The complexity of the exterior wainscoting of my Wall Plugin has now exceeded the capabilities of my own home brewed “trim” function/method. At this point it would appear that my only choice is to restrict this added level of functionality within the wainscoting module to the PRO version of SketchU…

It seems to require also the Pro version (with some improved behavior and usability). Intersection algorithms as well as those algorithms in SketchUp’s solid operations are quite complex, and difficult to get right in all edge cases. Certainly it would be nice if API users could rely on what is alr…

My solid tools has been set to only work in Pro because otherwise I couldn’t host them in extension Warehouse. If you use it as a library within your own extension there is no such limitation. Actually I started coding these solid operations so they could be used in another extension because how aw…

Ok, that explains it! Let me guess :smirk:, they didn’t allow you that "Eneroth Solids Tools in Extension Warehouse is only available for SketchUp Pro." includes a link to where users can download the other version?

Not a direct link, but as they are open source this limitation an be removed.

Note that it is likely CGAL is too expensive for small commercial developers. https://doc.cgal.org/latest/Manual/preliminaries.html#licenseIssues https://geometryfactory.com/products/licenses/ Just their industrial research license is 5000 euros annually. They do not say what the commercial lice…

I spent the better part of yesterday going through the source code of Eneroth’s solid tools trying to understand it and let’s just say I’m very impressed. I’m glad I’m not the one who had to figure that one out, I’m a SketchUp padawan in comparision. The biggest plus with this code over the builti…

[image] medeek: I’ve gone ahead and pulled out just the subtraction method and required methods associated with it, reconfigured it slightly and have inserted it into the wainscoting module. I’d recommend taking the whole SolidOperations module, change the containing modules and place it in y…

As usual I ask the question before looking for the answer. It appears that Eneroth has done some excellent work in this regard already. I have my homework cut out for me.

Here is a link to the GitHub page for those interested:
