which I still don't understand:

I don't think Clothworks is compatible with out My Licenses checker yet. I'll poke Anton and see if he will update it so it is included. But Fredo's stuff and my Pie for SketchUp are.

So if you purchase and validate a license for any of Fredo's stuff it will show up.

... what I purchased does not show up and I can't purchase any new, because I don#t use paypal
Thanks anyway.

all is blank. I am logged in.

That means you have no licenses validated for you togo sketchucation account.

which I still don't understand:

Clothworks using the same licensing system as Fredo. What do you see if you visit...
https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php
...can you see all license files you purchased including Clothworks?

I see the headline: "Your Licenses:" underneath: "if you purchased you license just now ..." and the table: "ID / PlugIn / License Type / Duration ..." and all is blank. I am logged in.

Thank you for the explanation!

You can't at the moment

what a pity, will there be a way some time later?

@rich o brien said:

S4U has nothing to do with our licensing system. Any issues with those plugins should be dealt with through S4U

ok, but what about ClothWorks? This is not listed either?

@rich o brien said:

Be more efficient releasing seats. Each license an author typically allows 3 seats. Users can easily release and validate seats on their end.

what is a seat? And how can that avoid license problems?
I am working on two computers – one in my office and one when I am traveling. Both have the identical installation of plugins. The plugins are licensensed on either of them.

Thank you.

hello,

1. how can I purchase Fredo Corner without PayPal?

2. I have various licenses (S4U, ClothWorks ...) but they are not listed here?
   Why is that?

3. unfortunately I have more often problems with licenses that forget me and then always wrote by eMail, sent the proof of purchase etc. to activate the license again. But that unfortunately sometimes took a few days and I would like to avoid that. What can I do there?

Thanks!

Can someone please help me regarding ClothWorks urgently?
Thanks a lot!

... someone heard me - 1000 thanks!

ClothWorks License is now active again.
And in the Menue/sketchUcation: Global status of plugins under SCF License it is listed.

Only here - https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php - still is no license listed – why?

Hi,
I am in the final stages of a project and now ClothWorks no longer recognizes my license.
I have deleted all AMS documents in the ~Library/ApplicationSupport/SketchUp 2020/ SketchUp/Plugins folder, reloaded and reinstalled ClothWorks, but unfortunately to no avail.
The error message is: msg_validation_error
Request to Sketchucation = ERROR_A0C

Also under the link posted in #1 by fredo6: "Your Licenses" not a single one of my licenses is listed. I have purchased several extensions.

Can someone please help me regarding ClothWorks urgently?
Thanks a lot!

thank you, yes i will build some and maybe i will get closer to that ...

good idea!
I compressed the height of the spiral by 80% after every half turn, so that it also becomes flatter and flatter towards the top. Is that what you meant?
But something is still wrong. What could it be? Maybe the way is correct, only the ratios of size and height of the spiral and start and end size of the circle are not yet right? I keep on trying.

aha, yes thanks, that is going in the right direction, great. I can change the radius of the spiral. And with Curvy Loft i can put a shell over it.
However, I can only specify the overall height of the spiral - I can't decrease the height from one round to the next.
Or how could that be possible?

Hello,
I'm not getting anywhere trying to build a twisted snail shell.
It should be constructed like the example below.

So far my attempts were:

1. to build a helix with 3 or 4 turns and a tube with Follow me. But with the Helix Tool the spiral remains uniform and of course the tube cannot be reduced step by step.
2. With Helix-along-Curve I can successively reduce the spiral, but then how do I get a reducing sheath?

Is there a tool to place circles on the helix that would decrease with each copy and then cover them with a skin afterwards? Could that be a way?

Many thanks for tips.

ok, thanks. I have a workaround for now.

the export to STL seems to have changed in version 2021:

If you only want to export one group as STL, then it is no longer enough to just select the solid group, the corresponding tag must also be activated, otherwise nothing will be exported, which is pretty confusing if nothing happens.
In version 2020 any tag could be active and the selected group was simply exported, no matter on which tag is located.
In version 2021 I now cannot export two solid groups which are on different tags any more.
Is there any way to handle this, without changing the tags of each selected group just for the export?

(not easy to explain - I filmed this, but the size is 80mb?)

Hi Anton,
does ClothWorks work with SU 2021? (MacOS10.14)
I just upgraded to SU2021 and receive error messages only regarding ClothWorks (files in plugins are missing and others require load or register etc.).

1. I dragged&dropped all ams_ClothWorks plugins from the 2020 folder to the 2021 folder - error messages on startup
2. deleted all ams_ClothWorks files and fresh installed from sketchUcation Extension Store - restart - error message as above
   The procedure described in your license manual does not work, because the extension is not loaded on startup.
   I purchased a license (see post No. 3)
   Can you please help me? Thanks*togo

I also purchased the extension clothWorks and have not received a license file so far. I did check the spam folders and send an email to sketchUcation, but also no reply.
What else can I do?
Thanks, togo
