I give this plugin 4 out 5 stars.īe sure to be logged into SketchUcation in order to download the file. Overall, The Bezier Spline plugin created by Fredo6 is a… At the time of this review this plugin is free and is available at. No matter how much we try the plugin always creates curves on one single plane. The plugin has very little drawbacks, but the main thing that this plugin cannot do in our experience is to create curves on all 3 axis’. This plugin has many features and is best to experiment with them to really understand the full effect of this Plugin. Some other great features of this plugin is that you can edit curves after you use them with the “Edit” button and it even has a tool to complete curves called “Close Loop Nicely” and “Close Loop With a Line”. Some of the different tools are the “Polyline Dog-Bone Corners” and “Polyline T-Bone Corners” these tools in the palette allow you to place circles in place of corners, these two differ on the place ment of the circle. There are many more tools that work similarly. Another useful tool from the palette is the “Polyline Arc Corners” tool, it allows you to create a polyline as you wish continuously and creating a bend which is determined by placing the radius measurement in the dialogue box when first using the tool. Also allowing you to place as many points as these as needed. SketchUps Ruby API (Application Programming Interface) is one of the most powerful things about our software its enabled talented programmers to build Ruby scripts (plug-ins and extensions) that allow SketchUp to do some pretty amazing things.

The most commonly used is the “Classic Bezier Curve” tool, it allows you to place the dependent arc points outside of the arc to control the curve. Discovering the magic and wonder of FredoScale. As SketchUp does not come with a good option for this, Bezier Spline allows you to create these curves with ease by utilizing the almost 13 tools in the palette. The following illustration shows the connected splines along with the seven points.The Bezier Spline plugin created by Fredo6 on is a set of tools to create bezier curves easily. The end point of the first Bézier spline is the start point of the second Bézier spline. The following example draws a curve that consists of two connected Bézier splines. You can use the DrawBeziers method of the Graphics class to draw a sequence of connected Bézier splines. The illustration also shows the spline's convex hull, which is a polygon formed by connecting the four points with straight lines. The following illustration shows the resulting Bézier spline along with its start point, control points, and end point. Graphics.DrawBezier(&pen, p1, c1, c2, p2) Point c2(150, 150) // second control point The following example draws a Bézier spline with start point (10, 100) and end point (200, 100). A Bézier spline is defined by four points: a start point, two control points, and an end point.
