What Is Stitch?
Stitch is a collection of small tools that let you interact with terrain properties in a local, granular way.
Most other Landshape commands are made to control entire areas, in batch.
Stitch enables you to zoom in and polish individual local details.
Some users half-jokingly refer to this as terrain "micromanagement".
Inspect Terrain Topology
When hovering the cursor over terrain, Stitch shows a nice highlight of your local terrain topology.
Toggle Fences
Stitch can toggle Fencing in existing edges. To toggle, hover cursor over an edge, and click it.
Note
Currently, stitch is a fairly primitive tool. In the future, Holygon plans to add flip diaogal, collapse vertex , vertex add, and more.
Read Statusbar and VCB for Details
- When Stitch is active, Sketchup's statusbar will show the current state and options. Read the statusbar carefully.
- The VCB and its label shows any current parameters. Right after a Stitch commit, try typing different values and hit
Enterto control the Stitch effect. - To explore the tool, open a new sandbox model. Plot-quake a random terrain. Then try Stitch on it. Don't be afraid to play around!
