            Agreed follow me can be used but....
            there has to be a simpler way. If anybody has used or played with MOI 3d ( http://moi3d.com/ )you'll know what i'm talking about.

            • Pick a line or number of lines
            • fillet/chamfer tool
            • specify distances and boom
              you've got something wonderful

            Wish it was this easy in SU

              I think what Andrew wants is like that:

              http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/sas/Newbie/chamfer.jpg

              Of course, he (and I) want to know how to make the cut accurately by specifying a distance. Also for fillet (by giving a radius).

              Many thanks.

              P: executor

                I very much agree with you Ypnos.
                It should work like that and it would be a great tool to have, certainly towards photoreal rendering.
                SU7?

                By the way, happy birthday 😄
                better late than never...

                      thanks jenujacob...but it doesn't really work as described above.
                      It only let's you draw boxes.
                      I would like to be able to click-select edges of modeled objects so those can get chamfered.

                        I cant even get it to work, when i download it its just the .rbs file right? Where do i put that... I thought the plugins were .rb not rbs?

                          .rbs seems to be a compiled version of the plugin. This is how they keep the inner workings of the programs secure (read as $$$ making). I, for one, would like to see how they did it but i don't think it was that hard.
