    So here is a fixed version, this will solve the problem with Blender.

    Tested with blender 8, LithUnwrap and Blender.

            Whaat is alive and active so he may consider incorporating some changes into his plugin but re-posting verions is not good.

              I apologize for not updated this plugin. You should be asking permission before you redistribute any plugins. However, I have decided to include your version in the top post of this thread (hmmmm...I guess I'm now redistributing your plugin... ๐Ÿ˜› ๐Ÿ˜† ) if you don't mind.

              Thanks for providing a fix. I had tested the plugin with Blender before and I thought it worked fine but I guess I was wrong.

                  My appoligies, I did not alter anything in the plugin except the fix. (wanted to help the people out that did not know how to fix the plugin)
                  Because the plugin did not get any update I thought the author did not update the plugin anymore. (last update was a long long time ago)
                  Next time I will pm the author first.

                    Thanks for the plugin...Just found it. I am using sketch-up 8 and trying to learn Blender also. I want to be able to texture in blender what I can not in sketch-up the way I want to or that is my main hope. ๐Ÿ˜„ I will give it a try soon.

                      Hi everyone, sorry for the silly question but I'm learning using UV tools by Whaat (thanks a lot to him) with Headus UVlayout although is for Architectural purpose (simple geometry) I wonder if using this method will reduce the file size comparing to editing textures to Photoshop in Sketchup? any way I have a problem when loading the geometry in UVlayout cause some openings do not appear, please see the pictures.
                      Thanks a lot for any help.

                        I think there might be a bug with the OBJ export for faces with more than four vertices. Try manually dividing faces into quads before exporting and see what happens?

                          ๐Ÿ˜ฎ Whaat thanks for your quick reply, it works manually dividing face into quads although is a bit of a pain... I wonder if your SketchUV plugin will do the job 'automatically'.

                            Sorry, although SketchUV has a nice triangulation feature that will split all faces into triangles, it has a bit of trouble with faces that have 'holes'

                                        Hi povmaniac. Can you explain how to use your code for add this functionality?
                                        I would like to use same function into Sketchuv but i don't know where more edit the code.

                                        I changed the path to roadkill but nothing happen.

                                        My SketchUp is 2014.

                                        Launch Roadkill

                                          Hi, I run into this small problem. Running Sketchup Pro 2014 on both my machines, my old good PC (Windows 8.1) and a MacBook Pro (running Windows 8.1SP on bootcamp). On PC, i can export the object and import and export UV into OBJ with no problem. However, on the bootcamp SketchUp, it simply got this error message "Unable to export UVs".

                                          May I know what will be the problem? Will it be the permission for the folder the UVTools exporting the objects? Can we manually edit the folder where the plugin will export to and import from for the obj with UVs corrected?

                                          Please forgive me for my poor english as it is not my main language. Thank you.

                                          Regards,

                                          Petrus
