        This is odd - I exploded the group and found that all the texture re-oriented. There seem to be something about textures and groups/component when they haven't been positioned - just applied. Intriguing! πŸ€“

          Bad news - this appear to be a SketchUp bug. Or API limitation. I'd say it's a bug because even SketchUp mess up the UV when you explode the group.

          When I read the UVs I get from SketchUp and reapply them immediately the texture change direction (where as you'd expect it to remain the same). What's worse - due to API limitation I cannot work around it because it is impossible for me to know if a texture is simply applied or positioned. (Because positioned textures works fine.)

          I'll have to consult with the SketchUp developers on this.

            OK I see what this tool is for. It's NOT what I bought SU for... but this is a SU image. I just added some mist in pixlr editor. (Needs more foam, I know)

            I jest. I have been using it for all sorts of work.

                thomthom, i can't stop to play with this, i'm trying every single tool and stuff and they are all very amazing and intuitive to use.

                πŸ’­ i noticed only a strange beahaviour i can't quite understand:
                if i select a loop with QFT and then enter VT, the selection/gizmo tool is active and the VCB is showing the "Soft Selection Radius" so that one can adjust it, then for example i move the selection+soft selection and the VCB shows the "Distance" so that one can easily adjust the movement itself.

                Ok, let's pretend now i want to move the ring in another direction, this time with a different soft selection radius, i click on the selection tool in VT floating toolbar and the VCB shows again "Soft Selection Radius" so one think he can adjust the radius again.. BUT i input the new radius and press enter and the tool just act like the previous "move" (or rotate or wathever the previous operation was) is still active and just continue to move it in the same direction such as "Distance" is still actually active in the VCB, instead of modify the selection radius as desired.

                i have to exit the tool, re-select the ring again and then re-open VT and re-enter the radius to make it work again and change the amount of vertice soft-selected.

                am i missing someting in the correct soft-radius adjusting or is it a little bug?

                  Hit ESC after the Move to return to soft selection.

                    you are right, it works fine if you hit esc and is also faster than click on the toolbar! thank you!

                          Yea, the ESC thing to get back to selection radius isn't ideal. It's on my list of things to look into for improvement for next round.

                            Any chance we can see pre picked verts dropped when hitting ESC and using the move tool?

                                  Use the Deselect command.

                                      should i uninstall/delete the previous build or it overwrites when .rbz is loaded?

                                        It should overwrite it. To be sure you can type in the Ruby Console: TT_Vertex::PLUGIN_VERSION - it should return 1.1.2 is successful.
