Just in case you missed it.
TIG did mentioned the way to change that behavior in earlier reply.I had indeed missed it. Thanks.
Line number to insert code has changed to 337.
Works fine.
I assume that you are enjoying that as much as I am!
Just in case you missed it .

The updated version just released seems a bit different than sneakpeak.
anyway I can contribute to feedbacks?
Beautiful TIG!
I will try it out as soon as I can!
I thought you were gonna sleep on it 
I can't possible understand everything that you described, but there is no urgency in this. So, I wouldn't mind letting your genius brain do its magic.
I've also noticed upon undo with fillet tool, it adds extra undos in case of fillet radius value change. I do not know if that was an intended behavior, but I find it a bit odd. Maybe that's something that ties with your methodology?
Thank you TIG. 
phew,
Thanks for your diligence TIG.
if your LayerWatcher is the cause, SketchUp should investigate Trimble connect as well. Because it was causing issue as well.
I'll keep an eye on this space.
I was actually able to do what you have requested.
It took me a while since I had little more than 90 extensions to go through.
(yeah, probably too many. but that's after brief clean up)
found two that are suspected as culprits:
su_trimble_connect
TIG-LayerWatcher
I have the version of your LayerWatcher updated in 2015/08/02 which i believe is the most recent.
And the su_trimble_connect is the most recent version as well. (confirmed in EW)
I am not 100% sure they are the cause, I will keep testing without those two running.
I will try that soon when I get some time on my hands.
Thank you so much TIG.
I suppose I can make some kind of GIF or video of crashing. But I think it won't help much as you won't be able to get to the bottom of it?
Would it be better if i can send you the error log?
sorry, I actually have posted one with attachments, but realized the same steps weren't producing the bug splat. (with rate of 2 out of 5)
Its so strange I get this but splat in multiple machines, but i cannot nail down the exact steps to reproduce.
I crashed it with the same steps more than 5 times, but once it won't.
I suppose you have to try couple of times if it doesn't give you the splat.
Steps that I found are:
Open "TEST.skp"
activate Fillet - 2D Tools
The input radius should already be set to 2000mm (seems like this saves with the file)
fillet all four corners as shown in "TEST.jpg"
undo.
undo.
undo.
Crash.
In my case, the crash will happen at first undo most of the time.
if it doesn't crash, it would actually undo all fine.
Can you repeat this steps couple times just in case it doesnt crash the first time?
I was able to crash 4 out of 5.
I'm starting to think it might have to do with my clicks (maybe mis-clicking the edge and clicking on the face) or the set of orbits or zooms I do in between commands.
Let me save up a file and send you to make sure we have identical setup.
Thank you for looking into this.
TIG,
As I have stated in the SketchUp forum I get bug splats when I perform 2D Tools - Fillet.
I do not know exact trigger, but I am able to replicate the result with just two lines.
the steps would be:
either the first undo, or second, you will crash the sketchup and get bug splat.
Thank you for putting effort in this plugin, it really is a great one otherwise.

Fredo's Hover Select has an option to "Extend selection to cofacial and aligned edges". It works to do a loop select on clean quads. Another option would be a script that I think Jim or TIG helped me with a while back called Select Edges by Z. You can pick an edge and run the script and it will pick all other edges on that Z coordinate.
Thanks for the extension that you have included.
would it be possible to tweak it to just include "connected edges"?
was this issue addressed afterwards? I am still seeing it happen.

I did not write the toolset - I simply adjusted some lines to make it >=v2014 compatible
However, if you edit the file floating_camera in the Plugins folder using Notepad++ and find these lines starting at line#77:
@@q_render_opts = Hash[ "ModelTransparency" => **false**, "EdgeType" => 0, "EdgeDisplayMode" => 1, "EdgeColorMode" => 1, "DrawSilhouettes" => false, "DrawDepthQue" => false, "DrawHidden" => false, "DrawLineEnds" => false, "ExtendLines" => false, "JitterEdges" => false, "DisplayDims" => false, "HideConstructionGeometry" => true, "MaterialTransparency" => **false**, "ShowViewName" => false ] @@q_shadow_info = Hash[ "DisplayOnAllFaces" => false, "DisplayShadows" => false ] @@q_degrade_opts = Hash[ "Texture" => **false**, "TransparencySort" => **0**, "DisplayFog" => false ]
and adjust the appropriate values,false>>>trueetc, in the Hash then it will change things like transparency settings...
I have emboldened a few of the likely suspects...
Thats great. Thank you so much TIG.
Seems though that all transparency settings become 0 upon activating the tool.
I believe my hardwares are good enough to maintain both transparency and the smooth transition. Would there be a way to set this setting off?

Yes, but this particular plugin is scrambled so only the creator can make that change.
In the mean time, maybe this will help. You can copy and paste into the Ruby Console to try it out.
mod = Sketchup.active_model

> edgs.each{|e|
> p,v=e.line
> grp=ent.add_group;ge=grp.entities
> tube=ge.add_ngon(p,v,r,n)
> face=ge.add_face(tube)
> ent.transform_entities(Geom;;Transformation.rotation(p,v,d.degrees),face)

Thank you so much, this helped for me at least this time.
I had to remove "grp.explode" line as I wanted them to be a grouped members.
who is the creator of this plugin? I know it has been tossed around couple times.
(I will still need an option to use "mm" units, follow welded edges as solid)
would it be possible to have the rectangular grille tool generate the geometry inside the group that's being edited?
it always jumps to outside of the group and having me to cut and paste back in.
