My second Shwivel app purchase and works flawlessly, I just wish hitting ENTER on the keyboard just entered the number into the field and not close the entire panel and run the script
I second this.
The intuitiveness and adaptability are truly impressive. It works extremely well for me. Bravo!
I purchased the plugin with anticipation. I don't know if nothing has been done to this plugin for a long time, but it has a lot of errors, and Fusion crashes immediately in certain situations. For instance, when I click on the "Add joints" option and want to edit a joint once the model is created, Fusion crashes right away, not with an error report, but it just closes. The motion linkage is also completely off. I'm a bit disappointed that I paid for it and the plugin has so many errors. I wouldn't buy it again.
Hello Oliver. Can you share videos of these situations via email? What system do you have, Windows or Mac?
I have the exact same issue. Any edit to joints causes immediate crash/close of Fusion 360. I'm running on macOS Ventura 13.6.1 with the M1 chip. I also have an Intel Mac running macOS Ventura 13.6.1 that does the same. No recovery file is created during the crash. Another issue is that any deletion of joints causes the entire planetary gear assembly to delete. I just got off a zoom call with Autodesk support. Regarding CaseNo:21656344 - Subject:Crashing. They had the same issues and told me I needed to contact you. I can provide a screen recording if needed. Just let me know. Outside of these issues, app has been great and has made making planetary gears a breeze. Thanks.
Saved me a ton of work. Well worth the cost.
I was not going to buy until I saw the "..helical, double helical, herringbone ..." option. The UI seems different from the video, but that is ok, I love and reccommend this plugin.
Very well made, and comprehensive addon
Well worth the cost
This saved me a ton of time on a recent project. Thank you!
