I've followed the instruction to the letter, checked directories, updated the lib file.. but can't get it to work even with the sample files.
The error message window does not appear, is there a log file located somewhere that I could send in hope of finding the problem?? Cheers

Open the Ruby Console. Then try running the tool. Report any error messages. Also check your Plugins folder's Properties > Security permissions are set to FULL for everyone in the list [Edit + Apply/OK] If not this might stop some log file etc getting written if you have limited rights... TIG
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoFredo, works like a champ here, installation was a tad tricky (no I don't remember what I did to make it work). After p[laying with this a few days, I ran across a issue. The terrain I have is a lake with several high hills around it, I would like to make the water one material and the hills another material, I tried a few gradients, found one close enough to work, but when rendering I cannot make the water reflective and the hills not. The system recognizes the material as one material. I tried freehanding the water areas, but who would of thought water wasn't level?. I know this is not really about this great plugin, but related. If anyone has any ideas please share them.

Structural Integrity is Not Just Physical...It's in the Design and Purpose Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoThanks. This is simply amazing. Fredo6 you are too kind!
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoThis is Amazing!!!! There have been tools that let you get to something approaching this result in the past but they have never been this streamlined and powerful. Thank you very much.
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoHi Fredo, I have a couple questions\requests(?), may be you could kindly help:
How would I: 1.precisely respect given contours (see the red clouds in attachment) 2.predictably set the grid direction (could toposhaper respect the current UCS, including grid origin point would start at current x=0,y=0,z=0?) 3.is there specific reason for minimum number of 20 cells? Setting (alternatively) the grid's physical dimentions would be nice too). Thank you in advance. Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
On 1), respecting contours, this is difficult and would not give smooth results. What I can maybe do is 'almost' respect 'some' contours. On 2), it would be fairly possible to set the origin and orientation of the grid. This is just GUI to add. on 3), you can already enter the cell dimensions. just type them as float (for current unit) or float + unit. architectural unique are accepted. This works in the VCB and in the dialog boxes. Otherwise, there is a minimum limit to the grid size, because otherwise you would not see anything. Fredo
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoFredo, thank you for clarification
![]() and hoping for p.2 will come true in some up-coming point update. Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoHi Fredo,
Tried using the plugin, it allows me to select and then quickly flashes the cleansing screen and generates a flat rectangular surface and contours as guidelines. I have installed as instructed. Am i missing something Regards Sridhar Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
The default view for the Cleansing is the map view. Are your original contours given an elevation? The best would be to post your model Fredo

Hi sending the screenshot thanks Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto@Sridhar
It seems you miss the button palette Fredo
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
Hi The button comes briefly and then exits out of the plugin with an output shown above, Regards Sridhar Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
Could you open the Ruby console and report of the error message you see. Your model seems complex and there may be some issues Thanks very much Fredo
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
I have the same problem. The rod of Topshaper tools also disappears to this level. No message of mistake in the Ruby console. This problem even occurs with the well stocked examples. Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto@chris87, @sridhar
Could check that if you type Return, you go to the next step (preview). You can also check the contextual menu. By the way, which OS are you on? Fredo
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
OS : PC windows 7 - sketchup 8 pro last version- No action occurs with the key return the contextual menu "toposhaper --- > generate land (square maillage)" makes the previous operation throw back only. the toposhaper toolbar doesn't reappear. excuse me for the bad english language (french user....) best regards and thank you for your superb plugins... Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
Hi TIG, sorry for the tardy reply, I didn't get a notification of the replies on this thread.. I checked permissions on the plugin folder; all full control so no issues there. Re-ran the plugin with the ruby script window open.. Same issue as before, this time using one of the sample files Screen shot attached to explain.
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto@Ewan
Have you tried reinstalling the whole Topo'toolset AND the latest LibFredo again. That might jolt it into submission... First, if you did a manual install check for misplaced files in the Plugins folder. Then reinstall the Lib, then Topo'toolset - I recommend you get/use the "SketchUcation Plugin Store" and use its 'AutoInstall' feature, this will ensure that everything is always put into the right places... TIG
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
I have exactly the same problem. All is installed correctly with the good rights and with the last libraries. No error in the ruby console !!!! Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoCan you post screenshots for Fredo to check...
Of the Plugins folder showing the installed files/subfolder and the contents of the subfolder itself... ![]() TIG
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto@chris87, @ewan
It may simply be a bug. I'll come back with some instructions in order to figure out what it could be. What would help me is that you tell me what you see in the contextual menu when you are in this screen (a screenshot is OK). Fredo
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoChris,
I mean when you are within TopoShaper and have the display of your screenshot, right click and tell me what is the contextual menu. Fredo
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & Conto
Visible on my screenshot : right click toposhaper ---- > générer terrain (maillage carré) best regards Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoI'm getting a warning when starting SU 2013
I have tried reinstalling and even checked that bootstrap_TopoShaper is present in plugin folder. Still get the error.
Re: [Plugin] TopoShaper - v1.0b - 26 Apr 13 -Terrain & ContoIs this the path?
C:\Program Files (x86)\SketchUp\SketchUp 2013\Plugins\TOPOSHAPER_Dir_10 There's a frontroom and a backroom....reverse faces
