goods great, does Grow Face By Angle work for multi-face selection, for example, if two, or three un-connect faces are selected, how about n-gon?

Great question. right now it works with multi-face Selection that is connected only. ngons will work. im looking to improve the selection to inclue un-connected faces as well.
