      Why do I install the free 15-day version of the display icon gray, can not be used.
      If I buy genuine worry about will not be displayed? ?

      Unless Artisan was installed previously on your computer, the icons should not be gray until 15 days have expired.

      Once you purchase and register, the icons will no longer be grayed.

      If you have problems with the plugin after purchase, I can provide you a refund.

      Thanks

            Well, it's a fresh new file I've started, that's the weird thing.

              Hi Peter,

              Maybe you have a mask active? If you have any edge or face selected, the sculpt tool will only affect those selected entities. I am not sure why else you would experience this.

              Dale

              Thank you, Dale, I'll keep that in mind!

              BTW is is mathematically impossible to have smooth work in vertical lock mode (like sculpt and flatten)? What do you think about a lock down setting instead of the shift key?

              Great tool. Still learning, I guess.

                Good suggestions, thanks! I will add them to the wishlist.

                  It might help if you post the file. Also, what other plugins do you have installed?

                  Try temporarily putting all other plugins in a backup folder so they don't get loaded by SU to see if that fixes things. Then, try to use process of elimination to see if one particular plugin is contributing to the bug-splat.

                  Thanks.

                    Well, I'm using a new file, so there's nothing in there that could cause problems

                    Edit: I've removed all the plugins, and no more bugsplats!
                    Edit 2: Reinstalled SketchUp + replaced all the outdated plugins = problem solved!

                                  A couple questions--maybe others have these issues (features?).

                                  1. When I select with the sculpt select tool, the selection partially disappears (some faces become unselected) during the first sculpt operation. The full selection might be functional during the first operation, but upon completion of the operation only the remaining selection is active. Why doesn't my full selection stay until I change it? I'd like to keep working on the selected faces. [This seems to be faces along the edge of the selection, which become deselected. I find that if I then add them back in, they stay selected better?]

                                  2. The sculpt circle and arrow disappears during the operation (often not always).

                                  3. Here's an example of something I want to do. I would like to select an area on one side of a hard edge and bring that edge up with the selection. This sort of works, stretching the faces on the opposite side. Is there a plugin or method that would leave those far side faces in place and infill the gap? Such a method could (for example) create a vertical face with breaks top and bottom as the geometry on the selected side is raised.

                                      Your second item I have also seen. It may have something to do with the tool's focus and sometimes cannot find the face normal?--especially in a busy area. Sometimes zooming in and adjusting the radius has helped me. I have occasionally used -BTM's Sculpt in conjunction with Artisan while in Sketchup v7. I don't know how that one will perform in v8.

                                      On your first item, does this have anything to do with the Crease Tool?

                                      I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

                                        Thanks for the note, Tim. Never tried Sculpt. I see no pattern to my issues, but I think my new computer's speed is helping. Still they seem pretty common and troublesome--such as the loss of selections in the middle of operations.

                                        I have a lot of thoughts for Artisan for shaping terrain, but meanwhile it is still a fantastic and cool tool. And that's just talking about the sculpt side. The SDS side is also mind-boggling.

                                          My one wish for Artisan is that it kept UV coordinates when subdividing and sculpting.
