    @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!

    Emailing .SKP files in Gmail

    @tig said: Lately gmail and its derivatives have blocked most kinds of 'compressed files'... So RBZ, Layout, SKM files and possibly others can't be attached to emails [e.g. ZIP]. Even if you use another suffix and tell the recipient to rename it receipt, it gets spotted ! The 'header' is read of every attached file. Perhaps SKP files are now subject to similar draconian measures ?? Use DropBox or something similar... Well that's weird as I just sent my yahoo account a zipped skp file. Something else must be going on then. [image: Screenshot-1.jpg]

    SketchUp is not geared towards that level of intricacy. Not impossible just labour intensive, especially for furniture. I still think texturing is the way to go. If it's for presentation then its more visual than accurate.

    LAYERS COLORS TO TEXTURE OR MATERIAL

    Please don't SHOUT at us ! Typing everything in capital letters is considered to be bad-manners... Now to answer your question... Layers [Tags] can have colors set manually from your model's materials - including transparency and textures... But only their colors are accessible [get/set] through the Ruby API - i.e. not transparency or textures. SketchUp can have materials which include simple colors and textures - with or without transparency. So if you want to 'extract' your layer/tag colors with Ruby it is possible, then you can use the color' RGB data to make a new material in your model [perhaps named after the layer/tag name ?]. However, although it's possible, it's not simple ! There have previously been several threads discussing this... try searching the forums' posts... There are working code examples...

    Normally it will directly render your SKP file... Free to you to change anything if you want! simple https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVSH6_yqY1I or a little more tricky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GynbluSJHOQ

    @dbur33 said: msg_validation_error Request to Sketchucation = ERROR_F09 Error F09 indicates a plugin name mismatch. Is it possible you are trying to license Round Corner using a license for FredoCorner? Or the other way around? What version of SketchUp are you using? Please complete your forum profile.

    Hi Dave, It wouldn't surprise me, as I mentioned, this model has been a WIP for the past 3-4 years. I think back then I broke my own rule of keeping it simple, I might investigate further this weekend. Unfortunately, I have too much time invested in this model to start all over, as much as I would like to. Thanks for help Dave, very much appreciated. Stan

    It's best to just model it. I would never use displacement in this manner. There are plug-ins that could help with the modeling pretty quickly I bet.

    I would guess the odd behaviour is targeting only you I'm afraid. In Windows you can change the Open dialog dropdown behaviour via the Local Group Policy or the Regedit. But its so deeply buried that there's no way you managed to do so without knowing. Bizarre.
