    @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!

    @Last is gone and the new owners view Sketchup just as a business. The discount deal to subscribe is pretty good if the new features are really needed but you will be just a subscriber and with no feedback option like in the beginning. IMO If your most current SU does the job just keep your perpetual or free license and then you can use all your favorite plugins as well. There is no way to be certain that the subscription versions will support your plugins in any case. Even SU 8 with all the super plugins that there are is very powerful and complete for most modeling. Sketchup in the beginning was and still is the best conceptual modeling program that one could hope for but is not a Cad program and Layout is not either. For Cad and production drawings Give Turbocad Deluxe a look. It is very configurable and icons for all functions with user definable keystrokes too. It has Model space/Paper space/xref and underlay PDF features. Also will import/export Sketchup/Acad/Dxf/Stl and more. Very affordable too. Sketchup 2018 is a good stopping point as even old legacy plugins and all of my favorites still work properly. dtrarch

    Your post hasn't been blocked by trimble, the cia, mossad or anyone except the basic users of the forum. It shows to me as hidden, posts look very different if they have been deleted.

    @rparsons said: I currently use Sketchup 2018 although I am up to date with the maintenance program. I just downloaded 2020-2 and installed but I do not have an email giving me the serial number and authorization. Where do I get that info? Thanks in advance. Ron Try the SketchUp license manager.

    Well, I've decided to ditch animating it all together and just make a simple render. Will post it in a few!

    More segments can be better if you want smoother curves and such. It can also result in file bloat which can adversely affect the model so you have to be wise about it.

    Good deal. You can go to your Trimble Account Manager Portal and remove all users freeing up all the seats if you ever need to do that. Then you just sign in again as needed.

    Wow! That's a pretty clumsy way to deal with an expired subscription! You might want to contact MindSight Studios and see if they are aware of this.
