i have however noticed the vertex tool has quirks, have you noticed this?

Explode those curves and it should work, also after the operation delete the coplanar lines.

Great piece of work, thank you! However, while I can crease whole faces I can't un-crease whole faces. I have to do it one edge at a time. Any thoughts?

hmmm....works fine for me. I just hold shift and click on the face while using the crease tool....

I've tried on simple and complex models. Could it be because I'm using 7.1? I'll also try a complete restart also. Either way I'm happy to have the upgrade

Do you get any error messages in the Ruby Console when you try to uncrease?

No errors. Ok, it all seems to depend on exactly where the cursor is when I un-crease. If I click on a place on the face that coincides with the smoothed mesh then it doesn't work. Just a quirk of Sketchup I guess. All is fine and thanks for the help!

Could someone convert those proxies, so I could open them in SU 7 please.

Thanks!

Just got into a problem- my laptop has a few broken arrow keys. That did not bother me before, becuse I don't use them almost never anyway, but how do I adjust the sculpt tools strenght now? It looks like only the radius is adjustable throught the VCB.

Actually you can type in 's' to adjust the strength. (eg. 10s) Did I not mention this in the Quick Reference guide?

From the web site: "Symmetrical sculpting mode using with user-defined work plane"

Is this done by creating a component of half the model, copying and mirroring it? I can't seem to find any other way to do it.

solo

No, it's more like a cutting plane.

Dave R

I wish the tutorials were available.

Ah. I see. Split it with the Zorro-like tool.

See gif by Rich to explain.

Dave R

The GIF doesn't display for me. Sorry.

Just deployed this plugin last night.
Highly usable. Very intuitive.
Wish there was a way to automatically de-select unwanted, or non-compliant faces and keep the selection to proceed with selective smoothing, or subdividing. In my case using Shift/Brush Select does not deselect. Sketchup version 7.1, Dinosaur computer.

nice tools. orga(s)nic!

Just played few minutes...Amazingly fast and really a spectacular set of tools.
Waiting for the registration key.

Can't see the gif...
Checking the link I get the message "You are not authorised to download this attachment."
I assume it's from a secret part of the SCF...

Rich O Brien

You're damn right but give me ten minutes and I'll sort it out!

I really like the plugin and intend to purchase it. I have tested the texturing which is great but I noticed that when loaded Artisan blocks SketchUp's Texture submenu options - Position, Reset Position, Projected, Edit Texture Image. If I want to use these options, I have to disable Artisan via Preferences dialog and restart SketchUp. Is that ok and am I missing something or is it a bug?

Sounds like the old menu-grey-out problem.
Do you have any Fredo plugins installed? If so, have you updated them all?
Do you have a very large number of plugins installed?

Texture context-menu is OK with Artisan for me...
Are there any other context-menu items missing/grayed-out ?
If so this is a known issue from having too many 'commands' loading - there are fixes updates / available, and a script by AlexM to optimize if not eliminate the issue http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=252413#p252413
