Hi Rich,

Thanks for your tip. But here I am a bit old fashioned. I prefer here a Word table, printed and filed.

Hi,

Thank you very much Jim and all responded to.

Hi,

Does the surface have to be a group or individual faces?

You can select individual faces in the model space or individual faces in the context of a group (but not the entire group itself)

Please post here what the Ruby console says when using the tool.
Regards,

Cool. It is great when you have time to do stuff just for its own sake. This image looks awesome.

Hi Pete and Crankston,

Thanks for your kind comments. Yes, it is often the case that you think the build should be relatively easy. The difficulties will only be visible later because you have considered but not all.

Charly

Great!
As you can see from the resultant images making a compliant staircase with tapered treads etc is far from easy... 😄
As you say, you can now take the plan image, import it as an Image and Scale it [TapeMeasure tool] to the correct size; then use it as a basis for making the stairs...Capture.PNG

Hi Watkins,

thanks for these links. Could be a cylindrical projection. If anyone is interested, the model(12MB) can be downloaded at:

Hi Csaba, Rich and TIG,

I thank you all for the quick reply. Sometimes you do not see the forest because the trees. I feel like a beginner.

I have tried different techniques to construct an aseptic T-piece as it is used in pharmaceutical pipelines. This example is done by Fredos Tool on Surfaces and EEbyRails.

I noticed that you still have folders for old versions of my plugins (for instance you have FREDOSCALE_Dir_20 and FREDOSCALE_Dir_21, same for LIBFREDO6_Dir, TOS_Dir, ...).

Thanks Fredo for the hint. I had overlooked.

Charly

Those look great. I am partial to the second one, its more industrial.

On my PC, if I last had version 7.1 open and try to open a V8 file, I get that message. If I last had V8 open, I don't get it. It's worked this way since I installed version 4 alongside version 3.

Hi Csaba,

I must confess that not all of the individual models are my own, Most of them I have downloaded from the Google Warehouse. The idea with the scenes came to me later. If I build a model, I consider it very much how it should be structured. But thank you again for your trouble. It is always a valuable experience.

Charly

It's not so bad, but for the moment not perfect 😉
In these French translations above, it's understandable but like me and my very basic English 💚

Hi,
Just tested it with SU 7.1, it works OK. Not tested with SU8, since I'm waiting the french version of it...
BUT if your image size is 602, the resulting mesh will be made of 6026022 triangles= 724808 faces !
Watch the status bar to check what it is doing, the redraw process can be (very) long...

Thanks Csaba,

there is probably no other way.

Charly

Ah, Dave, so you did ... 😳
