I updated Java and the plugin works perfectly

Thank you for your help

Well it works for us, so something is adrift with your Java set up...
Do you have the latest Java version installed on your computer ?
Mine is 8.191 ??
Are JAR files clearly set to be run in Java, rather that hijacked by some decompression software [the usual culprit] ??

I just checked. I have version 7.0.210 of Java. I'll update it and see how I fare.

Many thanks TIG.

Thank you for checking the file.

My problem is that I'm not able to get any results due the java error.

Hi,

I just downloaded and installed the SKMTools to Sketchup 2016 so that I could make sketchup object from images.

The first problem I had was WinRar launching every time I tried Imagetrimmer. I read many posts about this problem and have corrected the file association issue.

Now Imagetrimmer simply doesn't work. I window saying "A java exception has occured" pops up ans Sketchup freezes and hangs forever.

I have checked the image. As far as I can tell it's how it should be. I have attached it here if anyone wants to check it.

I hope someone can help.

Thanks.

Hi,

I just installed this on Sketchup 2016. It worked well and was super-useful when I had Sketchup 8, but is not working on 2016. There are no notes I can find saying which versions this plugin is compatible with. Am I missing something?

Thanks.

Just for be sure : your dxf was made directly from SketchUP or from another program ?

Hi pilou,

Yes, it was exported from SU.

Looks good pilou.

I finally got it done using TrueBend.

Thanks.

Hi pilou,

Rail and profile DXF file uploaded.

Thanks

rail+profile.zip

Hi again,

Upon closer inspection, although the solidness is good and the profile alignment is good along all of the "straight" section of the rail, using Curviloft, the profile does twist on the shaped part of the rail. Back to TrueBend and solid-fixing. Scaling up x1000 reduced the errors to only 3 ... phew.

Just thought you might like to know.

And the winner is ... Curviloft

Excellent solution pilou. Thank you v much. The perfect shape and a perfect solid with no complex intersections to fix.

Should fit snuggly against this lovely little Edwardian engagement ring.

Thanks again, everyone.
