      Steuart,

      I suggest you install the latest version of LibFredo6 (v8.1d) and tell me if you get crashes any longer. I fixed some problems of random bugsplats for Curviloft, and it might well be the same origin as for RoundCorner.

      By curiosity,

      1. do you have Souvenir also installed?
      2. Does the crash happens when you launch RoundCorner right after you save the model

      Thanks

      Hi Fredo,
      Update.

      Just updated the libFredo6 to 8.1d (I had not realised there were variations of the 8.1), and restarted the computer, but unfortunately it has not helped as I have just crashed again.
      Recap:
      No Souvenir installed.
      It does not happen if I have had a crash and relaunch SU and straight away start using RoundCorner. On this occasion i was using an existing drawing and worked for about 20/30 mins, then clicked on round corner and it instantly crashed. If I save first then click on Round Corner it is less likely to crash.
      I have still not used Curviloft and don't know if that would cause the same problem. I dont have any other forms of rendering packages and the only plugins I have are yours and the Tremble ones listed above.
      A mystery!
      Thanks

      Hi Fredo,
      Thanks for your reply.
      I dont have souvenir.
      If SU crashed and then I re-launched it Round Corner usually worked fine.
      Last few days I have not had a crash, but I have been regularly saving before trying round corner.

      I have LibFredo6 8.1, but will try re-installing it, and update you.

      Thanks

      often when I use Round Corner it crashes Sketchup. If I am working and then click on round corner it almost always crashes. Then when I re-open SU and try using Round Corner it works fine. I have the same problem in SU17 and SU18. I am using a mac on the latest MacOS. (it has been happening for a long time in various versions of MacOS) Any solution to this? The only solution i have found is to close SU and reopen it, which is very frustrating if I am doing a lot of Round Corner. Thanks

      Actually, first time I hear about these crashes from users, and also that this has happened before.

      I would suggest you give the list of the other plugins you run in your environment, as some are known to be in conflict with RoundCorner (and other plugins).

      Thanks

      Hi Fredo, (sorry - did not reply directly to your first reply - just learning the system) Thanks for fast reply. I have: Advanced Camera Tools, Dynamic Components, Sandbox, Trimble Connect (no idea what any of those do), plus your LibFredo6, Curviloft (looks great - only downloaded it yesterday, not tried it out yet), Round Corner. I used to have pipe along, which I think caused similar issues, but have not installed that in SU18. I am running the latest version of everything and Mac OS10.13.3 on a 2013 MacBook pro retina.
      (love the plugin by the way!)
      Thanks

      Hi Fredo,

      Absolutely amazing plugin, I am new to Sketchup and am busy playing with some designs to see if it is worth buying a 3d printer, no point in getting a printer if I cannot create designs to print. This plugin works perfectly for external corners but I cannot seem to get this to work on internal shapes. For example I have cube with a hole through it and would like the edge of the hole rounded. When I use this tool it just erases the hole completely. Is this normal behavior or am I being stupid?

      Thank you for all this work you have put in your tool

      Nick

      Hi Nick, I have printed a number of things from sketchup drawings and it works very well. Good luck! (and I am far from being an expert!!) Steuart

      Hi Tig,
      I simply put them into the plugins folder - the same as i have put several other plugins (see list below - I have removed the lines2tubes and the other similar plugin that was crashing the program) with no problems (hard disk/library/application support/google sketchup 8/sketchup/plugins

    • RE: [Plugin] Lines to tubes

      Hi Didier and all.
      I have just installed the Lines2tubes plug in. Initially I tried to use it and it crashed (of course before I had saved anything - auto save does not seem to work unless you have done at least an initial save). Then each time I tried to re:launch SU it would instantly crash. I also tried TubeAlongPath and pretty much the same thing happens. In each case it was fine once I had remeoved the plug in. Anyone any ideas? I am using a Macbook pro, with 10.5 and SU 8. I would love to be able to use the program as it would save a huge amount of time.

      Thanks
