@ikehegwus23 said: Hello Fredo, I'm using Vray Next 4.20 on Sketchup 2019 with Animator with Animator v3.6a on a LibFredo6 v12.5a. I have an issue rendering an animation with your animator plugins (which I believe are the latest versions at the moment) the rendering always stops at 20-30%...ALWAYS. Its been really confusing because it renders a normal box well with Vray but when I want to render my project which is like 6mb in size or less it freezes at that 20% range. Please what could be the issue? PS I had the same problem on Vray 4.1 also. Looking forward to your reply. Cheers Rendering of long animation has always been a problem with VRay, because it requires a lot of resources. What is average time to generate a frame when rendered by VRay?

@fredo6 could "smooth curve" from the attached video be implemented? https://youtu.be/iqz2EwF16-w?si=x4gxUOCjS2uR9VOg&t=151 "project to scene" script at 1:59 is also fabulous

Hello. The Legacy Round Corner file is not the <2017 but a <2016 (=<2015) as its not working with my 2016 and presents me the message that this is a legacy Roundcorner suitable only for versions prior to 2016 Can we have the downloadable file replaced by the actual file compatible up to 2016? Thank you

I think it's worth pointing out in the plugin description that since it uses sun for shading, it has a negative impact on SketchUp's performance. While it shouldn't be problematic with small models, the heavy ones will lag badly. But anyway, this setup can often be really helpful so thank you

Yes, thanks, I saw that. As I said above. I will have to re-download it and make sure I get the 2022 Pro this time.

@Daantje Possibly, you can use ThruPaint, which includes the same color fans but also displays the color names. [image: 1744213987132-7babf36a-b906-4ac9-8038-4d9a623fa18e-image.png]

@Grice It's not gone. The link doesn't work, because a while ago Fredo merged many of his smaller extensions into FredoTools. This includes dozens of useful tools... You can install that set from the PluginStore via a downloaded RBZ https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=FredoTools Or use the SketchUcation ExtensionStore³ tool to install it, without the RBZ step...

In addition, lord of toolbar cannot be used normally in version 2026, and it will disappear after adding a custom toolbar and restarting.

I support that idea, in an attempt to make commands fit in better. For example, we generally see option (alt) used where a duplication is performed. To switch that to command is less intuitive therefore.

Fredo, Thank You for all your efforts on YouTube. They make leaning your outstanding plugins much easier.

@talegend said in [Plugin][$] FredoCorner - v2.7a - 31 Mar 24: license for round corner doesn't have FredoCorner word and that's why I can't see it Round Corner and FredoCorner are two different extensions and each requires a different license. Which one did you actually purchase the license for? Install that one.

@ahmed0007 said: Thanks for Sharing it select all faces by ignoring hidden/smooth edges in su2017 its normal? Yes, this is the default behavior. You can of course pre-select the faces you wish to triangulate before launching Face triangulator. Note that I could enable a button palette to give the choice of selection mode, as I do for JointPushPull. But some users or commentators say that palettes make the GUI cluttered. So the only thing I can do is to make the selection mode "single Face" when Hidden Geometry is on, otherwise by Surface. Fredo

I suggest you redo a clean installation of LibFredo6. Obviously, your update did go wrong somewhere. If you post a capture of your Sketchup Plugins directory, I think I could tell you what's wrong. Fredo

I recall an inconsistency based on the cameras relationship to the axis... not sure if this is the same as it was many years ago... my 'memory' tells me I avoided this by moving geometry and camera so you never crossed the axis... it seemed that if any camera position included a negative, SU makes a decision whether to move clock or anti clockwise... and it's not always the same decision... does that make any sense? john

@fredo6 said: @panixia said: I have a little request, if possible/not too hard: can you add an option to preserve/create quads? Curviloft and Trupaint already support it and can be integrated really well in a quad/sub-d workflow.. Having JPP with same capability would be a dream! I think there is the option, but for Normal PushPull. Not sure it makes sense for the other tools. Fredo I'll try to put togheter a simple example to show you why i think that could make sense both with NPP and regular JPP. edit: I noticed this tread is about outdated version, so I posted my example here https://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=54771&p=626639#p626639
