S4u to components failed!

[JSA_SJ]

Hi. I'm making the infinite staircase as one of the Mobius strip design, but following the tutorial on a website to create steps, I'd need to use the new plugin 's4u to components' to make all lines components then extrude line and thicken it. Not sure why 's4u to components' just can't work, could it be because that I used the trial version? Somehow it's just not making components as I wished...

Could anyone pls give me some tips here or where I possibly did wrong or had not done...?

I haven't used the extension but there appear to be some instructions here. Have you tried following them? You could also e-mail the author and see if he can give you some idea. Probably need to send the SKP file to him, too.

Thank you Dave. I feel like it’s the axis’ that I didn’t set up correctly, yes I know where to download the plugin only I don’t have a paypal, I’ll work with trial version for now.

This plugin the ‘Lines to Component’ requires a face and line(s), I had the line(s) turned to component when I set a line to be component, just couldn’t get the correct direction - my model component is horizontal, but plugin turned component is vertical... I prob should set the XYZ axis the exact as the sketch up origins.
