Here is a tube where I would like to change diameter of two selected circles (pointed by blue arrows). I want they to have the same diameter.
I tried scale tool but it always changes the distance between the circles, so when I add diameter it moves the circles outside from the center.
My goal is to change all circles diameter, especially on the left side because I have incorrect diameter of the center pipe and the left pipe. So the center pipe it too slim and the left side of the pipe is too big. I would like to know some trick how to do is in a simple way - maybe it is not needed to change diameter every circle separately? I still can use TGI3D tool to change pipe’s circles.
The (circular) path has desired nr. of segments.
Then the profile (with radii with desired nr. of segments (red)) can be concentrated on.
Keep it and make the 3D object out of a copy of your profile/path setup.
I am not sure how you think to edit the profile. Not clear what is means of the red marks. I am afraid to delete the half of the object. I think it is not the preferable way I would go. The object is not made like two copies, but it is made from circle and then transformed to cylinder. Which means that I cannot to cut it into two halves. I am noting the fact, that circle is not a circle but polygon which could lead to new problem how to fit the two halves together.
Every one of the tools shown in Box’s animated GIF are native SketchUp tools. They’ve been native forever. The tool icons might look a little different but they are present in SU8.
