      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. 👍

                    thanx thanx and thanx again tomtom...
                    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!

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

                                            Thomthom:
                                            I do not know how to do the cookies thing in cyberspace. I am sure they would taste a little bit flat, and I'm not sure if you would want one of those giant cookies or just "byte" size.
                                            It is ok with me if you want to keep the name as is.

                                            Now to business. I tried to do a Select Loop on a roughly cylindrical model with a lot of triangular faces. The target loop was a fairly direct series of segments. I first set Edges only, then select loop. This portion of the model is contained inside a group.
                                            What I got was the edge and the two adjacent triangular faces highlighted. I was obviously expecting a loop around the circumference to be highlighted. What did I do wrong?
