      Hi,

      I found the error. As Gaieus said, in the enlargement can be seen some additional faces. This I have now adjusted.

        Hi Thomas,

        I'm still have a few problems with copy and paste UVs. It is probably a mistake from me again. Would you again take a look at it.

          It's still some non-quads over at that end.

            Hi Thomas,

            I thank you for your efforts. I'm sometimes a bit hasty with my questions. In the future I will take a closer look before I ask a question.

              Hi Thomas,

              Once it has worked with the hull I need help again. I do not succeed, to bring the texture on these relatively simple geometry. As far as I can judge it must be all quad faces in the model. Yesterday I spent two hours trying to find the error in the geometry, without success. Thanks in advance.

                  Are you using the Copy and Paste function? Or the UV map function?

                      Hi Thomas,

                      I've just tried it again and it worked. I do not know what mistake I made.

                        Not yet perfect but a step in the right direction with the help of the Quad Face tool from Thomas.

                              In the first post, there is a reference to another plugin (library) that you also need to install for this one to work. Please, make sure TT_Lib (linked from the first post) is also installed.

                                  Bit I can´t change the number of segments for the connect edges tool :S

                                  Can you help me?

                                    Type in the number of segments, the VCB will update as you type. Then hit Enter to apply. The on screen UI doesn't update as you type. it's just there so you can choose to adjust either number of segments or pinch.

                                        A while ago we debated how best to deal with the odd triangular facets needed to complete a manifold surface that is otherwise 'quads'.
                                        Lying in bed this morning I realized that the Art-Deco inverted hemisphere leaded-glass lampshade above my head was made entirely out of quads 😲
                                        Here's how [applied to an entire sphere]...quadsphere.PNGThere are two solutions, depending on the quads' hidden/soft/smooth edges - the right-hand one with lines of latitude hidden/soft/smooth is the 'most even' type...
                                        This is of course with lines of latitude equally spaced which distorts the quads nearer the 'poles' - if they are adjusted the quads get nearer to 'squares'... The 'flower' at the poles can never approximate a square no matter how small you make it as the angle if subtends at the pole is fixed by the number of segments the lines of latitude have - the more segments the less square the 'petals'...quadsphere.skp

                                          Bug Alert
                                          I just discovered an issue where the Hidden property of triangulated quads might get lost when you copy / import a quad face mesh into a model with existing scenes. In some cases the mesh can be recovered by using the Sandbox To Quads and then updating the scenes - but there is a potential for losing the Quad definition of the mesh.

                                          Issue logged at: https://bitbucket.org/thomthom/quadface-tools/issue/57/hidden-property-is-lost-when-activating

                                          Will find a solution to this. Might end up reverting back to the old way of defining Quads. Sorry for the inconvenience this might cause.
