RED+ commands and where they are

RED+ puts its commands in RED's own menus, where you would look for them, with (RF+) at the end of each name apart from the two in Help. It lists them again in the RED+ menu, which sits on the menu bar just before Help.

A command that is in two places is the same command, and it works the same from either. Some commands are only in the RED+ menu.

Top to bottom. Lines divide the menu into groups: the six lighting commands, the four mesh commands, Classify Holes (RF+), the two Wrap Texture commands, the three follow-light commands, Keyboard Shortcuts (RF+), the two commands also in Help, and Mod (RF+).

Command	Also in	What it does
Relight Changed Lights (RF+)	Level	Relights only the surfaces reached by the lights you changed since the last bake.
Show Lightmap Density (RF+)	View	Outlines every lit face in the Free Look view, coloured by how many lightmap texels it has per unit. On or off.
Inspect Lightmap Seams (RF+)	RED+ menu only	Lists joins between faces whose baked lighting does not match, and takes you to them.
Blend Selected Faces (RF+)	RED+ menu only	Evens out the baked lighting across the joins between the selected faces.
Undo Last Blend (RF+)	RED+ menu only	Puts back the lighting the last blend changed.
Show Emissive Ranges (RF+)	View	Shows the range of every emissive face, not only the selected ones. On or off, saved with the level.
Mesh Library (RF+)	Tools	Browses the meshes with a preview. The one you pick is copied to the clipboard, ready for a mesh's Mesh File box.
Check Mesh Shadows (RF+)	RED+ menu only	Lists every placed mesh and whether it casts a baked shadow, and can repair some of them.
Casts Shadow On for Selection (RF+)	RED+ menu only	Makes the selected meshes and clutter cast baked shadows.
Casts Shadow Off for Selection (RF+)	RED+ menu only	Leaves the selected meshes and clutter out of the baked shadows.
Classify Holes (RF+)	Level	Explains the holes RED's Check for holes finds, and names the brushes around each one.
Wrap Texture Across Edges (RF+)	RED+ menu only	In Texture mode, continues the texture of the face you clicked first across shared edges onto the other selected faces.
Wrap Texture, Strips Along V (RF+)	RED+ menu only	The same, preferring strips along the texture's V direction.
Wire Follow Lights (RF+)	Tools	Builds the events that make a linked light blink in the game, and dims the linked faces' textures with it.
Lock Follow-Light Wiring (RF+)	Tools	Makes Wire Follow Lights leave the selected lights alone.
Unlock Follow-Light Wiring (RF+)	Tools	Removes that lock from the selected lights.
Keyboard Shortcuts (RF+)	Tools	Gives keys to menu commands, and moves RED's built-in viewport keys.
RED+ Website (RedFactionPlus.com)	Help	Opens this site in your browser.
Check for RED+ Updates	Help	Shows the message `This RED+ package is the editor only, so it does not check for updates.`
Mod (RF+)	File	A list of the folders in the game's mods folder. Choosing one restarts the editor with that mod.

Show Lightmap Density (RF+) and Show Emissive Ranges (RF+) show a tick while they are on, in both menus.
