@dan rathbun said: @unknownuser said: Note that the result is correct is the vector length is.. The cutoff appears to be (works at or above): vec.length = 0.03162316231623162**...** inches Actually, I think the cutoff is more like the rounded value, of the square root of Sketchup's internal tolerance (0.001) ie: (0.001)**(1/2.0) >> 0.0316227766016838 [table=bg1 table1:34jvzu3e][thead:34jvzu3e][tr=:34jvzu3e][th=1:34jvzu3e]So the general rule is:[/th:34jvzu3e][/tr:34jvzu3e][/thead:34jvzu3e][tbody:34jvzu3e][tr=bg2:34jvzu3e][td=1,:34jvzu3e]If the product of the lengths of the two vectors, is less than that of Sketchup's internal tolerance (0.001"), the angle returned by angle_between is Math::PI/2 [ (Math::PI/2).radians.round= 90 deg,] instead of Math::PI [ (Math::PI).radians.round**= 180 degrees.]**[/td:34jvzu3e][/tr:34jvzu3e][/tbody:34jvzu3e][/table:34jvzu3e] viz: v1.length = 0.03162278 v2.length = 0.03162278 v1.angle_between(v2) >> 3.14159265358979 v1.angle_between(v2).radians >> 180 %(#000000)[# degrees] @unknownuser said: I would imagine that SU would normalize the vectors first before computing the angle, so that it's independent of the size. AGREED !! At first i could not imagine why the length would have anything to do with it, but then seeing how a square root is involved, they are likely using pythagorean trigonometry. @unknownuser said: And why return PI / 2 and not 0? That's funny also, PI/2 radians is 90 degrees. Perhaps they choose a known 'reference' vector (say the X-axis) and find the angle between it an v1. Then choose another 'reference' vector 90 degrees from the first (the Y-axis), and compute the angle between it and v2. If there's a bug in there (say half of the algorithm craps out,) that may be why you wind up with 90. now your inline fix, in code is: v1.normalize.angle_between(v2.normalize) or v1.normalize.angle_between([array].normalize)

@unknownuser said: The others [warnings] with LibTraductor are inevitable, because, for compatibility reasons, I load twice LibTraductor code (the old file LibTraductor.rb for JoinPushPull and then the one from LibFredo6). When you next update the LibFredo6.. you can suppress the warnings when you know that your about to redefine old methods. Save $VERBOSE to a reference, then set $VERBOSE to nil (silent mode,) when done overriding methods, reset $VERBOSE back to what it was. MAKE SURE YOU SET IT BACK !! (or some peeps may get angry.)

CurviShear indirmek istiyorum ama olmuyor. Yardımcı olabilir misiniz?

This is a good idea, Fredo, although I would agree with Thom on the Download button. Also, I could imagine to place the downloadable plugin at the top of the posts as very often new members spend some time to figure out what to download and where to find it.

@RASKL Please run the Window > Libfredo Settings > Fredo6 Plugins Information for Sketchucation Support menu command in SketchUp and copy/paste the output into your reply.

Est ce que l'on peut faire des plans bissecteurs avec et outil? autrement dit, peut on créer un plan (ou rectangle) qui coupe de manière égal l'angle créer par l'intersection de deux plans.

how to draw those shapes along the path?

I have nothing to add but a humble pile of warm, clean compostable thanks to all afflicted action figures who figured this out and fixed it.

Ahhh. Thank you! In parametric applications I am accustomed to detecting and altering vector direction. How do you detect curve direction in SkUp?? I didn't even know it mattered until yesterday! Anyway -- many many thanks for posting this little gem.

Here's my 2 cents strictly as a user. I tend to agree with TIG's view. But I think there may always be some overlap, because strict division of function or content requires discipline, and in the heat of the moment to express an issue, maybe the discipline takes back burner. I do peruse the dialogue in Developer's Forum when I see it in New Posts. I even scroll through the coding when it is displayed, in a vague hope that I can make sense out of the language conventions, or simply to marvel at how bizarre and foreign it is to conversational language.

Sympa pour la nébuleuse francophone!

Normalement il conserve le formatage, Par sécurité, j'extrais avec les images et apres je les remplace par celles extraites par Some PDF Image Extractr Et je me demande si c'est réellement nécessaire!!

Thank you Fredo!!! Another great tool!!! A question... I always see different and separate tools for round corners in 2D and round corners in 3D. Can be possible a single all-purpose round corner plugin? For example your RoundCorner plugin... if you try to round lines or faces (In 2D) it says invalid. Can your RoundCorner plugin incorporate your polyline arc corners and polyline chamfer for these invalid cases? It´s difficult to me to explain this in english but the idea would be that if you take the orange icon and you try to round lines or faces (In 2D) will make a fillet (polyline arc corners) and if you take the green one and you take a 2d face will make a chamfer.

@fredo6 said: @fredo6 said: @rv1974 said: Many years I wanted to ask.. On some stage Ghostcomp puts ALL 'real' instances at file's origin point. Is it a bug or a feature? The problem with those instances is if you'd delete them (at origin point) and run purge plugin there's no way to swap from ghost representation to 'real'. I'll see what I can do to force a conversion to real before a Purge. EDIT: I am not able to reproduce your problem. Could you elaborate. Thanks I Think I managed to catch the bug: Staying in Scene1: Enter context, select desired component (donut) make a ghost, exit context. Go to Scene 2. Ghost dummy plus original donut geometry created at 0,0,0. The file PM'd. [image: RI6V_GIF.gif]

attempted to purchase using my only payment method i dont (AND WILL NOT USE PAYPAL) your system advises my VALID credit card cannot be used, please advise how i can make a purchase (and no i dont know anyone with paypal)

Hmm...it worked fine for me with SU 7.1. Are you on a Mac?

@fredo6 said: @ahmed0007 said: Follow mode not working any solution? Can you clarify and explain what is the problem. Follow option works fine for me. Fredo hello! fredo6 can you see my above response?

Fredo, did the pic come?? i'll re-attach. freeScale. bottom box after TopMenu your delightful scripts, when I can download them (a problem with this site), and get them in the right place (my fault) are fantastic to use on the Mac, my comment was more about if any of the earlier ones had been absorbed into FreeScale or Pushpull, or outdated by SU7, etc.. then I will not try to find them now. cheers john [image: oPgQ_monpm2.jpg]

I try to install the BZ_Arc_plugin. I've download the ruby and dropped it into the BZ_Dir_12 folder. It works . But it is impossible to download the icon-files. In the attachment they are light grey and don't react. What am I doing wrong ??? Hans
