Regular room plugin

Post by dorin »

Regular room version 1.0
In the series of YAUP another useless plugin under a motto:
"Sometimes even simple things are hard to do."
With a little CAD could be more easy.
It could be found under Tools and on tool bar as a pentagon icon.
This plugin generate a regular room between 3 to 30 sides.
You have to input the sides number, the length of the side and the room center position.
It look like this:

Also on Source Forge.

This will make creating my dodecagon shapes a lot easier. Until now I used dodecagon shapes created in Blender as parts for furniture or buildings. In Blender you can set the number of sides for a cylinder similar to your room plugin. This especially makes it easier for me when I need walls/rooms with a specific lenght. YAUsefulP.
Thank you Dorin.

Thanks a lot Dorin, one more step to the realization of furniture and objects with SH3D... I'm using Sketchup less and less and I'm now making a lot of things directly in SH3D!

Could you up the max # sides to 32? (2,4,8,16,32)
By-the-way, why not 64 or 128?

Thank you!

Thank you, I think that is enough [:))] With 300 sides it might even be smoother than a cylinder.

(The plugin manager seems to have a little bug regression: the "Plugin installed ...Ok" close window hides behind the main window again.)
