@juju Well spotted - thus far 'we' had just assumed that !

I just took a look at FormZ matching tool- it's amazingly effective and simple. It's a shame it's still absent in standard SU. I'd buy a similar commercial plugin for sure. P.S. Is it possible to export from FormZ cameras via Skp\3ds\Fbx format?

Even more, it would be nice to have a plugin which helps in optimizing SU model by marking groups and components with colors according to their polygon count. ... and than gives an option to reduce them (useful for making proxies also)

Rich, any chance you could update this extension so one could preset / assign which layer you would like the anchor points to be placed on?

@fredo6 said: @ahmed0007 said: Follow mode not working any solution? Can you clarify and explain what is the problem. Follow option works fine for me. Fredo hello! fredo6 can you see my above response?

Didier, back in #000000 ! Thank you for the useful extension.

I support that idea, in an attempt to make commands fit in better. For example, we generally see option (alt) used where a duplication is performed. To switch that to command is less intuitive therefore.

Fredo, Thank You for all your efforts on YouTube. They make leaning your outstanding plugins much easier.

Hello ThomThom, can you update the plugin for SU2018 because does not work like on versions before. Thanks

About .rb / .rbz Zip the .rb , rename it in .rbz : you have an .rbz ! a free zipper if you have not : https://www.7-zip.org (maybe prefer zip than 7z for mor compatibility...

Say I have a Photo: X*Y (X & Y >126) how trim it for have the maximum of pieces of 126*126? Trim must be Vertical & Horizontal (as shown on my previous post) All must be trimed, number of all pieces must be smaller as possible Photo must be rebuilt with all pieces like a puzzle Is that more clear ? MagicaVoxel : it's free! Context is for this crazzy prog where you can't import images biggest than 126*126 pixels! But you can import any number of images for assembly them ! minute 2.10 --> topshop is used but with result of images of same size images I want use any size of the start image! http://youtu.be/CcYUs3ekKis https://youtu.be/9NG7cFc-ddQ http://youtu.be/L6gkhuHJpGk Here I import an unic image of 126*126 pixel: the tulips' field must be grow!

We owe TIG a lot of fantastic plugins, but not this one. This is Pierreden´s plugin, and it´s based on an ivy generator script by Thomas Luft.

I use TIG's Originate to Component axes since 2012. https://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=43582&p=620193&hilit=originate+to+component+ax#p620193 And Chris Fulmer's Center on Origin since 2009: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=152438#p152438

@try2 I would suggest you copy the model and remove the big image, so that it can get smaller and you can attach it to the thread or PM it to me. For TopoShaper, make sure that that the group only contains the construction points, and, if you wish to impose a perimeter, a FACE (or several) which gives the surrounding contour. Fredo

Thanks for such a fast replies! One additional question about plugins. Do you know if there is any plugin that would create some kind of lattice wireframe inside the object, see image below? I am just thinking if there was an easy way to do this maybe the 3d lattice structure could be created by trimming and thickening the wireframe with the help new functionality in Profile Builder 3.0 (Build Along Multiple Paths).

That is genius pixero - I totally forgot about that method. the only thing is that for some reason it scales at 1/10th scale but thats a really easy sort

Unreal ignores back faces (unless you apply a two sided material) so some thickness is necessary. Edit: regarding thickness, just keep in mind that backfaces in SketchUp are 'transparent' in Unreal. They wont generate shadow. As long as you model nicely (front faces where they should be) all should go well. Maybe this old article is a nice read about converting a model to UE; https://www.ronenbekerman.com/striving-for-real-time-photorealism-in-architectural-visualisation/

Thanks Pbacot to make it so clear - I use this "rv1974 method" so often, but never with complex layer arrangements. The thought about this didn't even cross my mind - there is always something to learn

Thank you Didier very much dtr
