A quicker method is to grab the top line with the move tool and move it to the intersection . You can use the arrow keys to make it easier to lock the direction. Creates your mitre in two clicks without the need to erase anything.

Great plugin! Agreed, multiple configurations would be great. Also the ability to use custom sections would be brilliant. Keep up the great work Didier

Are you looking to add several other layers such insulation and surface finishes ie. screed in the future?

Are brick and block walls a possibility yet Nathaniel? Other multi layered wall types would be great. I had a go at tweaking configurations a while back but couldn't seem to get anything to work as I wanted. It would be a great addition to the traditional framing wall types

I've found it works in theory but never the way I want it to. If you alter your wall (i.e. path) everything resets and you have to recut all the components again. I also group all my windows and doors which also creates problems with the cutting tool and it doesn't work. I'm sure you can get them to play better but it'll mean altering my workflow. I currently use Mike brightman's and it just doesn't work. I, like yourself would like to know the best method for using both tools for multilayered walls in architecture.

So depressing. Where to now? Any breakaway developers fancy going down the open source rip off route? Surely the SketchUp team are disillusioned with it all too?

Would this work? https://extensions.sketchup.com/en/content/material-resizer

...ability to choose color for your section planes

That already exists.

People will whine and complain no matter how many new features they add.

Being able to use patterns would be a better feature and one I would get alot of is from.

Would it be possible for people to post their templates or layer structures on here for comparison? It would be really interesting to see what different people do.
