        ❓ ❓

        What exactly do you ask?
        If it's already there (the last line) I for some mystic reason don't have it (the version is updated)
        If it's a printscreen of the latest future update- it looks awesome (exactly what I mean (if it processes entire model)).
        P.S. How do you make the printscreen of the dropped down list???

            Give me a couple of days. I need to release an update to TT_Lib2 first.

              Yet another thing:
              Assign component\group mat to its front faces (to the inner geometry with default mat) would be amazing feature.
              There's already the great 'remove C-G materials.rb' , something the opposite is also needed.

                How would you handle groups with faces of multiple materials? It's just not an symmetrical operation.

                  Only default material within the would inherit the comp\group mat. The manually set multiple mats would survive.

                    Oh - I misread you. I thought you wanted face material to group materials.

                    You want the instance materials to be applied to all faces with default material in the group/component? That's already there: "Instance Material to Faces"

                                  Hello,

                                  I have problem installing this tool..

                                  so after i downloaded.. I placed the "material tool rb " into the sketchup-> plugin forlder

                                  and so when i opened a new sketchup.. i still don't see a new plugin for material tool...

                                  could you tell me how to set this up after i download it???

                                  Don't I just need to copy and paste into the sketchup- plugin folder?

                                  and I am using sketchup 8pro version too....

                                    Notice it's an RBZ - not RB file. See this thread on how to install RBZ files: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=42315#InstallRBZ

                                    (I'd forgotten to add the How To link for this download which I usually have)

                                          I encountered problems when installing [Plugin] Material Tools (2.6.0). with the following error message:
                                          "material tools requires a newer version, 2.7.0, of TT_lib"
                                          I also use TT_Lib2-2.9.0, but still error...I doubt Google SketchUp 8 version is too old ...

                                          Can you help me?

                                          Thank so much.

                                            Did you have an old version of TT_Lib2 installed?
                                            Do you have files that have gotten stuck in the VirtualStore?
