      Reorganized the menu item for the selection filters. Now split into one Select Only->... and Deselect->....
      The list of filters where getting too large, so I felt it was better to split them. Sorry to anyone who might have to reassign their hotkeys.

      Added support for dimension objects and images.

      Added support for soft and smooth edges.

      Added support for hidden entities.

      Added extended support for selecting faces; parallel, perpendicular, opposite and by area.

        very good job thomthom 😉

        minor suggestion: consider adding a 'Deselect All' option for the Tools or Plugins menu, found this handy to assign to a keyboard shortcut to quickly get rid of the selection.

        def self.deselect_all
        		Sketchup.active_model.selection.clear
        	end

          That's interesting... no Deselect All function built in to SU.
          I'll include it for the next release. Thanks for the tip. 👍

                      I've been read this tread but thought that it wouldn't be needed .... but recently i'v recieved a file that is done by someone that really is textured badly ( i mean it is textured to groups, not faces inside them) and is using lots of similar group instead of component, ... so your job is really time concuming and worthy .... 😍

                        Another small update:

                        • Optimized code that's using .typename
                        • Added Select Face Same Direction
                        • Added workaround for SU bug where group definition references becomes corrupted.

                          Added filters for Curves (Polylines)
                          Before Arcs would select Curves and Arcs and Circles - Now they select Arcs and Circles

                          Curves will select Curves, Arcs and Circles.

                          Question:
                          Currently, Curves selects Arcs and Circles are a subset of Curves.
                          But is it preferred that Curves selects only Curves - Arcs only Arcs and Circles selects only Circles?

                            ThomThom, takk for alt.

                            Could you do a little favor? When you update a plugin, could you add the date of the update to the title line? I can't remember version numbers well enough to recognize and update has been issued. I usually can't remember the date ,either. But I know enough to hover the cursor over the clock on my computer screen to find out what the current date actually is.

                            Thank you.

                                  I would make a suggestion here.
                                  I think the title of this ruby should be Thomthom Selection Toys, in your own honor and ownership.
                                  You have advanced Sketchup to a new level here!
                                  Thank you.

                                      Too effusive? No such thing around here!

                                          Well, then, you guys must have been napping. And I reinstate what I said about naming that plugin.

                                            I think I'll keep the name as it is. But I do accept donations in the shape of cookies*. 😉
