    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.

    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!

    It should show progress of the RBZ files in the status-bar. If you have the Ruby Console open are there any error-messages ? Can you do an Update or add a new Plugin using AutoInstall ? Is there anything unusual about your SketchUp set up, or user-name etc... What do you get if you try this + <enter> in the Ruby Console. SCF::PLUGINS

    The adjacent 'cylinder' is in the same context and so its geometry prevents the bottom face of the box from being PushPulled - commonly this is seen when a face has conflicting geometry adjoining it. It can be overcome by selecting the cylinder's geometry and grouping it. Now the bottom face will PushPull, because there's no conflicting geometry at its edge. Afterwards, if desired, you can explode the cylinder group so that it merges back with the rest of the box's geometry... [image: R6dS_Capture.PNG]

    No need to make it a component. You can also name the group and find it using the Outliner. Another approach could be color-coding the layer of the group. Using a color-by-layer style you could visually find the 'special' group. Only useful if you use a limited amount of 'special' groups and or use a logical system for the colors.

    aadbuild, Can you please clarify the license terms? I read through the PlusSpec Terms & Conditions on your website, nothing is mentioned about the plugin will stop working one year after the day of purchase unless I pay a renewal fee. I can't find anything on your website that says anything about renewal. @tandem said: @aadbuild said: ... 11. PlusSpec is $795 for the first year $395 there on in. Worth every penny you'll save 10 times over in one job. .... Does the plugin stop working if I do not renew the subscription or I can continue to use it except that I won't be eligible for updates?

    ok - I found the corrupt file in my work pc recycle bin. apply fredoscale and use the 'box stretch to target' option. click the origin onto one of the leg's baseplate and you should see strange wireframe effects take place as you stretch/collapse the component.

    @glro said: plugins using ruby lines of code moving components, or screening of special types of components among all objects in the model, seem to be much slower on sketchup 15 compared to sketchup 8 Do you have code examples with timing to demonstrate this?

    Thanks Ocean & Casca, yes I have looked at Plant factory and will check Speedtree, actually I'm not too concern about something a bit pricey as long as is good, widely used and not too complicate to learn. Does proxy in sketchup solve the problem even if I use many different plants of 15mb + each? to be honest I have not used the new vray 2.0 yet. Will be nice to make like a poll to see what people here are using to deal with photorealistic vegetation.

    BugSplat reports do go directly to Trimble, but we don't personally contact each user who crashes - the reports are mostly used to pull out the "most common" issues. However, if you put a name or email address on the report, and then post in the SketchUp forum, I (or someone else) can look up the crash report and may be able to offer insight. Thanks, Marc
