    Make it a component and save it to a component collection, then select and place it from the component panel whenever you need it.

    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?

    I remember seeing a YouTube video from a guy using LOD trees in Blender Game engine. The video wasn't great but the workflow show lo poly tree generation.

    @blackdogsketch said: ... It doesn't seem that YOU are doing it to reduce image export time. if it was too me... overall, you reduce the export time mainly by splitting out the shadows from the textures and any raster line work... here's a realtime export of a simple model... ignore the fact it's crammed so small for the gif, the shadows were 4000px wide, line work 2000 and 3000 texture 2000 ignore the plugin resizing the window, I just added my code in it to save some time coding... I also used a vivid background because I was doing all the post in code and it made it easier... but the principle is the same for manually making these... have x number of style and one scene per view... for each scene export an image, sized depending on the style... i.e. shadow style was biggest because I wanted the most control over it...

    Thanks for the explanation, TIG. Now I know what to look for if the model is not imported correctly. In this case, No Image-file was included in MTL-file of the model I tried to import. Once again, thank you very much for the explanation.

    @blackdogsketch said: So when I disable hardware acceleration, is the GPU still doing all the graphics export work? no, the rendering is then done in software by the CPU. Depending on the horsepower of the CPU this may not be much slower (or faster) than the GPU, especially in connection with integrated/shared low-end solutions like the intelHD series of many notebooks.

    An orthographic camera has no field of view unlike a perspective camera. So if you transition from a orthographic to a perspective the shift is because the field of view introduces depth to the scene. [image: 8WPW_ortho-pers.gif] If you transition back to orthographic from the perspective scene you'll see this increased as the camera removes the depth.

    Perhaps you did get the axes moved slightly by mistake. If you want, send me the file and I'll have a look.

    I was thinking of a leader but I think it will be a lot of extra manual work. if it was just a few items I wouldn't mind too much. holding the cursor over to get the info would be a start but I would need it visable for printing. essentially what I have been asked to do is take someone else's blueprint (hopefully autocad file) and trace the walls to make a wall framing key plan for the framer. I would then label the walls to be visable as to where they are going then copy the walls and line them up to add dimensions to them for easier framing. If it was a house or small multi-family complex I wouldn't mind but this is 2 large 4 storey condo complexes totaling about 180,000 sqft so that's a lot of walls to both name and label.

    You can set the shadow settings (in all scenes) such that it does not display cast shadows on the ground plane. In the Shadows window (expanded pane). Then you probably would want a script that can do that.

    figured this out. I have to minimize or close the model window behind the window I just opened. For some reason the viewport is focused on the window behind...
