[Plugin][$] Vertex Tools
-
I didn't know this....
Do you have to have Vert mode avtivated to set it?
I've have Vert Tools set to Alt + V and the tools to Alt + M, S, R etc....

Nope! Just reassign the shortcuts you have for the native Move, Roate, Scale and Select to Tools/Vertex Tools/Move etc.
See screenshot on this page: http://www.thomthom.net/software/vertex_tools/manual/shortcuts
An annoying limitation with SketchUp though, if you try to reassign Ctrl+A, Ctrl+T for Select All and Select None then it works only during that session. When you restart they are reverted.

Is it possible that VT could respect CPoints?
-
Adding to wish-list. Will take a look at it.
-
Add these too...
Edge Slide
Vertex Move parallel to view direction. Without gizmo
Vertex Extrude
Quad Face FillWill i stop?

Hi,
I do not know what I'm doing wrong. For me smoothing doesn't work although the function is checked. I thank you in advance for any help.

It is working. Turn off hidden geometry and you will see all the faces have 4 edges.
-
I assume you mean the soft selection? When you have the Select tool activated, enter a radius in the VCB.

Hi Thomas,
Yes that was what I meant. Thanks for the hint. -
If any OSX Mavericks users tried to register Vertex Tools recently and failed to do so there is a fix released (1.1.7) that takes care of the issue.

I've tried to create a simple star with vertex scaling (see screencast), but it's getting unsymmetrical, any ideas?
-
Did you try Shift + Blue scale?

It works if you use a 10 sided circle rather than a polygon.
-
-
Yes, that's because the center of the five selected vertices isn't the center of the polygon.
You can right-click the Gizmo > Gizmo > Align Custom and then set the position of the gizmo. Note that it works like the Align Axis tool, so you must pick center point and then the X and Y axes.
You can then scale and get your start. Note that after scaling the gizmo re-centers itself.

align gizmo to custom

I know Vertex Tools has been around for a little while but I only recently downloaded the trial version and I just have to say that this plugin finally fills in such a huge hole that Sketchup has been missing in advanced modelling tools and techniques. I only wish I had noticed it before. I was especially STOKED with the scale tool implementation that not only aligns vertices to a single axis, but that we can finally get rid of artifact lines by scaling a plane to absolute zero. Ya-freakin-hoo, it's about time.
Also love the extrude edge and merge vertex options. Beautiful man.

HAppy you like it!
