              Select Only -> Polygons ?

              Note that Select Only and Deselect modifies your current selection - doesn't add to it.

                that's exactly what I'm doing.
                select the model, then Select Only -> N-Gons and nothing is selected, even tho I can see Ngon's.

                to clarify :Stoys.jpg

                    sorry cannot do that, it's copyrighted work that will be for sale, and it's not just the mesh in the image above.

                      Polygon and N-Gon refer to entities where the Entity Info display Polygon.

                          In fact i believe this N Gon function shown only figures who are made with the tool "Polygon" πŸ˜‰
                          And not geometric figures that you can see as Ngons πŸ˜‰

                            Exactly - the selection tool doesn't look at the shape of the geometry, but filters the selection based on the types of entities SketchUp reports.

                            When you select something in SU, the Entity Info window will say what type it is - all the filtering is based on these types.

                                I can make so sense why you would not have a Selection Toys menu item under tools and various Context Menu entries (which depend on what you right-click)

                                I was about to ask if you'd checked the Preferences for Selection Toys, but if you have not menu... I'm really stomped.

                                Can you post a screenshot of your Tools menu?

                                Hello Thomas!
                                It happens with me also! You can see a screenshot here
                                http://www.netcond.net/N3TO/Screenshot_toolsmenu.jpg
                                I see all posts but I can't resolve the trouble.
                                apologies for my bad english...
                                Thanks

                                  Check the Tools menu.

                                  Tools -> Selection Toys -> Enable Toolbar
                                  then after you do that - check the menu you showed in the screenshot.

                                        It was working in V7, but I can't get Sel Toys working in V8. Feeling stupid for a number of reasons.

                                        My configurtion of Sel Toys:

                                        C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins\TT_Lib
                                        C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Tools\TT_Select_Toys

                                        After SU8 re-start:

                                        no context picks for Sel Toys
                                        no pick for Sel Toys in Tools menu drop down

                                        ~ Brooke

                                          Don't put plugins in the Tools folder.

                                          There should be

                                          C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins\TT_Lib\ - (inside, lots of .rb files)

                                            OK. Thank you. I thought that since it is accessed by the tools menu..., but thinking is not my strong suite.

                                            You must enable it from Tools->Selection Toys->Enable Toolbar before it appears under View->Toolbars->Selection Toys.

                                            While the install didn't seem that clear to me, I didn't notice many install problems in the thread, so likely I am being thick. Perhaps because I assumed it was different than the norm when it is not. (Is the download count related to this, only 141 for such a useful tool? Or is that count only since the last update or somehow not reliable?)

                                            Thanks, again.
