      You are lucky! ๐Ÿ’š
      Crash(es) becomes exacly like previous post and even more beautifuly! ๐Ÿ˜‰

      But maybe I have a little idea! I use 2016 and you 2014 so...?

      Even I input crazzy thing your plugin must alert me but not make a direct crash! ๐Ÿ’š

      Thanks a lot (I have W7/SU2014 on my work computer, W10 SU/2015Pro +2016pro + 2016Make in my home computer ... ๐Ÿ˜‰ )

      I reproduced the error now. It is only on SU 2016pro/make. (on SU2014 I will try later)

      But now I have to travel for 2-3 weeks working abroad... (Without my home computer... let see if I can do something during this time)

      Thanks again! Please try to create in an other way the 'Arc' or don't use PomPi on it don't use undo โ˜€

        Thanks for pilouto report:

        - If you apply Auto pipe -with a certain parameters- to "Arc" SU can crash! (Somtimes only when you try to undo it)
        (I typed into the first post too..)
        Sorry about it I will try to figure out why... sometime.

          And here I was thinking this was just another piping plugin. It seems I'd use this a lot.

          Let me ask you one thing: When it calculates the autopiping does it use standard corners radiuses or are they user input?

          I do a lot of those and always have to correct them after checking with my favorite steel worker ๐Ÿ˜„

            Happy to hear if you find it useful! ๐Ÿ˜„

            The radius of the corner (elbow) is "standard": coming from RBE field, what you can enter manually or coming from your (or mine) CSV file.
            As you may discovered in the user manual, You can create your CSV file according to your taste... and load it.

            The angle is determined by selected lines. (ignored the ABE filed)

                Fixed version in first post!
                (I hope if it OK now... I have not much time to test.)

                Fixed: (2016_0621_1551) Please test!

                • The "Arc" related crash should be OK
                • The interface will notice (and not allow to anything bend related operation) if outside diameter>=2bend radius (DO1>=2RBE)
                  - Note the input fields check still not 100% complete, be careful what you type in. If you got crash please report here!

                  Hi Dezmo,

                  Thanks for this plugin - it's really useful for people working with pipes... ๐Ÿ‘
                  In the past I worked with cooling and ventilation systems and I've been using the 3skeng plugin, but I really like your plugin... ๐Ÿ˜„

                  Is it possible only to have the outer mesh of the pipe?
                  I'm asking about this, as the thickness isn't really needed and if you have very complex models, it will take a lot of geometry and make SU slow when orbiting the model...

                  Cheers
                  Kim Frederik

                    Nice to see if you like my plugin!

                    Put 0 to inner diameter... ๐Ÿ˜‰

                      So obvious... ๐Ÿ˜„ ๐Ÿ‘

                      I don't have the need for making pipes in my new position with another company - at least it will be very rare...
                      But I will definitely recommend your plugin to the company I worked with in the past...
                      They're still using the 3skeng plugin, but your plugin have some great features...
                      In particular I like the way users can make their own libraries...
                      The company I worked with used a special DIN and I always had to adjust radius for bends and length of reducers etc...
                      With the option your plugin has, it's much easier... ๐Ÿ‘

                        Yes. Thanks for nice words. And you are right this was the main goal to use external file as a dimensions, so you can quickly choose what you want. Sure, you can override it manually you don't need some dimensions so often.

                        As you can see you can "play" a lot with parameters but at the end you can resize the UI to smaller and you can use as a "toolbar" only...

                        (BTW when I'm finishing my work in Denmark ๐Ÿ˜‰ I'll try to make some "final tune" on PomPi and the user manual... but I still can't give a deadline... )

                                  Update in the first post:
                                  Changes: (2016_0711_2005)

                                  • The HTML UI tuned (horizontal UI removed)
                                  • User input check is massively improved
                                    Note the input fields check still not 100% complete, be careful what you type in. If you got crash please report here!
                                  • Undo stack is more clear now
                                  • User manual updated
                                  • Other small improvement
                                  • clean up, reduce file sizes, typos etc...
                                  • small bugs, and other things what I don't remember...

                                    Seems remember i have made the 3SKeng and site in French in the past for the fun! ๐Ÿ’š
                                    (seems they have updated that! There is only rest the menu on the left! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

                                    For the UI I need a list or a multi-Language system, because I don't want to swim in the code! ๐Ÿ˜„

                                      But unfortunately the code itself is not prepared for more than 1 language. (yet?) But at least the manual can be useful... ๐Ÿ˜‰

                                            One thing I'm really missing is the ability to make bends other than 90 degree...
                                            With the 3skeng you have the option to select the bend degree when connecting it to a pipe...

                                            If I select the pipe and bend, I can't get i.e. a 45 degree angle...

                                            Cheers
