          Thanks Sean.
          So you're still using SU? I thought you'd gone all Max now?

            yup still using SU, some things are still way quicker with a face modeler than a solid modeler, i doubt it will ever be out of my workflow, i wish u were writing max script, there are alot of sketchup like actions i would like to see available in max... but i have to work with what i have i guess ๐Ÿ˜„ thanx again for this script ๐Ÿ‘

              Well, the office is making more and more Revit models. And importing them into SU is a workflow nightmare. So I'm very tempted to get Max into my office toolkit. ...so who knows... ๐Ÿ˜‰

              Btw, got any new renders to show off?

                  email or make a post in the gallery. I'm always curious to see what you produce.

                    Hi Thom,

                    There is an "unwanted" feature in this plugin (I do not necessarily want to call it a "bug"); it erases coplanar edges also when that edge divides faces where the same material applied but positioned differently. See screenshots attached.

                    Highlighted dividing, coplanar edge
                    After running the plugin
                    Could there be at least a settingthat prevents this? I was making an arched surface for this vault when I first discovered this - it simply erased all the dividing edges and of course screwed up the arch big time.

                    arch.jpg
                    Thanks for looking into this issue - this is the best ever cleanup script I have ever encountered. aybe abother wish - could there be a feature/setting to clean up only whatever is in context (like inside a goup) and/or in a certain selection?
                    Or maybe I missed something?

                    Gai...

                      hmm... Yes - I see how this can be an issue. Will need to ponder on how to avoid this though.

                            I tried to lock such faces with positioned materials but the script erases lines in locked groups, too! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

                              That's interesting. Another thing to note down.

                                Armed with more info from Simone Nicolo I now have a better method for detecting coplanar faces - the same method Sketchup use. I think it's 100% reliable. No more messing about with tolerances.

                                Highly recommended update!

                                  ๐Ÿ˜ž Turns out it's not 100%. In one of my test model it still left some edges that could be erased.

                                  Updated with some minor UI fixes.
