    @Rich-O-Brien Thanks Rich. Now I know that I can share the link with Fredo6 on the Animator thread so he can download the file and look at it (to hopefully identify the problem I have been having trying to generate a video). You might also try generating an Animator video and see what results you get.

    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?

    Hey Mike, I'm sure you figured this out already, but when you first create the attribute type a number with the inch mark like 0" or 0' in the value box and hit enter. This will set the unit for that attribute to inches. This only works for the first time a value is entered. After that first initial value, you will need to use the attribute info dialog to make changes. In addition, you can use 0 to set it to text (not "Default: Text") and 0cm to set it to centimeters. If anyone knows a shortcut for setting the unit to Decimal Number, I would love to hear it!

    I tried Universal Importer and did not have much success, at least with the models I tried which was a rather complex one (see the model in my original post). One of the problems I have encountered with the dae files/models I have tried to import was missing faces. I think the solution for me is to find an alternative source/sources to the 3D Warehouse since I can no longer download skp files from there.

    @dave r said: In your example, since you haven't really drawn the rafters, you could scale the roof to change the pitch. I made a group of all of the roof lines and, at one end I drew in a couple of guides with the Protractor with the desired roof pitch. I used 4:12 in this case. Then just scale the group down to the intersection. Probably you would want to divide up the roof into seperate groups so you could scale the narrower section individually. Click on the picture if it doesn't animate immediately. [attachment=0:y9rjs0cs]<!-- ia0 -->roof.gif<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:y9rjs0cs] I drew it that way to get a total LFT of rafter lengths. Your example is exactly what I'm trying to do. I had tried scale before and did not get the desired results. Surely user error. Will have another go at it. Thanks for that animation ... that's great.

    Hard to tell what caused it. I did a site plan which was just a quick tracing of an existing site plan and then made the mistake of plotting a PDF in perspective instead of parallel projection and the whole thing was off. A slight perspective view might throw things off. Any little object with a positive or negative z value. I use flatten.lsp in Autocad to flatten all line work most of the time. This is especially useful when you're drawing over a survey with topography that can be thousands of feet above the ground plane. Even a 3D door will do the same when snapping lines. I'm still old school with Autocad using what's basically a modern version of Autocad 15 and 20 years old. Works great. Non-planar faces in Sketchup can also create a mess.

    you could open the SU program directory at: C;\Program Files\SketchUp\SketchUp 202#\ and delete the sub-directories "\LayOut" and "\StyleBuilder". Don't be surprised if glitches may happen.

    @unknownuser said: Your suggestion to reset the model axes seemed like it would be helpful, it at least sounded like it could be the solution. However, the option to reset the axes is greyed out; I presume they are then already in their default state. I did write, "If the model axes have been shifted ..." Since you haven't shared the SketchUp file there's no way I could know whether you had moved the axes or not. @unknownuser said: There's two sets of coordinate systems at play. One is the photomatch - pair of red and green dashed lines, red and green vanishing points, the yellow horizon and the yellow Origin point. The other is the model, or 3D space, with red, green and yellow axes, meeting at their own Zero point. Not really. When you are setting up the image for Match Photo you are setting up the camera to match the lens used to make the photo and aligning the image to the model axes. I have no way to identify how you got it shifted. I guess I will leave you to it.

    With ThruPaint, use the Natural UV mode, not the QuadMesh UV mode. Your shape is not based on a quad mesh.

    SketchUp Make should still run on Windows 11 at least for now. No idea what will happen to Windows in the future. Keep in mind the embedded web connection hasn't been getting security updates for a few years in Windows 10 and hasn't had any in Windows 11 so there could be security issues. Keeping the computer disconnected from the web would help. SketchUp Pro can save back as far as V3.
