This tool is very important, if you want to tweak your textures in sketchup or in your vis-programm.
- select the tool
- click on a face to make its material unique
What happens:
- the tool retrieves the material name of the selected (picked) face
- it creates a copy of this material in the material table
- it updates the saved material table
- and assigns this new material to the pocked face
Now you can
- assign one material to a set of faces ( for example steps)
- make the materials uniq step by step, so it has the same texture, but the angle, for example, can be tweaked separately.
Very useful for curved stairs, for example, since now you can tweak your textures independently per step in your vis-program.
