      Since I purchased the license I keep getting Ruby code errors. I have not managed to use the plugin successfully.

      Depending on the model, FredoCorner may get into error.

      So the best would be to PM me or post the model so that I have a look.

      PS: This has nothing to do with the license. The error is in the algorithm.

        Like many people around the world, I was surprised that Fredo plugins went from free to paid. This is absurd!

        Having plugins that have been free for decades and that are quietly going from free to paid, I don't know what quality could I give to this maneuver ...

        Yesterday evening I saw, in an instant, the error message indicating "trial version finished", I thought it was April Fool's Day a little too fresh, but not when I got to the download page that it was not my astonishment when I saw that it was paying, whereas it was free just before. it's a very, very stupid operating system!

        I have absolutely nothing against people who are looking for a return on investment. But the way to do it is not possible!
        Inform people, take opinions, etc.
        Especially that, 15 days ago when I updated I did not see that it was paid, since it is not displayed on the list of the plug-in store.

        Another thing, buying it will not be a problem for me, if I have to I would buy it. But not individually, at 22 € / plug-in it's very, if not too expensive.
        Make a pack of all plugins, or in this case lower the price from 10 to ~ 12 € / plug-in

        22 € x (number of plugins) = too expensive.
        Sketchup is starting to take the path of software that is losing value, already that the license is very expensive, if even the plug-ins are not affordable, Sketchup is losing more and more credibility, and that I have read on hundreds of forums around the world about the Fredo plug-in which switched to the Pay system

        Do not forget, behind there is Blender much more efficient, Open Source, with a more family interface that allows you to learn faster than before. At this speed it's soon the end of Sketchup

          Fredo didn't just quietly spring this change on the world yesterday. It was announced months ago that some of his extensions would be changing to requiring paid licenses. It's a one time license fee for each extension and includes the updates as they come along. You aren't being forced to purchase the license for FredoCorner. You can choose to use RoundCorner instead. There's still no charge for that one.

            @Brickokermis: 22€ per plugin is not too cheap, but lets suppose you used some of (now commercial) Fredeo plugins for 10 years in the past and will continue to use it for additional 10 years in the future; this is approx 1€/year. Just think about it.
            P.S. I'd agree though that bundle would be much more user-friendly format.

              👎 It used to be free... At least let us use our old versions, why do you have to make them expire?

                You can still use RoundCorner without paying for it.

                  Hi, I'm having trouble validating the licence. I keep getting this message:
                  Sorry - An error occured in the communication with Sketchucation
                  I've checked I've got the up-to-date Plug-in:
                  ExtensionStore v4.0.0
                  FredoCorner 3.2
                  LibFredo 11.6a

                  Screen Shot:

                    Are you connected to the Internet when doing the validation?

                          Two things. One the plug in is GREAT. Second, mine seems to have expired. I have NO problem with paying for a perpetual license but there is NO way I can find, to pay! I NEED the plugin but it won't install. Or at least appear for me to use. The sketchUcation extension manager says it's installed but I keep getting errors and it doesn't appear for me to use. Help!!! I have the latest version of the Fredo6 library installed.

                            When FredoCorner expires, it displays a dialog.

                            FredoCorner has expired.png

                            Just click on the button Manage License. You get this dialog (accessible also from the menu Tools > Fredo6 Collection > FredoCorner > License....

                            FredoCorner License dialog.png

                            The just click on Obtain License to get to the Purchase page.

                            Fredo

                                There is tax in the checkout, in my country we use vat so I should be charged with no tax for sale outside US or be able to claim vat. For now price is more the 30$. Can you advice. Thanks

                                  Hi Fredo, I've been using FredoCorner for quite a while, and it is indispensable!

                                  I would like to buy a perpetual licence, but is it possible to buy only 1 seat? I use it for my 3D printing hobby, and have no need for 3 seats. Also, I'm quite poor 😮

                                  Thank you for all you have done for the SketchUp community!
                                  Adrian

                                    NEW RELEASE: FredoCorner v2.4a - 28 May 21

                                    Requirement: LibFredo6 11.6a
                                    Requirement: Sketchucation ExtensionStore 4.1.0

                                    FredoCorner v2.4a is a maintenance release for technical adjustments and extension of validity.


                                    Please note that, in the current version of FredoCorner:

                                    • there are issues with some shortcut modifiers (Ctrl, Alt) on Mac)
                                    • there are known issues and bugs here and there. This concerns in particular Collisions, i.e. when the offset is too large.
                                    • Terminal corners (that is ending on a single edge) may present issues and bugs
                                    • No documentation yet, so watch the videos that I will publish.

                                        Ive bought a permanent License, downloaded it and then validate it. Worked fine for 2 weeks, but now sketchup just tell me that my licence expired 😞

                                          @Kred,

                                          Your license did not expire. There is just a problem.

                                          For which reason did you release and then revalidate the license? Did you reinstall something?

                                            Hi fredo thx for the quick answer!

                                            I didn't release anything, but i had a major Windows 10 update, that messed many tiny things! Do you think this could be linked?
