[Plugin] Edge Tools

Khai

oh you just made my day...
I'm getting a lot of faces divided on import bringing my work over from trueSpace - in tS, they are quads and there's no issue.. but in SU, they are tri'd.. the vertices are ever so slightly out of alignment.. tS does not care... SU does... this should then fix those faces

cool tools sets!

Thanks Thomthom. Very useful. Max has something similar to straighten edges in the edit poly modifier called Make Planar. Adding the Make Colinear also is a nice touch.

I am sure this is a stupid question but where does one get this plugin? None of the links here take me anywhere.

Divide Face (See video in main post.)

That is very good!

ThomThom - the divide face plugin is amazing. i'm redrawing thousands of parcels from the 1960s in a city and this has really just made tedious work about 10 times faster. you're a god!

thomthom

Glad you liked it. It came about because I realised I was repeatedly drawing guidelines offset from and edge, draw an edge, erase guideline. Wanted to merge this into one operation. I often do this while working on façades.

Very practical for have your own grid!

@ Thomthom : have you in your Selection Toys or other plugs something that select only oriented faces external? (with any orientation ("White faces")
