thanks for the input, i have removed it and reloaded it a couple of times it seamed to clash with onion dome which also did not work removing onion dome and reinstalling roof ----------- now works

thankyou

hipped does not seem to work in SU2015 is this correct for anyone else????

ok this is going to be viewed as a dumb question

how do you know if you have downloaded and installed SU8-M2

there is nothing on the website saying this is M2 and there is nothing in the version record to say M2

Is version 8.0.11752 what you are all raving on about, so far i cannot see anything new or different

have i got the right one?

some pdf tutorials attached

FeSk demo arch[1].pdf

FeSk demo conoid[1].pdf

FeSk demo conoids[1].pdf

FeSk demo hypar[1].pdf

it seems that the Farrari Architecture people are next to impossible to contact and tall to so i am attaching the file here.

it seems to be a little easer to use then soap bubble and skin

cheers

FerrariSketchV1.1.zip

not sure if anyone else has found this one

it is a plugin for tensile and menbrane structures, and can be downloaded form this site after you go through the mundain task of regersering and waiting for you password to be confirmed

ferrari-architecture.com

(www.ferrari-architecture.com)

it does have a good tutoral for each of the tools and some examples to work with

still to early for a review but it is not bad so far

thanks for the clarification chuck

enjoy the wave's

i have installed the latest uptate and tested it on the tangent at vertex skp and the tent1 skp
in chosing on of the tangent at vertex outlines and the skinning command the programe runs and then flashes between thick line to thin line with the green tick floating after 2 hrs it said it was done in 2 second and showed no meshing i tryed this on all shapes in the file and no luck in getting a skin,

what might the problem be here.

in testing it in the tent1 skp i se no change in the result from the previous version and get a better result in using tigs rail plug in.

not sure if it is just me or has anyone else had a similar result

regards

a question i have , as you have loaded so many of the tools do you find that some off them do not function ie the dome in the scf drawtools bar, or the stairmaker 062.rb being canceled out by the scf archi tool bar or the skins from db tools only 2 show up out of the 4 and do not function.

if you or anyone else out there has a solution please let me know

thanks

is it posible to get these 2d tools working in the layout portion of sketchup?

they would be a great help when preparing documentation drawings

regards

grim

danial

fredo

thanks for the pointers, they work... there seems to be a lot more to using this tool than i realise, i am getting the hang of it slowly

fredo and charly

this tool is fantastic, however after reviewing the examples posted by charly i was eager to try them out for myself but when it came time to try step 3 if found that the curviloft menue did not display the same information nor did the black backround profile menu appear i have sinced removed all rubies and reloaded only the latest from you posting to see if i had installed it incorrectly however i get the same responce

can you enlighten me as to the problem or is there somthing i am over looking

thanks

thank Gaieus

it is now working the way i need it to

chris
the video shows a great tool and i have put it to the test, i build a chain link and made it a component, however when i apply the plug in it spaces the component far apart and rotates it in odd positions a can not seem to imitate the steps you show in the tutorial video is there a problem with this script?

G'day all
I have been experementing with SU and layout but i can not seem to see the watermark i have used in my SU model in layout.
can anyone tell me where i may be going wrong

many thanks
