      Hi all,

      I need to display "hidden Edges" on surfaces in SKP. It's possible when using SandBox (surely because edges can be turned), but seems impossible on regular (non SB) other surfaces. It's quiet important to produce better meshes to see those elements.
      Context of use : Import SKP models in 3dsMax, so I need to see hidden edges to ensure that geometries are best organized as possible.(See ATT.)

      ![View of "Phantom edges"](/uploads/imported_attachments/LW6k_SketchUp_PhantomEdges.jpg "View of "Phantom edges"")

      Anybody know a way (or a plugins) to display that ? If "no", I'll push this to "Dev Request".
      Thx.

          Oh- you mean the triangulated mesh...

          Think TIG has a plugin to do that.

            If you just want to inspect them, without converting your SU model, then you can use this plugin: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=21472

            When installed:
            Plugins->Probes->UVs
            Then use F2 to toggle PolygonMesh on/off

              Hi ThomThom,

              Thanks for this cooool plug. The one I need is simplest, but I will deduce a smaller one from yours.

              Thanks for your help, and overall all those nice tools you've made.
              😍
