    Make it a component and save it to a component collection, then select and place it from the component panel whenever you need it.

    Hey guys I am desperate for very high resolution/quality satellite maps, I use Placemaker and I also use Nearmap but the resolution is not that great, I have tried using AI to upscale but that too does not really solve my issues. Is there another solution?

    You could also go on to Layout and have more control over .dwg export, and less control... but you could use the layers there. Kenny's method is better...

    @box said: There are many ways, but you might need to be more specific about what you need. Rich's tutorial on the very basics may be enough to get you going. http://sketchucation.com/resources/tutorials/beginner/24-how-to-make-a-spiral-stair Then again you could make the stairs straight and use shape bender to curve it. http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=clf_shape_bender_v055 Or have a go with one of the Stair Maker plugins http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=gkware_stairmaker http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=Stair_Maker and a simple one using Fredo's Radial Bend, part of Fredo Scale. Thanks BOX All of them are usefull to me

    I am using a RevitLT / SketchUp workflow. I've tried all manner of programs and in the end settled on RevitLT. The documentation is what sells it for me - grids, schedules, tags for windows and doors, etc. That being said, nothing rivals SkecthUp for the 3D modeling of odd stuff and all the possibilities of presentation. I model everything I can in RevitLT and export the file as an acis solid dwg. This imports into SketchUp without any problems with all the Revit objects becoming components or groups. What doesn't happen is the importing of the textures. I do the texture application in SketchUp. This isn't as onerous as it sounds. I use Simlab for 3D pdfs from SketchUp and find it quite useful. I can't use the Revit plugin as LT doesn't support plugins so I can't comment on that. Not a perfect workflow but pretty good. KrisM

    Does it look the same if you use layers for the control of the visibility?

    Thanks for the explanation. I did wonder what it is you are drawing. I'd never have guessed it was for a musical instrument. Cheers.

    The clipping plane is actually not recognized on the visualization service ... So it looks much complicated. Thanks a lot anyway !
