Hi Fredo, i noticed that JPP will treat group copies as instances - i think it would be great to bypass this and have it treat groups as separate. perhaps something for the next update cycle...
Definitely. This happens for freshly copied groups, that behave as components until you edit them. I need to correct this as I did in FredoCorner. Just some work!

fantastic! : )

Hi, first of all I really like this plugin and I have been using it for some time now. Somehow the face selection via surface stopped working for me. The plugin only selects by face if I set it to surface.

Weird... May be you could
- open the Ruby console before launching JPP to check if there are errors
- post your model, or show a short video of the problem

I opened the Ruby console and then started the plugin, but there was no text in the console, so I think there's no problem there.
I don't think that there's a problem with my model. I tried it on different models and it wasn't working either.
Maybe there is a problem with LibFredo? I updated it last week and I haven't noticed any problem before. I tried reinstalling LibFredo and JPP, but it didn't fix anything.Here is how it looks in SketchUp, no error message, just not working as intended:
-
In Sketchup, surface is defined by a set of faces whose common edges are soft (so not smooth).
Can you check in your model.
Also, what happens when you turn off "Hidden Geometry" ?
-
Round Push Pull with minimum number of rounding segments = 1, that would be nice
(Now it's 2) -
Fredo, would it be possible to add 'afterward selection department' to JPP?
Say 3 check boxes that rule which category will stay selected: initial faces, offset faces, or connecting faces. -

Say 3 check boxes that rule which category will stay selected: initial faces, offset faces, or connecting faces.I am not sure I understand. The selection scope option is kept across JPP sessions and even Sketchup sessions.
-
Say you have state 0, then run JPP and immediately after execution (on exit) you'd have (wishful thinking) 3 states.
The goal is ability to group selection and assign diffrent material or make some geniuos manipulations (independently).
-
OK. I get what you want to get.
Doable indeed, but this is another option in a GUI which some consider already 'bloated'!!Currently, JPP keeps the selection on the faces which have been selected.

OK. Could you please change this setting it to the offsetones? It would solve all my request without UI bloating. You see, I can Cnrl+C initial faces before JPP execution, and then just paste original faces after JPP is done. This simple hack restores original selection.

The native SketchUp Push Pull does the following
- if and only if a face is pre-selected before launching the PP tool...
- ...its offset fasce is hard-selected when you finished the push pull.
This means that if you wish to push-pull another face right after within the same Push-Pull session, you have to press Escape to deselect.
Is this behavior you want to reproduce with JPP?
-
This is the way I imagine:
- Preselect
- Run JPP
- Hit Enter to exit
- Offset faces stay selected
It's very similar to the principle described in Pilou gifs here:
http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=1523&start=30
but in our case we deal with faces, not lines
P.S. By 'offset faces' I mean case #1 (see my picture above ^^^) -
-
Tested right now. Works perfectly, many many thanks! I'll post tomorrow some micro explanation how distribute materials in conjunction with JPP.

Fredo, when FollowPushPull is used on chamfer face, is there way to get somehow an exact 'chamfer 0' state?
-
Massively useful plugins as always Fredo. Had the following error found when attempting round pushpull. Here's the log dump.
Thanks in advance!
