@jwr.rom, thank you for the example.
I think I see what the problem is. In my example above I had only edges for SketchUp to deal with, not 100% like what you work with.
In your example SketchUp needs to combine '“tangent” with one edge and one last segment of an arc.
Split of the last segment of your arc by drawing a temporary edge from the last but one endpoint.
Then explode that separate last endpoint (which is still an arc). now you have two edges running to a mutual endpoint and the operation ill work on sharp edges.
Then delete that temporarily drawn edge.
So in short, the problem isn’t (sharp) angles. The problem is trying to draw tangent to an edge and a segment of an arc.
You can also extend a line from the next to last point of the arc past the intersection, double click to create the fillet, and delete the excess geometry by hand. Your method automatically deletes unwanted geometry which is more efficient.
I can do two corners at once. But then there are also the extra steps to explode these separated “one segment” arcs. I’ll have to check your method to see if that explodes the last arc segment instantly. That would be more/equally efficient for rounding just one corner at a time.
That’s for sure! All this works properly with my MacBook/SU2023 setup as well. Top!
I can’t really estimate how this will affect the rest of the design, but with the ‘Explode Curve’ function, I can very quickly create a segment of the arc, and then use the ‘double-click method’ to create a rounding. The result in terms of rounding is the same.
Now that my problem is solved, only one issue remains.
The jamming of the 2D Tools extension. Do you guys have any suggestions on how I should address this? Outside of this post, for example, contact TIG directly?
This part is crusial. It automatically explodes the last segment into an edge
Extending the arc past the intersection drawing from the last endpoint doesn’t explode the last segment.
