@panixia thanks

Overhang is 45 so no support needed, support at ideamaker gave me a gcode for xy and it worked good To be honest the raise 3d machines can’t compete with the bambus

The spooks are gone... ? What the Freaky Friday etc. Better call Scummy and Mouldy.

@MLUY you could select all the geometry and do the same thing. You'll only soften edges in which the angle between face normals is less than or equal to the angle set in the Soften Edges panel.

@TIG thank you

Thank you @Glenn-at-home

@alskaro do you mean something like this? As TIG says, apply whatever materials you want to the various faces in the SectionCut Face. [image: 1761569581070-uniflow-steam-engine-cut-away-small-resized.png]

@Mike-Amos Yep. Agreed, many of the tutorial videos are so fast.... not well organized, messy... this is the way I learned the Blender modeling: Targeted the toolbars, I see in Layout and Editing UI, read the document, learned one tool at a time. (if needed, watched Youtube), moved to the next tool. Otherwise, it takes ages and seems hard (and it is to be honest). If they also do not adopt the new trend, I think will vanish as well.

You got that far, extra cookie score +20.

If you are referring to a license for extensions we sell. Then yes you can. Licenses have a number of seats, usually 3, so you can activate on up to 3 devices at a time. You can manage seats at https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php

Much appreciated thanks

I was able to make it work at the fascia+soffit type = vertical + Horizontal at the hip roof. Trying to manipulate the three other types now. [image: 1761190105607-64cf79ea-3cff-40c8-81bb-7cfa8f99f708-image.png]

@Dave-R great, thanks!

I've been enjoying SU2026.

well that worked, where you been all my life, thank you

As it turns out, using the Extension Manager did not really uninstall the Trimble Scan Essentials plugin. However, do to some replies from others, I did get the issue resolved. OK, I finally got everything setup correctly now. It was kind of an awkward process but here is what I did: First I uninstalled 2026 Then I made sure all plugins were up to date in 2025 Then I clicked on the check for update in 2025 Now I ran the update option in 2025 to install 2026 When the process for installing 2026 ran, I deselected the Trimble Scan Essentials, Revit Importer and V-Ray Everything is now running fine and the Trimble Scan Essentials is finally gone and all of my plugins are installed and things are now the way I want them. Once again, I really want to thank everyone (on the SketchUp and SketchUcation forums) for the replies and insight of how to get things going correctly again. As I said in the original post, I have been gone for a while. Now I can get back to using SketchUp (latest version) again.

thank you good work
