[Plugin] UVTools 0.2 Pro (Beta) (Updated for SU6)

Whaat

Whaat thanks for your quick reply, it works manually dividing face into quads although is a bit of a pain... I wonder if your SketchUV plugin will do the job 'automatically'.

Sorry, although SketchUV has a nice triangulation feature that will split all faces into triangles, it has a bit of trouble with faces that have 'holes'

Thanks, lets try it!

...I then right click on the model, selected the UV tools plugin and selected spherical map...

This is the wrong topic then. That's UVTools 1:

And yes, sometimes that plugin does not work perfectly. Can you attach the model?

Hi guys..
I add specific code for launch RoadKill from menu option.

For option dialog..

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

	menu = UI.menu("Plugins").add_submenu("UV Tools")
	menu.add_item("Export UVs to OBJ")  { UVtools.start_bridge()}
	menu.add_item("Launch RoadKill")  { UVtools.runroad()} # add RoadKill option
	menu.add_item("Import UVs from OBJ ") { UVtools.return_bridge() }

	UI.add_context_menu_handler {|menu|
		ents=Sketchup.active_model.selection
		sel=Sketchup.active_model.selection.first
		sub=menu.add_submenu("UV Tools")
		sub.add_item("Spherical Map") {(UVtools.new.spherical_map(ents))}
		sub.add_item("Cylindrical Map") {(UVtools.new.cylindrical_map(ents))}	
	}
end

..for launch Roadkill.


## povman; add code for launch RoadKill from the 'menu' option
	def self.runroad()
		# Roadkill arguments ( from RoadKill for Softimage);
		# -lscm or -abf
		# -fillholes or -notfillholes
		# -live or -notlive
		# a tipically command line;
		# "C;\RoadKill\RoadKill.exe" "obj_path,edge_path,-abf,-nofillholes,-live"
		obj_path=self.get_obj_path
		#TODO; create option dialog for arguments..
		roadpath=UI.openpanel("Path to RoadKill", "c;\\", ".exe")
		#
		command_line = "\"#{roadpath}\" \"#{obj_path},,-lscm,-nofillholes,-live\""
		# for debug..
		puts command_line
		# run RoadKill..
		system(command_line)
	end

Greetings..

Hi povmaniac. Can you explain how to use your code for add this functionality?
I would like to use same function into Sketchuv but i don't know where more edit the code.

I changed the path to roadkill but nothing happen.

My SketchUp is 2014.

Hi, I run into this small problem. Running Sketchup Pro 2014 on both my machines, my old good PC (Windows 8.1) and a MacBook Pro (running Windows 8.1SP on bootcamp). On PC, i can export the object and import and export UV into OBJ with no problem. However, on the bootcamp SketchUp, it simply got this error message "Unable to export UVs".

May I know what will be the problem? Will it be the permission for the folder the UVTools exporting the objects? Can we manually edit the folder where the plugin will export to and import from for the obj with UVs corrected?

Please forgive me for my poor english as it is not my main language. Thank you.

Regards,

Petrus
