[Plugin][$] FredoPortrait - v2.9a - 01 Apr 24

CadFather

here we go, just when you thought you'd seen it all... another gem

only wish would be for Portrait scenes to remember subgroups hidden states, something SU can't do unfortunately. (perhaps it does already?)

^ This one is on the way but the littleproblem with the tools from this author they are buggy as hell.

I am not talking about 2D-projections, but just FaceMe component.
Projection is another algorithm, which I think is already largely covered by several plugins.

for example? TT's flatten selection works only in Z axiz, vertex tools scaling can't produce truely 0.00 scaling

Thanks again for another Fredo imagined plugin.
Very special

Fredo, the plugin is monumental!
For 2D components, I'd just suggest:
some kind of automaticnaming
and option for vector version

Difficult, because you can select several objects, including faces, edges, etc... And even if a single object is selected, you may want to choose a specific name.
I could of course create component names like '2D Component #1", or even let Sketchup assign a name, etc..., but that's an encouragement to users to have a model full of generaic names, difficult to browse afterward.

Not sure what you mean by 'Vector version'.

]I am experiencing a strange issue in the Portrait Studio where I cannot Export an image file. I am able to adjust settings all the way up to clicking "Generate Image", and the below image shows.
At first, I thought it might just take a little longer. However, I have left and come back 30 minutes later to the same "generating image..." screen.

Hi Dhannah,

This is a bug, which only happens when the File mode is "ask". Thanks for signaling it.

I am making a fix, which I published as v1.2b.

hi there,

amazing idea and plugin - however i have some "errors" .. when using it, it happens that geometry gets "ubuild" in exactly the manner i have build it.. but reverse.. it kinda reverse engineers my model

funny effect but renders the plugin useless

anyone else with this problem? if the author is interested i can share my screen and show the problem

best, franz

Not sure I understand what is the problem. So it would be helpful to post pictures and possibly attach or PM me the model, also indicating which function of FredoPortrait you use (e.g. Image, Export, 2D component?)

Fredo, This is a very interesting plugin that I think it very valuable. However, I have a couple questions/comments:

Am I missing something on the toolbar? Here is a screen shot of the toolbar the way it looks in my 2019.2 Pro version.
Is there any way that this tool could be used in conjunction with Twilight Render? I use Twilight Render to make the materials look more realistic but I would like to use your transparent background feature with the render tool.
