So they skip 2004 versions?! It must be pretty advanced then! 😄

You can do that already.

I use my own custom external loader - loading from my Dropbox folder.

Exactly my first thought 😉

[highlight=#ffffbf:1y72mcn5]The idea for future versions is to lock with password functions or layers just as in Excel or other software and restrain access (protect)[/highlight:1y72mcn5]

Hello

This topic is a wish for the future versions .

When , for example , you work with EXCEL , it's possible to protect the cell with a password .
Everybody can use your file , but nobody can change the protected cells .

if you you can lock a group objet to avoid select him , i think that it should be possible to protect a layer or some entities with a password !

it's the same thing with dynamics components ; you can used them but you cannot make change with the free soft

Not in Sketchup. There are lots of other applications you can export a SketchUp model but that would mean losing a bunch of features, too. Most common would be an interactive, 3D PDF or an online viewer or a walkabout "game like" application.

What an interesting title you have here. 😆

So...what physical attributes are necessary for mating?

I posted this on the LO wishlist thread also. As of today there are zero comments there. Most people assume as I did (and I think you guys did too) that an aligned view was ortho. It turns out it is not!

This is something that limits workflow. The work arounds are only good for small models and begs the question for a 2d program, "Why would we have to do that in the first place?"

Can you guys make some comments on the LO thread so we can get the attention of the SU Team and they can address this?

Right now, assumption is getting in the way of improvement. 😞

Or Window > Instructor is always a cool way to learn about native tools

For native tools, the shortcuts are listed on the reference card (togehter with all combinations, for paintbucket e.g. shift, ctrl, shift+ctrl, alt), this is helpful for learning them...

Aha…
i never used to select or hide groups in the outliner, because it becomes a bit messy in my works. I assign groups to layers rather to particular names, (like: kitchen cabinets, kitchen lamps, ect. instead to name single instances one by one) for the simple reason-
i do it faster.
However, I'll follow your counsel and try to use the outliner too. Maybe it is a great help, having practice with this tool.

First is FIRST
Please LOCK TOOLBARS

I am looking for this as well...!
Hope someone will make this a ruby...
like angular dimension...
For now...I sketch in top view...up along green axis...
(the text will align to screen...to the right)...
the dimensions is put on one by one...
from midpoint of component to starting point(zero)...
each has text position set at start...
I have an example jpg to show...but do not know how to insert here...
Edit: Thank you Dan for assistance...!
Greetings Jakob.

dimension from zero.jpg

thank you very much for sharing.. 👍

Right.

So that's why I ask what's the difference between the mentioned rotatable north arrow and the solar north tool? Daniel says they took it (rotatable north arrow) from the Pro version.

Thanks! 😉

Very goooood, thank you

Also in reply to Pilou:

.skp file version 6:

Request Triangle face tools v6.skp

Google Section images / SketchUcation
33 800 results 😉

Or try my old 2dTools set, which mimic many CAD tools, including text...

"Program stops"? It crashes?

And at only 1GB? Then it's not a 32bit limitation. As you said, it's way before the 32bit limit. Which normally is at around 2GB. With SU8M1 under a 64bit OS this is now 4GB - because they enable the large address aware flag.

Now, what is the size of the model you have? Faces, edges, groups components etc? The only time I ever ran into such memory usage has been when rendering with V-Ray. Without I have never ever ran into memory limitation with SketchUp. And then I've used models with 2million faces and lots of textures...
