is there a way to subdivide an existing mesh so its evenly divided to be able to use sculpting brush type tools and get good results?
I'm doing an erosion control model and need to be able to massage the contours but the uneven triangulation is problematic.

what if u push/pull a little thickness in your faceme components (.1"+/-)? the faceme still works.

as it turns out the one on the right did work out much better in this instance and after flipping just a few faces it seemed almost perfect.

the one on the left however had some major issues! go figure.

looks like you're right on track. my results with round corner weren't perfect either but its easy to erase and redraw a few edges. you can even move them around a little with the move tool to line them up better. try 3 or 4 with slight rotations of the cylinders then start with the cleanest one and tweak it a bit

left one should work out cleaner than right one ...
experiment a little

after artisan-SDS

round corner seems to work well?

with PS u could quickly put one together? no?

heres one for sketchup 7

don't the sketchy physics solids "create a box" do that?

nice find! thanks
BTW did u notice the latest ios update is 666Megs?

have you tried jitter?

hey Whaat, just enjoying the new toy, Thanks.
i have however noticed the vertex tool has quirks, have you noticed this?

#1 ThomThom's tool with 24" soft select #2 artisan with 24" soft select both moving along green axis

search for curviloft

you could try profile builder.
there is also a cutting plugin, i think its called zorro. havn't tried it though

@unknownuser said:

Thom's Vertex Tools has a wider range of selection modes than Artisan's. They are similar but also slighty different. Albeit both are excellent!

agreed. i'm just dreaming or maybe hinting.

in fact i was just playing and compared to TT's vertex tools the ones in artisan are almost unusable

#1 TT tool with 24" soft select #2 artisan with 24" soft select both moving along green axis

maybe this could become part of vertex tools to make it more attractive now that artisan has added vertex tools.

could u post the .skp of the profile?
i have a feeling the roundcorner plugin may be the answer

how's it going

ahhh, i guess you'd have to scale the top back to original size after.

did you try selecting the end edges and simply rotating them?
