Generating Visual Schedule (i.e. scenes with section plane) is beyond the capability of FredoBatch.

Generating the table in CSV of all doors and windows with dimensions and other properties is ceratinly feasible with FredoBatch.

It is better to use the Positioner to save position of objects.

Just select the Group from outside and launch TopoShaper.

I still don't have a rational explanation for this bug which a few users have from time to time.

Did you touch or manipulate manually the plugin files, in particular the files with .plugin extension?

Can you try with LibFredo6 v15.4e, just released.

I released v4.5a. Did you try with this version?

With Animator v4.5a, I cannot reproduce the issue, whether in interactive mode or when generation the video.

Could you be more precise and tell me where you set the speed factor.

It's home made. I wrote it long time ago, but I remember that for the interpolation, I did not find anything suitable and usable for my level of math in the literature.

For the upsampling of the triangulation, I remember that I tried the Steiner refinement approach, but it did not work well for what I wanted to do. So, I built my own method.

I was not familiar with the butterfly subdivision algorithm and still am not. Maybe it is a more conventional approach.

Main Post of the LibFredo6 thread

Precisely. The bug should be fixed in v15.4c.

You are in a thread about LibFredo6. I have no relation with Twilight Render.

I can reproduce the issue and it should be present in all versions SU2023 ad SU2025.

I need to dig deeper into the cause for this problem. In the meantime, I published a quick fix in LibFredo6 v15.4c, just published.

PS: By the way, when you have a problem with a plugin, it is not useful to reinstall Sketchup, unless you are advised too.

You can assign a positioner to a film.

Just double-click on the film name to get this dialog.

Je préfère rester anonyme. Merci encore de votre intérêt pour mes plugins.

Object positions may change for a lot of reasons, sometimes depending on when and how you save the model.

The best is to use the Positioner (4th icon in the toolbar) to record the initial position of all objects of your animation film. Then, you can recall this position at any time.

New Release: Animator - v4.5a - 22 Jul 25

@alexpacio2013 said in [Plugin Beta] Animator - v4.4a - 01 Jun 25:

Looking more carefully in the manual, I found how to create scene animations from V-Ray, but it doesn't include object animation—only the transition between scenes. It would be nice to have the transitions in batch with Fredo Animator.

If you wish to have the objects animated, then it means you rely on Animator. Neither Sketchup nor VRay can move objects between scenes.

With the latest version of Animator and VRay 6 or 7, you can use the VRay batch mode, or the VRay cloud for remote rendering.

@Berserk said in [Plugin] MatSim (Material Simulation) - v1.5b - 09 Jul 25:

The extension is very useful. But in the large model there is a limit on the number of materials supplied, and the color theme change takes a very long time (2 min.) on a modern computer (AMD 16 honest cores up to 5 GHz, 128GB RAM, RTX 2080 Super 12 GB). A model of a city with 80,000 inhabitants. Unfortunately, I can't share the model.

I released MatSim v1.5b, with up to 150 materials by simulation, instead of 50 (which I already considered a lot).

For performance, I am not sure MatSim can do better than what Sketchup would do natively by permuting materials. As for any automated process, just consider how long it would take you to do it manually...
