      Me too. Strange, that it did not freeze, it worked, finally it made it - just in one and a half ours. I worked in two files that time, it was exactly the same. I am happy now that it works again:)

        Fredo, is it possible to add ability to assign (globally ) front face materials to corresponding back faces AND preserve front faces texture coordinates?

          In principle, the UV are mirrored on the backface.

          Can you first try FredoTool:ReverseOrientFace to see if this does the job with the good mirroring on the back face.

            In my tests your ReverseOrientFace is completely OK on transferring UV's when flipping.
            Does it mean you potentially could add my request to ThruPaint or ReverseOrientFace?
            Off-topic Minor issue: In ReverseOrientFace I can't make make tooltips work (they are enabled and SU restarted)

              Just to be sure, you want a very unusual behavior, which is that the UV on the other side of the face are different.

              In Sketchup, ThruPaint, etc... the flipping of faces or the painting on both sides of a face keeps the UV identical (so that if the material is transparent, you see only one texture).

                In simple words I need singe click solution that'd take everything I see on front and apply in exact manner to the back (no matter what happens currently on the back, it will be replaced with front textures).
                Theoretically ThruPaint is good if you'd start from the scratch and use TruPaint exclusively all the way.

                  Do you have an example. I am still not sure of what you want.

                    The same components with the same material applied, but with randomized UV's..
                    Is it theoretically possible in current SU? Maybe some trick thru dynamic components?

                      Still not clear...
                      Component instances behave the same when you paint their elements. And there is no control of UV when you paint their instances.

                        Why is there a limit for only 5000 faces interactively refreshed while manipulating with the texture? Sometimes it's not possible to see interactive results on high poly meshes.

                        Here is a GIF as an example

                          I could increase the limit, as apparently machines become more powerful.

                          Still, what it means that you can preview the 5000 faces around the face where you manipulate the gizmo. So It should be sufficient to see what is going on.

                            I think my GIF screen record above shows that in some cases it's not so comfortable to see what is going on when we've got a highpoly surface. Did you see it? Of course I can make a position of texture I need in other ways. But I was just interested about why did you do such a limitation and ask if it's ok if you could allow us to increase this value.

                              As you show in the GIF video, the interactivity of the transformation is slowed down when you use a high number of faces.
                              It's OK for increasing the number, but you may then suffer from a lag as you play with the gizmo.

                                my Thrupaint only has pink node for uniform scale?

                                  The non uniform scaling is only available when you paint with the Quad Mesh UV or the Project UV modes, not with the Natural mode.

                                      Is this plugin still available? It doesn't come up with any search.

                                        TruPaint is now installed as part of FredoTools. See first post above, and read down towards the bottom, or go look for FredoTools.

                                        For that matter I don't know if the search is working right on the store, but you can find FreodTools in a full listing of Fredo6 plugins in the search

                                            What 'downlink' ?
                                            https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=FredoTools
                                            works fine...
                                            You do need to be logged in to the PluginStore ??
