Thanks "Box" I went in and looked but did not find anything. however there was a group of guides that i had that had a ridiculously large bounding box around them nested withing the group I was in. i just moved the group of guides, then started a new group of the objects i was resizing -- now the bounding box is where it should be thanks!!!

Very nice. Thank you!

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?

yes it would....

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!
