      I am sure this is a stupid question but where does one get this plugin? None of the links here take me anywhere.

                ThomThom - the divide face plugin is amazing. i'm redrawing thousands of parcels from the 1960s in a city and this has really just made tedious work about 10 times faster. you're a god!

                  ๐Ÿ˜„ Glad you liked it. It came about because I realised I was repeatedly drawing guidelines offset from and edge, draw an edge, erase guideline. Wanted to merge this into one operation. I often do this while working on faรงades.

                    @ Thomthom : have you in your Selection Toys or other plugs something that select only oriented faces external? (with any orientation ("White faces")

                    for this object for example โ“

                              If the purpose is to orient all faces, then right click a face and choose Orient Faces.

                                No, it's not so simple ๐Ÿ˜‰
                                Try with the object linked above!
                                You must select by hand all different aeras and make different Reverse before Orient ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
                                Easy with this object but for a more complex, it's a mess! ๐Ÿ˜’

                                  Ah, yea, I see now that there are a couple of problem areas. The problem here is knowing programmatically what is "outside".

                                    "Outside" is not given by face's sign of a normal?

                                        Sketchup would have to decide what is outside, what is inside. What if it would have something to do with faces facing camera? Or, if the model is a closed volume somehow Sketchup would check for this and assumes all outside faces should be white, all inside faces should be grey. But what would it decide on an almost closed volume?

                                        I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

                                          That is why with some of my tools - like EEbyRails - it makes the mesh and asks if you want to reverse the faces - it tries to double-guess which is inside and which is out, BUT only you know which way round you'd like it...

                                            Problem arise when you have meshes with internal faces.
