was it the butterfly subdivision algorithm? Have you used any specific paper to create this tool, or did you come up with the meshing algorithm yourself? I'm asking because I'm looking for something similar for Blender. I know, however, that butterfly subdivision is available in MeshLab, and it does more-less what Topo Shaper does. Besides that, I'm really just curious.
