    BlenderGIS can get you pretty good images.. you do need an API key to get set up but it's all free and you can even generate 3d geometry based on the elevations in the satellite images.. it tiles in blender so you the more you zoom the better the image quality to a point.

    You could also go on to Layout and have more control over .dwg export, and less control... but you could use the layers there. Kenny's method is better...

    @box said: There are many ways, but you might need to be more specific about what you need. Rich's tutorial on the very basics may be enough to get you going. http://sketchucation.com/resources/tutorials/beginner/24-how-to-make-a-spiral-stair Then again you could make the stairs straight and use shape bender to curve it. http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=clf_shape_bender_v055 Or have a go with one of the Stair Maker plugins http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=gkware_stairmaker http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=Stair_Maker and a simple one using Fredo's Radial Bend, part of Fredo Scale. Thanks BOX All of them are usefull to me
  • Revit to Sketchup Workflow...

    I am using a RevitLT / SketchUp workflow. I've tried all manner of programs and in the end settled on RevitLT. The documentation is what sells it for me - grids, schedules, tags for windows and doors, etc. That being said, nothing rivals SkecthUp for the 3D modeling of odd stuff and all the possibilities of presentation. I model everything I can in RevitLT and export the file as an acis solid dwg. This imports into SketchUp without any problems with all the Revit objects becoming components or groups. What doesn't happen is the importing of the textures. I do the texture application in SketchUp. This isn't as onerous as it sounds. I use Simlab for 3D pdfs from SketchUp and find it quite useful. I can't use the Revit plugin as LT doesn't support plugins so I can't comment on that. Not a perfect workflow but pretty good. KrisM

    Does it look the same if you use layers for the control of the visibility?

    Thanks for the explanation. I did wonder what it is you are drawing. I'd never have guessed it was for a musical instrument. Cheers.

    TTF have the same problem in displaying variations on my MAC SU 2015. No there is not an equivalent in TTF as they are being phased out.

    The clipping plane is actually not recognized on the visualization service ... So it looks much complicated. Thanks a lot anyway !

    Dave, is there still an issue with that not working with plugins from other sources? @box said: One small thing to note, Plugins from other sources won't be included in Bundles. It can only recognise ones you have downloaded through the Sketchcation tool.

    Why not just move the group to the proper Z then explode the group. You might also try my Move2Elev plugin.
