Very nice plugin
I think, this will save me much time messing around with construction lines and the protactor tools.

Many Thanks.

This looks to be a very helpful plugin. Thank you tak2hata!

Thanks! Great plugin! But one nuance. Does not always get on the right plane when I click near the edge. Is it difficult to make the backlight of planes when cursor is on the small distance near the edge?)

Hi,dem.
I think it difficult.
But I want it, too.

I will consider it well.

Thanks All!

tak2hata, is it possible to add those standard SU\Acad selection options:
with Shift- select additional areas to be stretched
with Alt- DEselect affected areas
with Cnrl- precisely select or deselect (Cnrl+Alt) separate points.
?
Thanks.

Awesome. Thank you again for sharing the fruits of your talent.

I am using this plugin every day and I have some difficulty in a single selection. Each edge select and click one surface, it's wasting modeling time can you change single click to multiple edges selection or viewport selections. . . .

Selection

JQL

SU master you could do that easily with the move tool on the very selection you have. Why don't you try?

sumaster

Hello JQL,

Yes, you are right. But when you find a triangular shape wall.

And when I move current selections, then the result is below. . .

Move Selections

But I want this result. . . . .

Yes, that is only an example. And what if some of the faces to be moved are not aligned with others? The move function wouldn't help speed things up. I could see how this would be helpful. This tool looks to be a more specific version of some of the TIG's Extrusion tools ( extrude edges to face), which can move multiple disconnected edges. Some version of either of these tools really belongs in the basic SU toolbox.

My snappily named 'ExtrudeEdgesByVectorToObject' would take all of the selected edges and moved their vertices along a picked vector stopping at the end of the vector OR the first face[s] that were met it the vector passes through some intervening object[s]...

See near the end of the movie of an example of its simpler sibling 'ExtrudeEdgesByVector'...

sumaster

yes TIG sir right i use this but when ExtrudeEdgesByVectorToObject complete operation extruded edge loop not fill means not create face
