Edge Loop Insert – Insert loops like Maya/Blender

[Jianming Mo]

@immaxy The plugin is still in the testing phase. I’ve tested it on simple and common models, and it works fine. For native SketchUp files, most models are not that heavy. I also think the geometry mode is quite practical. It can split non‑quad faces into standard quad faces. Thanks for your positive feedback. I will test its performance on complex geometry as well. Once the official release is ready, I hope more people can try it out and give me suggestions

@Glenn-at-home Thank you for your recognition. I will keep working on it.

Looks really nice. Does it respect Quadface quad convention?

[Jianming Mo]

@Rich-O-Brien
Is this quad‑face based? Is this considered complex geometry?

Can you share the rbz so I can test it? richob@sketchucation.com

@Rich-O-Brien In a few days I'll publish the plugin on Sketchucation. I'm currently adding a point positioning function to LoopCut, allowing users to input VCB values to set exact positions for loop cuts, which I consider essential.

[Jianming Mo]

I’m back! After days of development, LoopCut’s VCB value input is finished. Let me show you how it works:
Basic function: cut non-quad faces into clean quad faces with value input support. Double-click any spot on an edge to add a center cut line.
Use percentages for positioning – enter 20, 30, 70 for 20%, 30%, 70% of the edge length (50 = center). Mouse dragging is also supported for visual positioning.
For exact measurements, type values with units in the VCB. The edge under your mouse becomes the starting point: 0–49 references one end, 51–100 the other. Hover to pick your start edge, then type 1m or 200mm to get a precise cut.
How do you like this VCB implementation?

@Rich-O-Brien I have emailed the file to you. Please kindly check your inbox. Thank you for helping with the testing.

SketchUp terrain meshes are now supported. For unknown reasons, lines generated when selecting different mesh points are sometimes incomplete. Anyone know the cause?

[Jianming Mo]

Long time no see!

LOOPCUT development update:
QuadFace meshes are not supported at this time. I plan to look into adding support in a future release.

Two new features have been added:

1. Bulk insert loop edges: Use X + number shortcut
2. Cut and Separate: Hold the ALT key while operating
