When creating complicated images where I would like to animate components I find I need the body prior to component and the separation is not easy as single lines bond and upon delete more than just the line I wish to delete gets deleted. [parallel%20example]

“What language are you talking about? You can apply SketchUp as is or with the help of some already written plugins. That’s what most of us do.” I wrote in feature requests due to not having been advised about plugins. I am pleased that there has been interest in this thread, but I was expecting t…

The point is that nobody has been able to understand what you are describing. So it can’t be made into a feature as it’s incomprehensible.

Thank you box your input is very helpful. The features i require are: Parallel lines - perpendicular to surface. Elevated curve that maintain 2d curve perspective. Curved area fill. Geometry matching curvitude. Plane convex and concave variable would be an added bonus of elevated curve algorit…

In truth a few of you could just browse until another bandwagon presents itself for you to jump on.

So, basically you need a thread? [image] 3D Printing Screw Threads 3D Printing There are many ways to make screw threads in SketchUp. Here is one more using the Spirix plugin … One of the aspects of SketchUp that makes circular objects such an issue in 3D printing is the…

Thank you Mike that is useful to the variable output helix propulsion featured earlier but is not related to the feature requests. For concentric perpendicular parallel surface lines line follow is the option but this planar orientation is an issue even with that. Think of where a parallel helix w…

If I was attempting to make the curve elevation feature, I would imagine it to take a few years on mine craft to plot enough curves to create a subroutine eventually from the plots.

When using push to create cylinder the program does not plot centre line right through as far as I am aware this would be where i would attempt to get perpendiculation from surface radially. This is how I would align the root curve to surface, previously mentioned, prior to extending each root curve…

I have not found a mock mill that i can plot rotation speed over distance yet. But that would make all our understanding easier for blade surface. This equivalent to deflate.
