    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?

    First place I would check would be your export options dialog box to make sure the settings are similar in 13 to what you had been using in 8. If this doesn't fix the export, then you might check to see if the lines are really not there as sometimes their color properties in autocad match the color of your screen background and it looks like the drawing is empty. Try opening your empty drawing in autocad and doing a select all. you will quickly see in the dialog box how many entities it has found. next type in properties from the command prompt and change the color properties to a different color and see if that lights them up. best wishes, Chad

    Deleting the podium walker file worked - I am a commercial Architect and I have trusted sketch up since version 3, you address me as frustrated, in your view unduly, however, I didn't expect to learn the inner workings of my O.S to keep shoddy programs working and the answer I received was 3 hours later in which time I had missed my clients and could not open my files. Podium forum is renowned for non answered posts that's why I posted here. Your remarks where the next day ! I've now learnt to delete and re-install plug ins and delete and re-install Sketch - up and generally be cautious with any ruby scripts because you never know which one is going to continually cause problems - that's fine, it doesn't mention that in the sales pitch funnily enough and I urge anyone who has commercial responsibilities to think twice before installing walker and any ruby unless you know how to get back to the basic program.

    Managed to retrieve it thanks, although I don't have a 'virtual store' as such, but I looked in AppData and searched the folders there. Still strange though, as to why it had been placed there. I have created other component folders since and they all appear. My understanding is that Windows uses virtualisation when the software creating the file is deemed to be not up to par?

    Free vector file STL & OBJ exporters work on Free/Make... BUT these are NOT importable into Inkscape There might be a free SVG exporter which would then be importable into Inkscape ? http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=52949 http://code.google.com/p/sketchup-svg-outline-plugin/ etc ?? Or you could perhaps print out from the SKP as a PDF... Then import that into Inkscape ?

    Yes, I've been trying that myself. Further investigation has shown that is I set the scene manager to 'detail' (previously it was set to 'list') this seems to work. However, the files already effected by the problem will not re-open (the position they were last saved at being a view with complex shadows). At present we think it could be a clash with other software. I am continuing with the project re-building from a previous model (I'll lose about 5 hours work) with these new settings & save, save, save! In the mean time, if anyone has any other suggestions...

    @caronte01 said: ...Apple has moved away from discrete graphics for all entry level hardware, and only offers it on 15" macbooks, and some imacs, but not on their line of macbook air, or mac minis, or even on their 13" retina macbook. Intel graphics are imo inferior to even entry level nvidia cards, esp. for sketchup work. It's shame indeed... Honestly, if machine needs to be good with CUDA, maybe macbook pro is not the ideal choice as they GPU's have fairly limited RAM (512MB to 1GB). Not sure what's with next Mac Pro, looks like it will have state-of-the-art AMD FirePro GPU cards, so no CUDA there too (from published images it looks like one simple cannot swaps those to nvidia cards).

    This is happening to me and it's not permissions. Will save a file have worked on for days and I get a message file doesn't exist. This will happen in a sessions that I already saved the file a few times. Have to use save as. Then I see file 0.skp, 1.skp, .... Eventually saves. Sometime I keep trying and it works. Thought it was only imported files but now happeneng to some of my old files. Then thought it was because I was saving while rendering but that was it either.

    I just noticed something strange. I just copied my kmz to a new folder that did not have the image folder as a sub-folder and it no longer displays the images. Can someone else please verify whether the longer version http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=cf8544f0c3074395dfd89dd71a555b12 displays all of the photos as per the YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fM1oBDw08x4 My image links used to be eg. images/pic1.jpg. I changed them to ../images/pic1.jpg based on a forum post I read about a change to GE that was apparently made with GE6. I wonder if that could be the problem.

    what kind of model did you submit to the 3D Warehouse? Is this for Google Earth? If so, perhaps you ought to contact the Google Earth folks instead.

    Found the problem after 3 hours of searching. It was one single filename with part of the name "delfin" but the "i" was accented instead of a dot. It was in the jpg file name plus in the doc.kml file that referenced it. Methinks (Trimble) need to fix their meaningless message so people have some idea what the problem is. The big problem is I was first getting an error message relating to latitude and longitude. The message then changed but the problem remained the same, which is is confusing to say the least. The finished version is here: http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=cf8544f0c3074395dfd89dd71a555b12

    Components on to faces by Chris Fullmer [image: yaOq_grebus.jpg] You can also make your volume with a component "cube" then replace the component cube by a component sphere! Random (or not) Replace Component by Sdmitch can help you for some variations! Ps You can see also this molecule importer!
