This sounds brilliant Adam. Great to see that a BIM software function is possible within Sketchup.

Ok, thank you ! It's so hard to play with screen dimension in SU... But I headed for solution ! Thank you all !

Im pretty sure such a plugin doesnt exist, and itd be a cool one to have, so if anyone can be bothered...

Red Herring: My shortcuts problem was a different bug. I was trying to map the "add scene" command, which is a known bug. You have to tweak the registry to fix it. CB.

Thanks Tavi, must check that out

Thanks for the replies everyone.

Take a look at Didiers side. There are scripts, deleting edges or faces. I' m not in the office so I can`t take a search for it.

Merci Didier The dll file is located in the folder, despite some wrong written word I corrected, I've still this message so I'm little bit disappointed.. J'ai bien l'extension dll présente dans le répertoire. J'ai eu un doute au départ car dans le fichier lens_correction.rb, la routine undistdll.dll était appelée UndistDLL.dll,mais après correction j'obtiens le même résultat.

Hi Sketchy, Did you progress this idea at all? I'm looking for a automated process for splitting a large urban model into individual tiles. Cheers

Hello to you all, I can see this technic develop in something great were you can draw on your desktop with a reflective tape stuck on your fingertips.(or IR reflective nailpolisch ) Or drawing on your dektop with a infrared-tip pen. Its looks to me like a very promising development. I could manipulating objects for example in sketchy physics with two hands. At last i could solve part of my mikado game. http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=37b7a190d6d2a16dc5d54ad137209c7f Greetings Bep van Malde

Ok !! Thanks to both of you (Soory for the translation !!)

if you select open and un-check "always ..." still has the problem ? usually this appears when MIME setup is wrong

I took a look in the model.options list, and nothing there looks promising (I didn't expect it to, since what you want aren't really model options. If I have a chance, I'll do some more checking tomorrow, but I don't expect positive results...

You are right, It destroys my faces... well it splits them into triangles but they stay planar... so I just have to delete the created lines manually. I can live with that But the bad thing is that rounding coordinates does not solve the problem I have... It seems to be a known bug! It happens with complex models when you often change the axes with the axis tool. I need some way to re-align edges to the axes (even their start and end-points are (almost) exactly on one axis, they are not recognised so)

thanks also remus!!

Observers.... I've never used these tools... I will try Thank you Rick !

Thanks! Meanwhile, I am collecting the suggestions...

Thank you Alex.
