    @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!

    Not 100% sure yet but it appears that it may be the Extrude Tools extension. I can reproduce it every time I use that extension.

    Both. I can not get to stay on "All Same". It ALWAYS reverts back to "By Material" as soon as I save the file. So frustrating

    No, there aren't Styles in ver 5 Baz. Can't find 'Guides' anywhere. say, can someone explain how I transfer all my old materials into this new SUp? I went to my old machine, SketchUp 5> Library, copied all the jpg and skm, then put them all in the new SketchUp 5> Library folder, restarted SUp but I don't see them.

    @leedeetee said: Thanks for the reply - I have tried to model everything and not worry about the parts of the model that will be below the ground, but my contact was adamant. Think I need to set up a meeting with him as it would save a lot of messing about! Please the adamant one by all means! I think I will be doing that until I die.

    Kathryn, it may well be Autosave that's crashing LightUp... if it kicks in during any intensive process it can bring SU to it's knees... ⌘S is one of the best shortcuts to use religiously john

    All depends on what you got and what you want. If you are just trying to make flat surface that looks like a road, just make a face and push pull it up. Use one edge and an outline to use follow-me and add curb and gutter. If you want a crown in the road you can use follow me on a curve for the road ss well, but that road will have all one width, and intersections will require other work. Extrude edges by rails can help if your road needs a crown and is variable width, but intersections will still require a lot of work. If you want a realistically made road with proper grading these methods won't make it. You might try skinning progressive profile curves with extrusion tools or curviloft.

    @airwindsolar said: I should have been more clear on altitude; I mean in the sense of aligning an alt/az mount, so it would actually be pitch. The vertical angle(pitch?) measured from the +Z axis would be Math::acos(nrm.z)
