[Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)[Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)Time for an update of Zorro. I think this release is much more polished than the first one. Plus, you now finally have the ability to render section cut views.
New Features: -made cuts work with parallel projection views -added slice model at section plane (right click on a section plane for context menu) -added nested cuts using CTRL modifier -improved precision of cuts Somes notes on this release: - It is recommended to use 'Slice model at Section' on a backup of your SKP file. It is a destructive process. - Cutting through nested components results in creation of many unique components - Some code was used with permission from TIG's SectionCutFace script to create a cutting plane from a section plane. Thanks! - Script should work for older versions of SU and also on Mac systems I am calling this a beta version so please post any bugs or requests in this thread. Enjoy! EDIT: Updated version now attached which should fix the problems that have been reported. Also added tutorial. Whaat Get the latest RBZ version from the SCF PluginStore...

Re: [Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)Seems that I was the first to download - willplay and give feedback as much as possible. Thanks Dale for this major upgrade; I'm especially interested in this section cut effect (I love TIG's script as well).

MALAISE ![]() Just a try The former version worked perfectly ( SU V6 and V7 ). Using Zorro2 when trying to cut a simple box even a group, the white feather is gluing to the cut line, and nothing happens. back to Zorro.rb (1), all work perfectly. I hope it's help ![]() Last edited by MALAISE on Sun Jan 25, 2009 11:04 am, edited 1 time in total.

Re: [Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)
Can you post the SKP file? Are you sure you are in group-edit mode when you are doing the cut?
Re: [Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)Seems works not with the orthogonal view (parallel projection)!
![]() Works fine with normal view and 2 points perspective ![]() Request : a little tut video! ![]() Question: why not name the new Zorro file: zorro2.rb ?
Re: [Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)Dear Dale,
I too would like to see a video tutorial, or a .pdf help file explaining the various options. Kind regards, Bob Re: [Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)I guess I created a small bug just before I released the plugin that I did not release was there. i will post a fixed version later today. Sorry! I will also try to create a tutorial later today if I have time. For those of you who do not want to wait, just change line 266 to read:
I belive this will fix the problem but I don't have time to fully test right now.
