      Hi pdwyer, I don't have SU 8 so I cannot test it. Anyway the plugin only appears in the context menu so right click on a texture-->UV tools.

          I'm using Sk 8-0-11751 on a mac book pro. Can you point me to the download for the uv tools plugin? Thanks so much.

            Generally this is the way authors publish and keep their plugins updated here so always look in the first post.

                I have a problem using UVTools. I am new to UV texturing. My current project is a sketchup version of Spaceship Earth from EPCOT. The link to the sketchup file is below. I need to know how to get the texture located in front of the sphere to wrap around the sphere.

                Please give me a tutorial as I would like to know how to do this in the future. Any help would be appreciated as I tried looking through this post but Sketchup kept crashing everytime I tried to do it.

                Thanks in advance

                (would love a youtube video tutorial if anyone has time...it would help us noobs out immensely)

                  I don't understand how to use the plugin.
                  I installed it,I get the new context menu.
                  I create a cylynder/sphere, then... what? I create a wall close to it, apply a texture to the wall and use the UV right menu on it?
                  Nothing happens.

                    Why would you install a plugin if you don't know what it is...?
                    Take a look at some of the posts on page 1 and 2... There's a good tutorial by Alan Fraser...

                    Try applying a bitmap texture to a sphere or a cylinder...
                    It's important that it's not just a color but a bitmap texture...
                    You'll see that the texture looks odd on such shapes...
                    Now click the sphere to select it...
                    Right-click it an from the submenu select UV tools and then select i.e. spherical...
                    You'll see that the texture looks correct now...

                    Cheers
                    Kim Frederik

                        Hi All,
                        Since I use Artisan, I have the need to improve my uv-texturing skills ❗
                        I want to use the UV-Tools plugin but I don´t get it to run on SketchUp 2013 - I´m certainly
                        doing anything wrong. The only footprint is the "UVtools.rb"-file (?) but inside SketchUp
                        I dont´t get any icons or any context menu
                        I appreciate any help

                        never trust a skinny cook

                          you could try ThruPaint

                              I use SketchUV and Roadkill, and it works great. 😄
                              WrapR is in development and it will make unwraping inside SU.
