As always, nothing less than amazing. All of your videos are incredibly educational. And your SketchUp course is worth every penny. Do you have any videos about creating those custom profiles? It seems like it should be pretty simple but it always takes longer than I think it should and as with most of your videos I'm pretty sure there's a more efficient way to do it than I am currently going about it.
I have installed it and got the hang out it. However now the menu dialogue boxes don't come up - have tried to uninstall and reinstalled but nothing changes do you have any ideas? please help
Hi I have encountered the same problem. No dialogue box appears to select the style and input height and width. Also i am just trying to draw it along an edge and nothing appears. Did you find a solution? It will be a great help.
If you can’t customise your faces. Uninstall from extension manager and your file destination. Then reinstall it from sketchucation, then into you extension manager. It worked for me
Justin! Is there a way to populate an object that has surfaces but not "edges"? I've noticed my sketchup has begun extruding some faces without edges included on the newly generated faces, So a way to repopulate the polygon with edges would be very useful. Also, have you experienced any bugs where your model undergoes an extreme transformation for no apparent reason, such as a few edges moving instantly to a distant point in the build space while you work on a different part of the component or even another component entirely?
Quality video as always, thanks a lot. The plugin is also really helpful and does many things better than the native follow me tool. Will use this quite often in the future. The only improvement I would wish for is a better was to follow a curve. If I am not missing something I would, if I were to follow a curve made of 60 segments for example, have to click one by one on each segment, resulting in 60 clicks... I did try to weld the segments already but that does not do the trick. I would love if there would be a faster way to do this...
You are right it is a bit difficult to do some curve follow me. but on another hand, this extension is base on following your mouse pointer, not following the path. I don't know how can I solve this paradox. any idea?
@@majidmahmoudi4024 Hey, and thanks first of all for your reply. As well as for that awesome extension of course. As I said before, a daily SketchUp user I really do appreciate it, thanks. As for your question: I am no developer and have absolutely no technical background so I don´t know if anything I could suggest has technical value, but I will try non the less with some ideas. 1. The native SketchUp follow me tools allows to preselect a path and the follow me does then follow that path when the icon is clicked, maybe some kind of preselection could work here as well? Or some kind of special selection with which you first choose a curve and tell the plugin that this is a segmented path with x-number of segments and each segment has y-lenght... 2. Another idea would be, as you mentioned that the selection does follow the mouse pointer, to do something similar as the Path Select Tool of the SketchUV plugin does. WIth that selection tool a path can be selected by hovering oder the individual segments with the mouse curse (without clicking) that would follow the same principals in my opinion but would speed up the process significantly. Best regards, and thanks again. Please keep up the awesome work.
@@christiankrause3273 Both of your ideas are great and also possible to do. Another idea can be the autoselect points. Press a key and move the cursor above the curve or object and curve or object points automatically added. When we release the key everything will be the same as before. I will do my best to find a solution to this problem. Thank you so much for your ideas.
@@christiankrause3273, You can automatically add points in the edges by pressing and holding the "x" key. Edges can be in a line, path, curve, edges of a face, edges of a group, or edges of a component. Also, you are free to move from an object to another one by click on it.

I am currently using Sketchup 2021 and have tried the follow me method for group only to find it not working. Is there any work-around for the new version Sketchup 2021?
I like the Maj-Follow Me tool. Could you not use this to make a wall? Can you make a 1" x 12" rectangle and change the scale? I have to trace of As-Built drawings from a DWG file and this seems like it would make it easier to make a wall.
@@Thesketchupessentials I agree when drawing from scratch, but if you are tracing a drawing it may be easier especially over a PDF since they skew a little sometimes. Cutting holes is easier than some of the other wall extensions too. At least how I am using it. Thanks for the video's though. They have been great for speeding up my learning curve.
@@rushikeshpatil9621 It´s available at Sketchucation or via the Extension Warehouse. Best watch Justins (TheSketchupEssentials) video on where and how to download extensions. ;-)
This is basically next to useless for me. I cannot save profiles. It may be because I have SU on my D:\ drive and the extension is looking in the wrong place than where it is saved.
Hi everyone - Let me know what you think about Maj Follow Me in the comments below!

You have no idea how much your videos are helping me to improve my skills, thank you so much 😊
Happy to help!
Thank you for your videos, I nearly learned more than 40 plugins from it. Big thanks.
Glad I could help!
I am definitely going to pick this up.
Nice! This came in clutch, thank you!
How good is it for circles and curves, like domes and revolving and stuff, this is where I get most of my holes and issues.
These MAJ series of extensions are great. The developer is doing good job with them.

This comes in handy now that I'm modelling skirting.
I cant add custom faces why it does not show up
Pls help
me either
Thanks, Justin. I can really use this. I've always been uneasy using the follow-me tool.
Glad you liked it!
Thankyou sir, hope to see more tutorials from you.
More to come!
super thanks man
Pretty cool. Could you please write me down what extension you used for the railing?

You are great Justin. I do enjoy your videos...

Please make a video how to make snap fit joint with sketchup
You should change your channel names to skp life saving
Wow man you make that's too simple ❤

You could. For me it's not as easy as just drawing a profile and extruding it, but you could if you wanted to I guess

Way more easier than the native Follow me tool
Thakns a lot 👌
mistakenly I close the Maj tool how to get it back?
Man u just amazing (^_^) I've learned complete sketch up from your tutorials only.....Its so fucking amazingly easy...
THIS TOOL ISIN'T WORKING IN MY SKETCHUP AND I DONT KNOW WHY
How do you orbit and use tool? For some reason when I try to orbit tool goes away. What am I doing wrong?
Are you clicking and holding the middle mouse button?
a mazing plugin thanks soooo
Glad you like it!
Is there a better offset tool?
Cause the built-in offset always sucks when 2 curves are welded
Try "Smart Offset" by TIG.

Seems Semi profile Builder. Thank Again
Yep - Semi
no work with circle point?
Isn`t Profile Builder 3 much better and multifunctional than this? Thank you
Sure - it also costs money. Depends on what you need and are willing to spend
This is basically next to useless for me. I cannot save profiles. It may be because I have SU on my D:\ drive and the extension is looking in the wrong place than where it is saved.
Almost the same profile builder
Well...not exactly. But it's at least kind of like the individual profile tool
