      Hi CadFather !
      I updated the code, with another tool. It softens edges whose angle normal faces is below 20 degrees.
      So now you've got three tools :

      Mildly Soft edges
      Completely Soft edges
      Unsoft edges

      You forgot a bit of code at the end...

      if (not file_loaded?("Soften.rb"))
      

      Now the tool will be loaded just one time !

      and the code is also changed following the RickW notices (I hope πŸ˜‰ )

      Good luck for the next icon πŸ˜„

      EDIT : Version 1.1


      Soften.rb

      Frenglish at its best !

            small update for whoever likes this idea:

            tweaked Matt's plugin so i get 2 icons (if you ever needed) enable in view > toolbars > soften
            (i removed menus in plugins)

            now it is a quick step!

            Thanks Matt! πŸ‘

                  Does anybody know of a plugin that allows me to soften multiple grouped objects? I have a lot of 3DS models that i import that need to be smoothed and cleaned up, but I have to open each group and soften them individually, which is quite painstaking. Any Suggestions?

                        I can't find a way to assign shortcuts for these tools. Does the needs to be updated, or it's me missing something?

                          Remember that this script is ~10 years old !
                          Because it only makes a toolbar there are no menu items to shortcut onto !
                          However, the native smooth/soften toolset is easily accessed via a shortcut, as that has context and menu items...
                          Why do you need this tool in preference to the built-in native one - the old code uses the very slow 'typename' entity checker, the native one also has more controls over what is changed... ?

                            def onLButtonDown(flags, x, y, view)

                            nothing with this click if nothing is selected

                            puts 'nil' if(Sketchup.active_model.selection.length == 0)

                            Keep what's currently selected.

                            Might be temporarily selected because its hovered if there was no selection when tool was selected

                            @hasSelection = true

                            Select point when and draw when clicking

                            first 3 clicks select points and set jaw & pitch. 4th and 5th click are optional and sets roll

                            if @state == 0
