Wrong rotated textures
-
Often while modeling rectangular and straight faces when I apply texture, it gets applied in a rotated way? I have to manually then rotate the texture intuitively which is not accurate. How can I solve it? I have tried using thomthom UV toolkit but it does not solve this issue.

How about an example image?

are the faces reversed?

This happens with changed (rotated) drawing axes. Is this what happens in your case?

The green rotation pin snaps to edges and guides.
A guide rotated a known angle makes exact rotation possible. Be sure to have the red texture pin on the edge/guide intersection prior to the rotation taking place. -

I also found a plugin

Still struggling with those screwed up axes from your poorly created CAD file, huh?

Yeah, I was running out of time. It was too late to make a fresh cad file with all the axes correct and then do Sketchupping again. That's why I was desperate for the plugin. But phew..I'm done with the work. I made a sketchup model for a 32 acre site which was the largest one I've ever worked upon.
The funny part is that I never cared about axes in Autocad for 8 years or so (the same time I've been working with sketchup). And things went really well in sketchup.
But now in 2014-15 I faced this really big trouble.
