@jhonpayboll said: I´m having some trouble logging in to the sketchucation plugin store. Also I can´t search within the extension manager window. In both cases I press log in/search and nothing happens, any thoughts? thanks! Try going into Internet Explorer and emptying the cache, this might help with the SketchUp launched PluginStore dialog... If you mean the 'Plugin Store' accessed via your web browser, then try the same cache-clear, but in whatever browser you normally use [Chrome, Firefox etc]. By 'Extension Manager' I assume you really mean the 'Extension Warehouse' - which is Trimble's baby ?? For that you need to be pre-logged in with a gmail account... Try doing that beforehand... Also check your system settings and Internet Options to ensure javascript etc is enabled and nothing is overly 'strict' !

Tig, thank you for the workaround in your PM... it worked fine! (I had already poked around in that file with N++, but couldn't see anything obvious. ) Just FYI, this is a work laptop and we have a pretty unusual "website whitelist" security setup that I guess must be blocking the pings. (I can't PM yet or I might send you slightly more info, except it would probably be irrelevant for the next version anyway.) P.s. If you want me to test something relating to this just let me know.

That's it.

Indeed, I have only a Intel G33/G31 Chipset Video Card.

Thanks again - much appreciated - will remember to Jordan the tongue on the next one...

Apply textured images onto the face itself, not the group/component. Edit the group to get into its geometry... Plain materials applied directly onto a 'container' work fine as no UVmapping is needed, but to get good results apply textured materials onto faces, you can then edit the placement etc in the context-menu item 'Texture'...

Three videos on how to close a hole! Awesome!

If the inner part is truly separate you can triple click it and delete. As you say it is a solid,I assume that it is separate.

Why didn't you ask your real question in the first place?

You can also posts Sketchup files.

Ok! I finaly found the solution. I saw on a forum that the problem comes from the fact I have 2 screens (1 DVI, 1 VGA). Just unplugged the second screen, launch SU... replugged and now it's working properly. Sorry for the inconvenience!

On PCs... if there is a folder named ' Plugins' inside the special subfolder C:\ProgramData\SketchUp\SketchUp 2014 then that is added to the $: [aka $LOAD_PATH] and then as SketchUp starts its contents [if any] are auto-loaded for ANY user... However, the AutoInstall tool of SketchUp will always use the User's own 'Roaming' Plugins folder! BUT using the AutoInstaller in the SketchUcation PluginsStore's dialog [or its Archive Installer menu item] will see that additional folder and prompt you to select the main Plugins folder OR that 'shared-folder' as the installation's destination - thus allowing an AutoInstall into any selected folder...

If your 'cut' is through tiny geometry (which result in edges <1/1000" long), then there'll probably be problems... What are you cutting ? Very finely faceted surfaces, branches, leaves etc will cause issues... More details = more advice...

As far as 1001bit goes, it may be set to pop up that message even if there've been no changes to its toolbar. I don't use it so I don't know for sure.

i tried in firefox, google chrome, seamonkey, internet explorer 11, and directly through sketchup, always i get same error, and yes i'm logged with my gmail account while i try to download/install plugin.

Most dogs, including mine, do not have the slightest idea that they are any different from us. Looks like it passes the test!! That was my plan also was to make a side table. Oh well, nice job on the design though. Tell your brother good job on the construction too. Now wonder it looks so good... [image: 6kB2_084.JPG]

Maybe you can find useful Axes tools by Thomthom when Axis of object(s) is anywhere inside the object(s)!

FWIW, I didn't have to do any of that. All I did is what I described. The image you imported was already set as 'Projected' so sampling it and applying it to the surfaces inside the component did the trick. Not nearly so many steps as Pilou used.
