    @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!

    You can put section planes in a group. Then it will only cut through the object in the group or component and not the whole model.

    Hey One component already on the orgin plane this make it easy to do, if you have scaleGroupFloat_dj.rb loaded. target save and move meathod: step 1: Make one component unique. (right click to context list) step 2: 1-time left click of the component you want to change. Save target, via scaleGroupFloat_dj (press ok). step 3: 2-times left click set axes to component and 3-times more edit select the object of the component . Using the Move to target, via scaleGroupFloat_dj.(press ok), will auto aline component to orgin plain. Now select ouside of component now your done. All above steps is shown here [image: ekaF_Movie_0007.gif] If both were non aline to orgin plain then do other with step two and three too. Advance woking of this; just add the axes tool into the mix. then turning object is just a breeze, for those tools that needs to be aline to x-y plain for z axis drops . examples usesages to [Plugin] Color by Z drop sandbox.rb smartdrop.rb TIG-drapematerials.rb TIG-Drop Material onto Instances tt_component_dropper

    @box said: I'm not sure what you are asking about. If you are saying photomatch isn't working because the photos are different, then there's not a lot you can do about that. Photos for such things are never accurate, measurements and drawings are a better option. Photos usually only give you a way of checking exactely what is is you are trying to model. I'm working with what I have available. Otherwise, there are options available to create great 3D models from reference pictures, they are just a bit more accurate than what I need for this project. Ironic perhaps, but true. http://www.123dapp.com/catch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsBg-m2hrIM

    Thanks Dave, you reminded me of the Transparency setting. I had my Transparency quality set to "nicer" instead of 'faster' and I've got the effect i want. Thanks for your help!!

    @unknownuser said: With that video card you should have hardware acceleration active. In fact, it would be a huge mistake not to. In SU - Window/preferences/open GL, you should have hardware acceleration checked. If you don't, SU will be painfully slow. Exactly. If HW acceleration does not work properly for these cards, you may wish to update your video drivers instead of turning it off.

    What you are looking for are DEMs. Digital elevation models. Most cities have ones created be synthetic aperture radar, accuracy about 1 meter, or lidar, accuracy about 1 foot. Rural areas are a lot more variable. The shuttle flew a mission that did SAR from orbit, but the grid spacing is about 30 meters, and the accuracy is awful. If USGS topo data is good enough, I vaguely recall a page on converting topo lines to terrain. Warning: topo data is not very good at the house lot size level. There is typically a semi-systematic error in the horizontal placement of contour lines equal to several times the contour interval. The shape is right, but slope inflections tend to be moved away from the centre of the photographic track. If its critical to get it right, rent a DGPS, and take a waypoint every 10 meters. If the terrain isn't too bad, you can do a hectare an hour.

    @slbaumgartner said: I just exported a 10310x6650 jpeg (I set 12800x6650, but SketchUp seemingly overrode the larger dimension during export - perhaps due to the size of the screen?). I tried even larger, but got a popup saying "The export failed or was cancelled". This makes me think there is an undocumented upper limit, but I don't know what it is. Steve Hi Steve, Thanks for your answer. During exporting of multiple files I eventually also got the popup. So sometimes it works; sometimes it doesn't. I have no idea why that is. Perhaps not enough memory. The export dimensions are indeed related to the size of your screen.
