      Quietly moving forward.

      WrapR goes to open beta soon.

      Can we play with Wrap-R before Christmas?

      I love Sketchup

        That said VT is still the best extension ever made ๐Ÿ‘ IMHO

        That is clearly wrong, the best one is Edgetools2 splitface tool along with SectionCutFace

        Why two together?

        Split face tool should be in SU. Actually maybe both these should have been. However SFT does fail to take sometimes with inferences. Need multiples and repeat action to be overwhelmingly great... Should be standalone tool.

              Does exist Function "Recall (Last) Selection" ?

              Because after apply some deformations and click on the empty space
              seems selection is losted being always inside Vertex tools! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

              If not, very painful in case of numerous or/and complex selection!

                Some humble features requests:

                1. Is it possible to enable snapping on gizmo manipulating;
                2. Ability to lock (vertices) selection.

                  I have some issues with scaling along local axes. It simply not 100% precise.
                  Please see attached. I tried to flatten to 0.00 but had no luck.
                  Another problem- I can't wind a way to input values (while scaling) with keyboard,
                  mouse(=pain) only. Do I miss something?
                  Edit: After a brief research I found that Fredo6 Scale and S4u scale can flatten to zero in any direction.

                    !

                    Clicking in empty model space clears the selection as intended - mimicking native SketchUp selection.

                    Next release will have snapping at origin. And other gizmo improvements.

                      And inferences? Like we discussed before?

                      That would be stellar!

                        Vertex tools remain one of my most used plugin. It changed the way I looked at SU.
                        Iโ€™d just like to bring up my request if I may the following features for vertex tools next release.

                        1. The ability to soft select โ€œconnected verticesโ€ only and not all vertices within
                          the radius.

                        vertex tools q.png

                        1. To be able to offset or inset quad faces. Same as native offset but split to quads. I dot know if it should come thru QFT or other plugins. But this will be great addition
                          offset/ inset

                        3.To be able to merge vertices with snapping. Should be able to select which
                        vertices move and which one stay. (Maybe locking a vertex will make it stay)

                        1. To be able to lock selected vertices. In this way well have better control of
                          Vertices that you want to edit . This could be an option if issue no1 is hard to do.

                        Well, as it is now is very useful. Just want to present this for the author's consideration..

                          ^^! to deselect softly pre-selected ones would be great indeed!

                            I need to look through my notes on inferences with the gizmo. I recall having conversation about this.

                              How would this be different from the existing merge tool?

                                The current merge tool collapses the selection into a single point which is the average position of the selection.

                                When you want one vertex to be joined to one fixed vertex and snaps it into place. If we can do that, It will be great! (Snapping can be toggled on and off and radius be pre- set)

                                        So... you're activelly working on VT2 too and it might feature inferences! That's VERY cool!

                                          Quick question, can we maintain the curve after moving vertices?. i noticed that curves are exploded (unwelded) after you move one or two of its vertices... have to reweld them back..

                                            I love Vertex tools, but I miss one function very much: The ability to "move normal". I'd like to be able to select a group of vertices (for example a loop) and move every single vertex in its own normal direction (and the same distance). One possible use could be to create a 'ridge'or 'groove' in an organic shaped mesh.
