    @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!

    Editing one component - seeing textures on other components?

    @redmotion said: I want to align textures on one component with those on several others (using Texture > position) but when I edit the component all other components turn grey/untextured. Is there any way to have textures display on everything while editing one component? No, I don't think SU ever displayes texture of components in higher levels when you are in editing context of a group or component. First question could also be interpreted as: .....all other completely differentcomponents with same texture turn grey/untextured. If so, you need to apply extra geometry (edge or guide) outside editing context by eyeballing, to mark how you do want to make changes to the textures position. See simple example in attached file: pre-marked texture position for aligning with neighboring group.

    Yes, it sounds perfect. I'll try both options and see which is best for my work-flow. Thank you again (for both helping and the plugin ;o) )

    you know when you smooth geometry with SDS and the size of your mesh scales down slighly? Tgi's 'up-sample' uses a fancy algorithm to smooth but keep things to size. There are other features that are pretty good but that's another time...

    Something is happening though. If you adjust the shadow date from 01/01 to 06/22 you go from a light to a darker coloration on the object at the RHS.

    @bob james said: Thanks, TIG. Will they loose their high quality as a result of this process? Probably - try it an see. A .prc file is a format for text, the .pdf version will probbaly replicate it's quality but any images will almost certainly loose 'something' in the processing - of course it depends on what you want to do with it! It might not be so bad

    Blender has this - to make a mesh from a picture "displace-modifier" Blender is lighter even than SketchUP and this carving modeling is by nature manual work. So, You can start with displace-modifier and tweak it with excellent blender mesh modeling tools which SketchUP lacks. http://www.davidjarvis.ca/dave/blender/tutorial-16.shtml http://www.gotmyidea.com/67998-blender-tutorial-displace-modifier.php http://www.blendercookie.com/2010/04/06/tip-adding-extra-detail-with-a-displace-modifier/ http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=31339&hilit=Rhino&start=15 http://www.blendermasters.com/cms/en/materials/displacement-maps-3d-objects-based-on-2d-maps-3.html Stick with Blender - if You insist to learn the basics they will became your second nature - I'm a Blender newbie and even made my keyboard shortcuts in SketchUp as in Blender. http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Blender-Source-Modeling-Animation/dp/1430231262

    The Mac can render only 1024x1024 bitmaps in HW. SU tile renders the scene and then puts the tiles together into the final bitmap. There's a bug where text that spans tile boundaries will get clipped (what you're seeing). Insert your models into LayOut and add your text in the LayOut document.

    OK then, you have two choices. Wait till someone more knowledgeable at Kerky than me chimes in here - or go to the KT Forums and (hopefully) get a more prompt but even more importantly; precise answer there.

    @krisidious said: it's always vector for me... dwg and for adobe that works well. Krisidious, I mostly export dwg as well. However, the quantity of entities KILLS me. The SketchUp drawing below has 49,595 entities. I believe this is because dwg does not support Bezier curves or ellipses. All arcs, ellipses, curves and many lines are broken into segments. That is, a simple circle (a single entity item in some vector drawing programs) breaks down to 24 entities in SketchUp. And, the quality of the dwg export is not really good - even for relatively simple objects. Many lines go missing, corners don't meet, etc. I've tested this in Corel Designer and Illustrator. If I have a choice, I bring 3D models into SolidWorks for export as dwg. The filters are fantastic and the results are nearly perfect. Other programs with similar results to what I get with SketchUp (high entity, bad quality vector export) include QuadriSpace, Right Hemisphere (Deep Exploration), and Adobe 3D.

    Hi, For what it's worth, number of years ago I saw at SIGGraph (possibly 2006, in Boston) a development from Caligary's trueSpace, a 3D modeler (http://www.caligari.com/), that allowed people to work synchronously and simultaneously yet remotely on models that lived in a shared 3D space, without recurring to any 'baton-passing'. This shared space was called truePlay and though it didn't have A/V/chat for communication, coordination and collaboration, I saw them using it with NetMeeting - http://www.letsgodigital.org/en/news/articles/story_7710.html. Caligari was later bought by Microsoft and then... who knows but at the very least this proves a point, namely that co-working on a same file was and moreover should be today perfectly possible at least so, with the right tools and in an appropriate environment Cheers, . Diego .

    SketchUp in the Cloud?

    SketchUp does not run in the cloud. The above example "Roozz" was scamware. It messed with the local install of SketchUp because it did install SketchUp locally into 'Program Files'. "Spoon" is at least as clever to install unobtrusively into '%USER%\Local Settings', but it doesn't succeed to display the application inside the browser (it's displayed in a normal window). Running a local app in a browser is really not the point of cloud computing (we do already run media plugins or pdf viewers in the browser; there exist plugins that can put any application inside firefox, also SketchUp). Those plugins Roozz/Spoon don't give platform-interoperability. In the best case, such a plugin would create a VCN connection to a computer/server that runs those applications on a real Windows/OS X. I think Google did good to remove SketchUp from Roozz (which is dangerous) and possibly the same for Spoon. On the other side, Google likes web applications and confirmed that they keep an eye on a future SketchUp Web App, when the technology is ready: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/sketchup/thread?tid=39d42ddba38c76b3&hl=en
