[Plugin][$] TopoShaper - v2.7b - 30 Jan 26

It's home made. I wrote it long time ago, but I remember that for the interpolation, I did not find anything suitable and usable for my level of math in the literature.

For the upsampling of the triangulation, I remember that I tried the Steiner refinement approach, but it did not work well for what I wanted to do. So, I built my own method.

I was not familiar with the butterfly subdivision algorithm and still am not. Maybe it is a more conventional approach.

Hi, can you tell me whether we can use toposhaper for a terrain that uses both contours and cloud points (spot levels) together?

fredo6

No. At the moment, it is isocontours OR cloud points. You can simulate a few cloud points by small circular contours.

Thanks Fredo6

@fredo6 It's a late reply from me, but thanks for the explanation. I'm honestly impressed you built the algorithm from scratch!

Is your libfredo up todate too?

Please run the Window > Libfredo Settings > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation Support menu command in SketchUp and copy/paste the output into your reply.

I wanted you to know that the latest Toposhaper version does not work on the new Mac OS version of Sketchup 26.2.242. I upgraded my sketchup and now Toposhaper does not work. I have another workstation with Sketchup version 26.1.257 and your version of Toposhaper still works.

Can you indicate which Mac you have (Intel or ARM) and run the Window > Libfredo Settings > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation Support menu command in SketchUp, as well as describe what does not work. Do you see the menu and toolbar, do you get error messages.
I would also suggest that you open the Ruby console and leave it open when you close Sketchup. When you restart Sketchup, the console will open and show possible error messages.
