Dear ruby masters, thank you for your response.

Here is an exemple of what I did for a custom sunscreens system somwhere near equator. The goal is to stop every sun rays while in the same time according visual porosity toward sky. The visual porosity changes according the position of the observer.
I used 3ds max and polyboost plugin's "bitmap select" feature. After that, back to Sketchup and "components onto face collections".
The components layout what painted in photoshop with brushes in order to obtain gradations.I am also thinking of using this method for façade panels variations.
My goal is to be able to do the whole process inside Sketchup.PS: My english lessons are so far away: sorry for my frenglish

Post back some samples of what you use it for. I'm very curious.

Works perfectly.
We need to be carefull with the number of colours of the bitmap!After a few tests,
best settings are:
. indexed colors in photoshop or another image editor (in Photoshop you can choose the number, in the exemple below we have 12 colors)
. save as bmp (8bit, no compression).First exemple is specialy dedicated to Thomthom

More serious use exemples to come asap.
