PATTERNS ON COMPLEX Faces with Flowify for SketchUp

[@Thesketchupessentials]

FIRST! Hope you guys are having a great day!

[@kliroipalmero5831]

is flowify can be use in a soap bubble skin face?

[@aamirkaiser]

If the face is complex and dense, flowify doesn't seem to be working at all, the impose grid part itself isn't functioning.....

[@mrtwarrobots]

Could you show me how to fix the errors disappearing 'start and end' when using plugin SHAPE BENDER. OMG

[@lahattv618]

thanks sir. keep safe always.

[@mgtazco]

Please please have a camera on your keyboard would he great

[@francescoscarpantoni]

I don't use sketchup often...actually seldom... and when I do these kind of video help me a lot. I can't say thank you enough for sharing this knowledge.

[@abejin8446]

Great Job! I am a self taught artist and I also decided to share my own tutorials because I know how important they are to people who are just learning how to fiddle with sketch up. You can do it guys! Thank you for sharing.

hey. my flowify impose grid is not working. idk I have grouped everything perfectly but still its not showing grid. what's the solution ? kindly help

[@jefflee4419]

Hi Justin, I have learn"flowify“ plugin and try it, but many times still not suggest, the "impose grid" also not function, may I know why like that?

[@apoorvakulshrestha1445]

Hi Justin, Thanks a lot for your tutorials. I followed as per your instructions. To check the grouping right, I did impose grid from flowify extension. I could see grids. However, after placing the imprint pattern on the plane, neither do I get any error message and the command also doesnt do anything. On clicking somewhere else, it scales up the model. I want cut patterns on a curved wall made using 2 point arc. Pls help!!

[@ahmadistifaq2025]

why when i clicked the flowify,the message popped up on my sketchup saying "geometry group must contain raw faces" ?

[@mgtazco]

Great great video not because of the extension but because of How to maneuver sketch up

[@include7614]

Best teacher

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Thanks!

[@homosapiens_bjj]

Hey! I imported a terrain from google maps with four (4) corners. I want to project a road in the curved surface of the terrain. But, flowify doesn't work. What do I need to do? I think it is because the terrain is not identified as a face. How can I make it a face?

[@raticn329]

Hey my face is not a curved, its actually a roof, that has complicated shape, and has many edges, i try to do it but i cant, do you know another plug in that could work?

[@d.w.1567]

Is there a way to do it the other way around? Take a curved face and convert it to a flat face?

[@kiyer667]

Is this only worked on face with four corners? I'm trying to have a different shape :(

[@Melzinhahh26]

My shape is not a retangle, but a amorphous shape that has some rounded corners and the "impose grid" is not working. What can I do? Could someone please help me?

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Flowify is designed to work with shapes with 4 corners.

[@prasadnair8990]

Hi buddy, you are amazing!! can we do the same designs on a cylindrical shape?

[@palomaromeropp631]

Hi! Is there a version or a different extension for skp 2020?

[@falgunishah8908]

why here the cutout is not happening ? I followed all your steps. still it shows the error - connection edge does not connects properly between vertices.

[@MithunKumar-oy5jd]

Thank you for all of your video tutorial it has helped me a lot 👍

[@unitedarchitecture3965]

When u try vecto presspull ther is another option what is that. where it's come from

Will this work with trapezoidz ? And rhombus ? thank you

[@fouraces3761]

hi.. can we use flowify on hemisphere faces?

[@brycejames7829]

THANKS JUSTIN, YOU LOOK NICE 💖

[@gaurikokane9963]

My grids are not getting imposed . I triple checked the groups and they are absolutely correct. What could possibly go wrong?

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Please don't leave the same comment on multiple videos. Does your target group have 4 corners?

Oh wow I did not know you could space after copying like that!

[@Thesketchupessentials]

LOL - neither did I - need to make a vid on this in the next couple weeks! :)

[@theresachua2364]

I cant run the flowify in sketchUP, after download and install, unsigned shown, dont know why? Anyone can help? Thanks

[@Serendipityxme]

Thank you always save my live!

[@Maschinengoth]

Could this be used to do it backwards? Like you have the wavy roof with holes in it, but you want to have version that has been "ironed flat" to put it into a laser cutter and then bend it for real life model?

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Interesting - you might be able to do something like that, but I'd be afraid of image distortion leading to not liking the final result...

[@tbiliselivar]

Hello, thanks for making these videos and teaching us how to use tools and plug-ins. I have a problem with my sketchup. When I put a lots of details to my object, sketchup slows down and sometimes it freezes, bot responds. I replaced my graphics card and it still does he same thing. My processor is AMD A6-3650 APU My RAM is 16.0 GB. Free space is 800 GB. V-Card is NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1650- 4 GB. My sketchup is pro 2019. What computer do you use and what hardware do you have, that your sketchup works good and it does not freeze?

