    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?

    Taff, Thanks, I was in the process of taking a educated swing at it; just hoping that someone knew off hand. Currently, the dxf file I import is a simple entity file of 3dfaces(no blocks, etc.) and it imports into Su as a component with the file name. I am guessing that blocks may be treated as components, and was setting up a test to see if I was right. The fact is that my knowledge of dxf is very weak and while my original translator works, it was designed more by brute force them finesse. I looked at your file and I see lots of stuff in it that I do not use (or know how to use), but will take your approach if mine fails. Uploading stuff below: [image: gY1Q_Temp111.jpg]

    Hi folks. Just in case you did not saw the tutorial where this was shown, you can use a double inference from two adjacent sides of a rectangle (or square) to get its center. The procedure is as follow: 1 - Find the inference from the midpoint of one side. Wait for the pop-up to appears. 2 - Immediately find the inference from one of the midpoint of one of the adjacent sides. Wait for the pop-up. 3 - Move roughly where the center should be. You shall see inference lines to both choosen midpoints. This is the center you want. Just ideas.

    I looked at it a little further, and the odd thing is that it happens with only one file. And the error read "Please enter an integer between 1 and 99"(normally the max. is 20). Funny. Anssi

    I've had this before where a perfectly good looking view is subsequently rendered buggy by the addition of geometry to the model that should otherwise not cause shadow problems. Have you tried cutting a section plane in front the visible objects but behind the "camera" to essentially eliminate anything behind the camera casting a shadow on the camera.

    I think so. The problem occurs in 2 situations. One is a totally opaque round tube. The other is on 3d cars which I've "painted" w/ a translucent white so they're sort of ghosty. I believe the cars do, indeed, have the white color on both sides of each face. I'll keep that in mind though to double check. -Brodie

    Yes, plot-aris seems to be right ! After many experiences on this fact during my works, the zoom is completely dependant on where is the cursor ! When you're too far from your model and you point on a empty space with the cursor, the zoom is too slow...point on a part of your model and is getting faster. When you're closer to your model, if you point on a empty space with the cursor, the zoom goes too fast and the "camera" goes behind your object...still pointing on your model and the zoom will be slower until the camera goes behind it ! But that's right, it's a little boring sometimes when you're working on small parts of a big model, or in wireframe mode !!

    Then there is the CentrePoint plugin from Smustard that will create a guide point for you. Select the circle, Plugins -> Set center point, then dimension to the guide point.

    It's quite odd that Google hasn't pushed this more but maybe they are watching for a while to see how it works... Or they are just implementing this "routinely" now for all their online services... Or - and that's where my earlier comment came from - they are going to make this a major part of SU7 (direct synchronizing and versioning - and maybe other "social" features) and are waiting for an announcement there... Or maybe there's just an innovation-fatigue with Google where people just don't notice all the new features anymore...

    In the meanwhile, Jakob (Plot Pris) has also joined as a collaborator. I also made some changes - there were some typos in the description - see the history page how it records the revisions [image: qJWB_ScreenShot019.jpg]

    Hi Hannsen, I'm so sorry that I didn't respond to you earlier. I started a response, but I must have forgotten to hit "Submit". There is one more thing I can think of to try. In addition to deleting the com.google.sketchuppro.plist, could you also delete the com.AtLast.sketchup.plist (assuming you have one). Does that help? If not, contact the technical support folks at Google using http://sketchup.google.com/gsu6/support.html. Are you, by any chance, using a localized version of the product? I guess that could be another potential source of the problem. Best, Tricia

    Thanks, Pilou, I tried the Ruby on a couple of the stones in the model and it looks like it will work pretty well. I may have to experiment a bit to get it just right. Thanks again, Tom

    Are you printing straight from SU or are you creating an image file from the model first? I suggest you create a image file (Jpeg) and then you can check the text size on the image
