      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.

          Eric

            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

                  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

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