          It's attached to the first post with a

          Generally this is the way authors publish and keep their plugins updated here so always look in the first post.

              I have a problem using UVTools. I am new to UV texturing. My current project is a sketchup version of Spaceship Earth from EPCOT. The link to the sketchup file is below. I need to know how to get the texture located in front of the sphere to wrap around the sphere.

              Please give me a tutorial as I would like to know how to do this in the future. Any help would be appreciated as I tried looking through this post but Sketchup kept crashing everytime I tried to do it.

              (would love a youtube video tutorial if anyone has time...it would help us noobs out immensely)

                I don't understand how to use the plugin.
                I installed it,I get the new context menu.
                I create a cylynder/sphere, then... what? I create a wall close to it, apply a texture to the wall and use the UV right menu on it?
                Nothing happens.

                  Why would you install a plugin if you don't know what it is...?
                  Take a look at some of the posts on page 1 and 2... There's a good tutorial by Alan Fraser...

                  Try applying a bitmap texture to a sphere or a cylinder...
                  It's important that it's not just a color but a bitmap texture...
                  You'll see that the texture looks odd on such shapes...
                  Now click the sphere to select it...
                  Right-click it an from the submenu select UV tools and then select i.e. spherical...
                  You'll see that the texture looks correct now...

                  Cheers
                  Kim Frederik

                      Hi All,
                      Since I use Artisan, I have the need to improve my uv-texturing skills ❗
                      I want to use the UV-Tools plugin but I don´t get it to run on SketchUp 2013 - I´m certainly
                      doing anything wrong. The only footprint is the "UVtools.rb"-file (?) but inside SketchUp
                      I dont´t get any icons or any context menu
                      I appreciate any help

                      never trust a skinny cook

                            I use SketchUV and Roadkill, and it works great. 😄
                            WrapR is in development and it will make unwraping inside SU.
