TIG gave you the right information about the membership. @dhlscape said: The PathCopy extension in the SU warehouse is not compatible with my 2021 version It may not be listed as compatible but it works just fine in SketchUp 2021. [image: x6Um_copy.gif] @dhlscape said: but sketchUcation has a JHS Powerbar plugin called Copy Along Path that I'd like to get. FWIW, Copy ALong Path is available separately, too.

Hi Rich O Brien Thanks for the Information. I tried and it works thanx a lot and have a nice day

@dave r said: I don't see the fading guides but I do see that your model is positioned away from the origin. I've moved it close to the origin. See if you still get that same behavior. [attachment=3:faw7qei1]<!-- ia3 -->Untitled.skp<!-- ia3 -->[/attachment:faw7qei1] Also make sure the 1660 graphics card is actually being used to display SketchUp. Window>Preferences>OpenGL>Grpahics Card Details. While we're thinking about graphics cards, go to the Nvidia site and download the latest drivers for that card and install them. By the way, I fixed some incorrect tag usage. All edges and faces should be created and remain untagged. [attachment=2:faw7qei1]<!-- ia2 -->Screenshot - 8_31_2021 , 10_39_27 PM.png<!-- ia2 -->[/attachment:faw7qei1] I also purged unused stuff from the model. [attachment=1:faw7qei1]<!-- ia1 -->Screenshot - 8_31_2021 , 10_39_44 PM.png<!-- ia1 -->[/attachment:faw7qei1] I noticed that you have Length Snapping enabled. It would be a good idea to turn that off. Having it on is a good way to induce errors into your model. And thanks for updating your profile. That info helps us help you and it's nice to be able to just look it up when we need to know it. Ooh, i didnt have issue with your file, no fading guideline. I will do as you did and see what happen. But i dont know about Length Snapping, plz tell me.Btw how to fix incorrect tag [image: 2YVx_Capture.PNG]

Excellent image Katheryn. These high entourage models can get quite challenging. I do post stuff from time to time in the gallery. Most of it nowadays is just for fun to keep from forgetting how to do the SU and rendering stuff. Lost my old job that was the reason to learn SU several years ago. Shake up after a company merger imagine that .

Thanks for your reply

@gilliganu said: I think your documentation assumes users are psychic. Let me assure you that VERY few are! Your? Surely you mean 'the' or 'their'? sketchucation.com and sketcup.com are not only different domains but also different entities

@gilliganu said: I don't read the manual when I start using another, I just jump in and check the help file if I have an issue. Your long string of questions makes that obvious. You could go to learn.sketchup.com and go through the SketchUp fundamentals. You could also spend some time going through the Square One videos @gilliganu said: One question: Is it actually possible to disable the stickiness function? No. That's done by creating groups or components to contain the geometry.

Perhaps spending some time learning the basics would help you. https://learn.sketchup.com/

PEBKAC?

You must display the subtitles to watch the tutorial in English or Spanish. This tutorial, a little old but still valid, explains how to give dimensions with the push pull tool and also how to resize lengths. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulBgv3y2vno

@unknownuser said: I WANT IT 2D TO 3D What version of SketchUp are you really using? Your profile indicates a version that does not exist. If you would share the correct information with us we would know what tools you have available to you and we could guide you properly.

If the tool doesn't have a preserve UVs function then your out of luck. Vertex Tools 2 would allow you to bend via its Falloff Selection and preserve the UVs

Posting your model will help the Flowify experts to help you. It’s also best to save your model back to an earlier SketchUp version before posting ( SU 8 ) . More can help then.

It's hard to determine volume of a space when the face normals are irregular.

Thank you, but I found an extension that holds some promise, TIG's image Trimmer https://danieltal.com/image-trimmer-part-1/ and https://danieltal.com/image-trimmer-extension-part-2-face-camera/ http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=293677#p293677 Cheers!

if name of the plugin "Deep Make unique", is available in the context menu, and only when there are more than one components in the project.

Dave, thanks for replying. I realized the problem isn't making a jpg from a skp. The jpg export is perfect. I'm having the "dirty" image after importing the jpg into a CorelDraw file and then exporting it as a pdf.

@hornoxx said: ok, if I understand correctly the process is now familiar to you - the trick is of course (as described above by Box and Tig) to save this new SetUp as your new used default template. exactly

Also be aware that edits can break a curve apart into individual segments, losing its original identity as a single curve. In that situation pushpull will generate unsoftened edges from each segment end. You can use the eraser tool to soften them afterward.
