      Would it be possible to have a tool similar to crease, where you select two loops and SUbD doesnโ€™t subdivide between those points?

      Thinking about it, that sounds almost impossible to implement....just throwing it out there.

        its been my practice to subdivide, and yes exploding at times, quadifying autofolded faces (takes a long time dealing with the diagonals).. It can be a pain with complicated meshes ๐Ÿ˜ž. .. Even with perfectly done quads can all of a sudden triagulate when you toggle subd.

        SUbD will preserve quads from the original mesh. You will only see triangles if you have n-gons. (Note that quads from SUbD's process will be triangulated internally. But you can use QFT to toggle off triangulation of coplanar faces.

        I wish autofold can be totally disabled..and wish loops can be moved by dragging instead of adding and removing...

        AutoFold cannot be disabled because it kicks in when a planar face is transformed such that the points are no longer planar. There is no way around that

        I second your wish for better loop adjustment control. A while back I did start on experimenting with better tools for that. Not complete, but there is an Offset Loop tool in latest QFT. (Though that's only for inserting new ones. Being able to move existing ones would be nice.)

        SUbD is using OpenSubdiv for the subdivision process - I don't have that kind of control Also the algorithm wouldn't be able to cope with exceptions like that.

          I thought as much. Since no two meshes will be the same, it probably means you would need some kind of AI to interpret how something is subdivided.

            Yea, it would be too complex to code understanding of such asymmetric mesh I'm afraid.

              I saw a lesson on modeling a car rim in a blender. I decided to repeat it in a SketchUp.

                ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘ Congratulations! - this is a clean and accurate work, a very complex shape and nice as well! ๐Ÿ˜„
                could you please show the raw geometry as well?

                      Very nice! I'm happy to hear that workflow from other software packages could be transferred into SketchUp.

                        Really cool timelapse!
                        I see you have the same issues as me with autofolds and mirrors (delete, remirror, redelete, reremirror, etc.). And to flatten faces you use scale?

                                        there is always something to learn ๐Ÿ˜„ actually, Ludo found its way to here over England (named "Ludo" there as well) and came from India original. Our tiltle "Mensch รคrgere Dich nicht" means slomething like ""People don't tease you" or "Man, donยดt get annoyed/enraged" which is a funny title because the man on the box cover is very annoyed obviously ๐Ÿ˜„
