    Screenshot 2023-08-28 101602.jpgI am not sure of how to report problems.. But I'm seeing a little icon of the the last material I used in Thru paint. is jus shows up as a 1/"x1" thumbnail in the canter of my screen . Also it seems like the new SU upgrade is making fredo tools harder to load/ reload too

      I suggest to upgrade to LibFredo6 v14.2a.

        Does any one have a better instructional link on how to use Thrupaint for architecture? I can not for the life of me get thrupaint to layup siding on a house and have the mapping all make sense? i will have five walls that the clapboards aline correctly, but one will run vertical. I will need to manually it adjust a few walls . I would think there is a way to aline the mapping so the clapboards are all at the sam elevation and direction

          Fredo,
          would it be possible to implement a custom nudge distance please? currently moving texture with arrow keys is too aggressive in many situations. if texture represents a large surface say 9X9m it nudges ~30cm which is NOT good). May be to make it viewport dependent (the more you zoom in the more gentle nudging you get)?

                Hello, experiencing the same issue here. Updated to the latest version and now can't start the plugin. Made sure the requirements are updated and working. Would be thankful for a quick feedback!

                      For those getting an error message after updating, I seem to have found a solution. You have to completely uninstall the old version and quit SketchUp, before installing the latest version.
                      In the past, installing without removing the old version would usually replace the old version. It seems this is not the case in this example. 2.3a works for me now.

                        The Thrupaint extension says it has expired but when it opens up the link, it is not bringing me to the correct page. I say Fredo 6's response to someone else abut a new update, but I clicked their link and it just took me to a blank page. Where can I download the update?


                        Says it has expired

                                  In my case Fredo6 Thru Paint 2, last version causes SU unresponsive, SU simply freezes.
                                  There is no option to disable loading ALL SU materials once the extension activated.

                                  Please advise.
                                  Thank you in advance

                                    I would need a few more information in order to understand what happens...

                                    Is this the first time you use ThruPaint 2?

                                      Hello,

                                      No, I have been using the previous version already and the v2 as well.
                                      I have no idea of what has happened - the extension is leggy and finally unusable, it freezes SU and the only way to get rid of the issue is to force-stop SU.

                                      There is something that takes a lot of time each time I activate the extension - materials loading. As on the picture attached.

                                      PS
                                      I think the problems is in loading materials each time I start the extensions.
                                      Having them a lot it takes a lot of time and during this actions SU is dead.

                                      I cannot afford to wait even a half of an hour or more for the materials loaded.
                                      I thought once loaded, materials are kept in cache/memory for any SU session.

                                      PS2

                                      Definitively - having a lot of materials, I cannot use the extension.
                                      Each time I activate, it takes ages to load them. SU has no such a problem loading materials.
                                      Is there any solution to the issue?

                                        Hi there!

                                        I've been using ThruPaint for awhile without many issues, however I was talking to a friend that also has the same plugin and he mentioned his works a little differently than mine.
                                        ok2.png
                                        Whenever I select a material to paint with, the selection menu completely disappears after I click on a given material, meanwhile his stays up.
                                        ok1.png
                                        I have to exit out of the plugin completely then reopen it to get that selection menu again. Is there a setting I'm missing that would make it so mine stays up as well? My friend said he didn't change his settings in any way to make that happen, so I'm at a loss for what I should be doing to get the same result. It would be really nice to be able to do that as well.

                                        Operating System: Windows 11
                                        SketchUp Version: 23.0.419 64-Bit
                                        ThruPaint Version: 2.3a - 31 Oct 23

                                        Thank you!

                                          This! Sometimes this new window is gone and it's really annoying. I wish there was an option to revert to the old simpler UI - generally not sure why there was need to invent it
