    • RE: Need help trying to wrap a component around a cylinder

      Jeff,

      I opened your file and tried doing a side by side test and it worked.
      I then tried it back in my model and it turned out like this (also, it's not giving me the 'start' and 'end' notifications when selecting the straight line that appear when working in your model)
      Not sure what the heck I'm doing wrong.

    • RE: Need help trying to wrap a component around a cylinder

      Jeff,

      I'm just learning all these new plugins.
      Is there anyway you can provide a quick step by step on this? What you did looks perfect.
      I'm having troubles with it. Here's where I'm at......
      I can't figure out where to put the straight line so that the text lays over the cylinder.

    • Need help trying to wrap a component around a cylinder

      Help,

      I'm trying to wrap a component (in this case it's text) around this half cylinder. I then need to intersect the faces so I can remove parts of the text.
      I'm making a custom wall sconce and want the text to be negative (so the light shows through)

      Does anyone know of any techniques/plugins that can accomplish this??

      Any help, tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated!

    • RE: [Plugin Library] LibFredo6 - v15.4d - 14 Aug 25

      Help.....I've tried numerous times to install LibFredo6 with no success. I've followed the instructions. I can see the folder and .rb file in my plugins folder but I can find nothing in the windows setting of SU. I've also attempted to install FredoScale and RoundCorner with no luck at all.

      I'm running SU 8 on a Mac.

      I'm new to the forum and am just delving into the world of plugins (which I am VERY excited about).
      I appreciate any help. I know it's probably just one little thing I'm doing wrong.

      Thanks,
      HT

    • Plugins and extensions for a newbie!

      Hey all! So after years of using SketchUp I'm finally ready to start making use of the abundance of glorious plugins/extensions etc that have been developed over the years!!! (I know....slacker)
      I'm wondering if any one has a good catalogue of essential plugins/ a valuable website to guide me through the process and any other helpful knowledge. I use SketchUp mainly for interior design but I also build furniture with it.

      Any tips, tricks, referrals etc would be MORE than appreciated.
      Thanks a ton and I'm looking forward to participating on these boards and learning a ton of cool new stuff.

      Best,
      HT
