    I see what you're doing. I guess I wouldn't use guide lines (c-lines) for that in the first place. Guides are intended as temporary lines and not as geometry. Presumably you have made a component or group of the drawer front and bottom and so on. A simple left to right Selection box dragged around the c-lines for the drawer side will select them without problem. and then a keyboard shortcut can be used to make the group or better, a component.

    Perhaps you should start with a much simpler example while you learn to use Follow Me. In short, for what you've see from both Cotty and TIG, the center of the circle is on the center line of the profile and perpendicular to the profile's center line. The radius is really unimportant. Just get it centered.

    Chris and TIG, many thanks for the replies! As per your advice, I tried up-scaling the model to 1000 times it's actual size, and the empty triangles stopped appearing. The only leak solid inspector shows now is the open side of the head, which will go away once I mirror the other half of the head and merge them. Thanks again!

    @krisidious said: .rbz files are extensions which must be installed from within sketchup at the preferences>extensions> menu. Go to this menu and click install extension... browse to the file and select. also you might consider getting the new "SCF Plugin Store" It's a plugin offered here at the site that searches, installs and removes plugins and extensions right from inside sketchup. Thank you so much. Your answer was "Grade A" and "Most Excellent".

    Nope you were right when you said I was overthinking, the scripts merged, and I am able to use both. However thanks for the input. Learn something everytime I write here.

    I did the same thing... When I was an admin/moderator whatever I was getting into political arguments in the bar and thought it unbecoming for someone of authority to be waving around flags or personal opinions. Strangely though, I pretty much stopped doing it after I resigned my post. Perhaps, like me, he'll stick around even without the title. Hope so.

    My first thought was a combination of Joint Push Pull (thickening option) and Round Corner, did you try this?

    Yes, as far as I know, often that coming from some render camera settings. There is also a plugin to remove that if you can't get rid of it in other ways. http://www.smustard.com/script/FixAspectRatio

    I don't see any clipping with the model and it doesn't seem to be too far from the origin. Your units are pretty small for the size of the model. .01 precision in millimeter is probably a little small. I would think in metric you would be ok with just 1.0 millimeter precision. this might help.

    Irrespective of your day-to-day default-browser, SketchUp always uses the OS's defacto browser when making many of its dialogs [that is IE for PC and Safari for MAC]. Setting that browser's permissions oddly will affect all kinds dialogs - from the 3dWH/EW to plugins using web-dialogs as their GUIs... So do not be overly restrictive in its 'options'. For example Javascript must be properly enabled in the options to allow most dialogs to work correctly. If you experience further issues then you could also look at clearing the IE/Safari cache, and reopening the effected dialog - because old versions of 'html' code etc can get recycled by that browser, instead of the using the latest pages etc...

    Jerry, no. I don't make the cutting plane a component. It must be in the same context as the geometry you want it to cut so as to leave a face at the cut surface. If you open one of the components with the cutting plane for editing and select all of the geometry, you should be able to do the Intersect Faces>With Selection thing with no problem.

    Thanks Kaas. I have worked it out. I have a skydome in the model and although it does not interrupt the view in sketchup it hides it when exporting. Switched it off and all is well. Simple, but took me a few hours to work it out.... First time I have used a skydome in a long while.
