Thank you for your plugin. Between all of you (plugin´s developers) are going to do of sketchup a software as good or even better than softwares like rhinoceros.

Thomas!

Mate I played around with the plugin for a tree trunk in combination with fredoscale and I ended up with a mass of assigned materials (all the same) when exported to maxwell. I noted this before with Whaat's UV tools (cant remember the name of the plugin).

Funny though it was only for several faces - I'll have to test some more and see what went on there!

I'm not entirely sure, but I'm guessing the Maxwell exporter exported out a texture for each face with a distorted texture.

Where Is the URL for download

It's in the first post.

[pdwyer]

Does this still work with SU8 on windows?

The plugin doesn't start, no menu is created.

[Rich O Brien]

It works perfectly you must have installed it incorrectly.

I use it everyday on v7, v7.1 and v8

[massimo]

Hi pdwyer, I don't have SU 8 so I cannot test it. Anyway the plugin only appears in the context menu so right click on a texture-->UV tools.

[pdwyer]

Ignore me, it is working, just not the UI I was expecting

all good

Hi,
I'm using Sk 8-0-11751 on a mac book pro. Can you point me to the download for the uv tools plugin? Thanks so much.

[Gaieus]

It's attached to the first post with a

icon.
Generally this is the way authors publish and keep their plugins updated here so always look in the first post.

[burningman]

BIG thanks mate!

I have a problem using UVTools. I am new to UV texturing. My current project is a sketchup version of Spaceship Earth from EPCOT. The link to the sketchup file is below. I need to know how to get the texture located in front of the sphere to wrap around the sphere.

Please give me a tutorial as I would like to know how to do this in the future. Any help would be appreciated as I tried looking through this post but Sketchup kept crashing everytime I tried to do it.

Thanks in advance

(would love a youtube video tutorial if anyone has time...it would help us noobs out immensely)

[jumpjack]

I don't understand how to use the plugin.
I installed it,I get the new context menu.
I create a cylynder/sphere, then... what? I create a wall close to it, apply a texture to the wall and use the UV right menu on it?
Nothing happens.

[Frederik]

Why would you install a plugin if you don't know what it is...?
Take a look at some of the posts on page 1 and 2... There's a good tutorial by Alan Fraser...

Try applying a bitmap texture to a sphere or a cylinder...
It's important that it's not just a color but a bitmap texture...
You'll see that the texture looks odd on such shapes...
Now click the sphere to select it...
Right-click it an from the submenu select UV tools and then select i.e. spherical...
You'll see that the texture looks correct now...

Thanks A lot !

Hi All,
Since I use Artisan, I have the need to improve my uv-texturing skills
I want to use the UV-Tools plugin but I don´t get it to run on SketchUp 2013 - I´m certainly
doing anything wrong. The only footprint is the "UVtools.rb"-file (?) but inside SketchUp
I dont´t get any icons or any context menu
I appreciate any help

or SketchUV

Thanks for this awesome plugin Whaat!

[nlipovac]

I use SketchUV and Roadkill, and it works great.
WrapR is in development and it will make unwraping inside SU.