[@Thesketchupessentials]

How big is your model?

[@robertamendoza6684]

Hi thank you for explaining so well, but when I do this with my own shapes and design it seems not to be working and I've checked that I have the ground organized correctly.

[@DarkMoonDroid]

XLNT! Have a great day! In other news, the link to "Joint Push/Pull" doesn't work. But I did a search and found "JointPull+" for 5-bucks. Is this the same?

[@DarkMoonDroid]

I found the "Joint Push/Pull". I don't know why it didn't turn up when I did a search for Fredo6's stuff yesterday. Anyhoo, now I got it and it worked and it looks RAD!

[@friedrichnietzsche4569]

Thank you for your videos.

[@joejohnsoncube]

Hello Justin, Followed your video it was great even though I took around 6 hours to figure it out specially the curve i created was a mess. The arc which is drawn in sketchup is 6 segments and for a 70m wall it was a rough one, but i changed it to 36 segments and it was fine. But the thing is that Im only getting horizontal division not a grid and after flowifying the entire group i get very inacurate patterns in the curved wall. Any suggestion?

[@MlleVB]

How to type the divided by?

how did you evenly space the patterns?

[@davids4610]

Hey Justin, big fan and love the tutorials. I, for the life of me can not get flowify to work. I create the geometry, I group the geometry as needed, I double check to see if a grid will be projected (and it does), but when I place raw geometry on the grid, I get an input error-not enough input. I've tried to directly draw a cube on the plane and the same results... nada.... Using a mac with SU pro 2018. Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks!

[@Thesketchupessentials]

It shouldn't be raw geometry on the grid - it should be grouped geometry

[@davids4610]

@@Thesketchupessentials You are, as they say, right! I tried everything I thought, but when I laid the geometry group on the projection plane, I wasn't selecting the geometry with the group of 3... then I tried to insert the geometry into the group of 3. Many thanks for pushing me to look at your videos again.

[@elrienschmitz5058]

Hlo Justin, thank you so much for all your effort in helping us through your tutorials. :-) They are very valuable! I have watched this specific tutorial a few times, and I have had great success in using Flowify in my models. Unfortunately, this time around, I have done everything (grouping etc.) just as you have specified, but for some or other reason, I can not get Flowify to impose a grid on my base face, hence nothing further wants to work as well. It does not give me any error message. It just does nothing... :-/ Could you perhaps please give me some advice in what I could try next? I would appreciate it a lot. Thank you!

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Maybe double check and make sure your target shape has 4 corners. It only works on shapes with 4 corners

[@elrienschmitz5058]

Hlo Justin, thank you for your quick reply, I appreciate it a lot. My target shape definitely has four corners. It is not even something complex. I just want to bend a flat geometry into a handle for a door knob, so my target shape is a very basic curve. I honestly do not know what to try next, I've even started afresh, but with the same result. :-/

[@SuicidalSummerSnowWoman]

the 1st time i did it it went fine ...but later it doesnt impose the grid anymore...i watched yer vid like 10 times ..still the same problem...and when i try to flowify it gives an input error

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Usually an input error means you either didn't set up your groups properly or your target group doesn't have 4 corners

[@TiffanyNg100]

Thanks!

Hi can anyone suggest me from where to get flowify , this link is has many virus so google blocked it while downloading

Awesome video that sumarises so many great extensions. Ive just found your videos and its such a wealth of brilliant stuff to improve workflow, I know Im going to be watching through these. One question, I model for 3d printing for wargaming and I need to make some architecture for a battledamaged city. The bit I cant work out how to achieve is to make a load of randomly sized debris (randomly shaped angular blocks of different sizes) and then put them onto an undulating surface (from sandbox tools). Essencially I am trying to make a mound of rubble that will be next to a damaged building. Do you have any videos that would cover this already (I know its quite specific but I am sure this would be useful to other 3d modellers)? Thanks for the great work.

Flowify is not compatible with Sketchup Pro 2022. It made the program crash and when I restarted, it wasn't available.

Worked fine in my SketchUp 2022. Maybe you have another extension that's conflicting with it?

[@jarodmorris4408]

@@Thesketchupessentials Oh, I'm blind. When I first installed Flowify, it was at the bottom of my extensions list. Then Sketchup crashed and I restarted it. I didn't notice that it was now higher up on my extensions list. That's embarrassing. I'm that guy who can see a deer at 300 yards but not the ketchup in the refrigerator a foot from my face.
