![]() ![]() At the time of this review this plugin is free and is available at. Overall, the Shape Bender plugin created by Chris Fullmer is a very useful tool to have and really comes in handy. See below for a great tutorial on how to make a curved road along an incline and go to there are a couple more videos that have great step by step tutorials. But if you create a little opening (like we did in the image above) then it will work. Another limitation is that this only works on a open curve, it cannot be curved, thus a complete circle will not work. The line actually has be created on the red axis. And we found that if you create the line on lets say the green axis and then rotate it to the red, it will not work. The plugin works well but it is very important to note that the object to be fitted should be a group or component and the line describing the objects length should be on the RED axis. Sometimes you will need to play with the location of the object by pressing the up and down arrows. Here are some of the most useful ones, available for free download. And you have control of flipping the object either inside or outside the path area. can be quite helpful with complicated and large scale models. The tool allows you to specify what area to be fit along a path and the shape bender plugin automatically fits the object along the path. Download an extension to streamline, advance, and customize your SketchUp workflow. This tool really allows you to take SketchUp one step further allowing you to create curved objects with specific accuracy, which many tools of this kind lack. Each extension addresses a specific industry workflow or pain point. ![]() ![]() The Shape Bender plugin created by Chris Fullmer on is a fantastic tool to warp objects along curved paths. ![]()
