    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?

    @dan rathbun said: @ntxdave said: I have tried various things like modifying the path name to my .dae files, ... If it helps, my environment is Win 8.1 with IE 11.096.............. You may need to prefix with file:// or file://localhost/ Thanks for the reply......... Here are the statements that reference the file name and location (this is the way the sample code that I downloaded was coded and the .dae file was located in a subdirectory of where I put the downloaded code) // Specifier le chemin du fichier collada | specify path for collada file var scene = CubicVR.loadCollada("Sketchup/solaire.dae","Sketchup"); var objectBounds = scene.getSceneObject("Sketchup").getAABB(); I tried several variations of your suggestion including the file:// and the full path name on the hard drive to the file. Still nothing but a blank page. It should be noted that I am not running server software but this is the only page that has failed to display. The page does come up but it is blank. BTW: There is also a css style coded as canvas{ background: #fff url('voie-lactee.jpg') center no-repeat !important; } which does not display either. If I change canvas to body, the image background is displayed. Again, any feedback that anyone can give me is greatly appreciated.

    I like the idea of using otherwise wasted space. I'll be interested to see your plan.

    @zergone said: Hello, I would like to do the following: • Read CSV file containing height and width of the object (depth is optional or same for all) • Create 3D object (1 per row of CSV file) • Export as Collada file I guess it would be achievable since I have similar workflow to create images/textures in Pyhton. It is obvious I don't know Ruby. Are there any extensions that I could use? Thank you. I think I have a plugin that will do this for you but would like to test it with your data first so post or PM me the CSV file.

    Kerkythea can do clay renders. I expect almost any rendering app can do them. When I read chalk, I think of this sort of thing. [image: 8160873898_89b72a70d0.jpg]

    Yes, there have been a lot of under-the-hood improvements that might not be so obvious to the user but they should make it possible for more noticeable feature upgrades in subsequent versions. There have been major improvements in LayOut, too. As for when SU2015 will come, it's anyone's guess but based on SU2014, it would be reasonable to expect the next version to come in the first quarter of 2015 or so.

    @scostumatu said: never mind - figured it out... i had to de select the forground option in the styles menu under match photo... it was making it lag That seems to solve the problem of the unbearable slowness. It appears it is a bug then, cause in previous versions - sketchup 8 - that problem didn't exist. You could freely work with the forground option on and with transparencies both of the model and of the photomatched photo. Anyone aware of this bug?

    @pbacot said: Thanks! That would be nice. How about is there a way to make custom hatches if you don't own AutoCAD? Your list in the post says "build your own from scratch", so I suppose it is somehow supported within the plugin and SketchUp. The net is full of pat files that you can use. In version 1.0 you can edit the size, line color, fill color and lineweight. A full pat builder will come in version 1.1 (free update) The Skalp Team

    It could be that the axis tool is resetting itself back to the default every time the auto-save kicks in (which might make it seem like the axis changing locations from toggling the perspective).

    @jfraser83 said: Im wondering if there is a plugin/tool that allows me to extrude a contoured (non flat) face from a terrain. Currently I am using a line extrude command, then copying up the face to that height. Or I am intersecting a 'flat' extruded face between to levels of the contoured terrain. These are very time consuming. (hope this makes sense) Anything out there? Perhaps this plugin? http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323%26amp;t=48812%26amp;hilit=+curves A sample model showing what you start and end with would be most helpful.

    Hi: An .rb is the filename extension for a Ruby script. Ruby is a high level scripting language used for Sketchup to automate repetitive, or multiple operations to achieve a modeling purpose. How to install on a Mac can be found here for a start: http://help.sketchup.com/en/article/38583

    Hello Miguel I'm going to buy this mouse in a little while, and I'm an intensive skechup and blender user. Do you recommend now to buy this mouse ?
