Sorgesu, thanks for the explanation! I am going to implement that.

That works great pbacot, thanks!

Hi Wo3Dan, hi folks. I quitted SU then I changed my decimal separator from the . to the , and the list separator from the , to the ; I restarted SU and it works. I quitted SU and then I reverted back to the . and , and it still works ?!?!?! Strange. Anyway, problem solved. The help is still incorrect unless I goofed somewhere. Best regards.

Thanks.

Thanks Jeff, saved my day Not only did it keep both faces, it also stopped sketchup from crashing at 79%. Problem solved.

Jean Lemire you are a true Gem! You have solved 2 of my head scratchers yesterday, and today I will be much more productive!! Thanks for the good help!! Off to make a new wheel! Mark

It worked! Thanks!!

Do you have an image of what you've reached so far?

Thanks alot. Yes, we have a big family dinner every Sunday evening so we need it!!

Jerry, did this help?

Gerrit is correct. You can't see textures on faces outside of the current context when editing a component or group.

@pbacot said: Looking back to your first post, if a flat blade is what you are after, and the edges can all be coplanar. Do your drawing on a surface, like the face of a rectangle, to help be sure it is coplanar. Make the component after you've done most of your work making the face. Yeah, I think the 2 arcs were not coplanar AND I didn't create a face. It works now. I just got to make it pretty. Thanks for everyone's help,

yes but you have an half chance to take end-end segments / against middle-middle of segments and even end-middle!

@hublan said: Hi Dave- yes there is an intel card and an nvidia card installed on my laptop. jeff Yes, these newer laptops come shipped this way. It's good to have the Intel card for less graphic hungry apps. @hublan said: Thanks again, I appreciate your efforts to answer my question

Thanks, JGB, for reminding me of Curviloft. I've used it for other things but not this. It worked great. Your second solution was beyond my current skill level. Bill
