    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!

    I've had the same problem many times. I've found that it is more reliable to use "MOVE/control", but I'd love to see a real answer to your question. Chris

    This is my first try at previewing my model in G.E. G.E. opened but the model didn't show up. I'm guessing it's a permissions issue, but what folder, file do I need to have permission for?

    I am not sure you will get a resolving answer here as this is something that should be addressed to the Sketchup Team . I would send them a message with my problem, perhaps here : http://help.sketchup.com/en/contact/pro-sales . I hope you can get this fixed soon ! Take care !

    Dave, Just had a "DUH" moment. I couldn't figure out why you said the post was 290 feet tall but when I measured it with the tape measure tool, it was the correct height. Scaled. Yah, I get it. Anyway, problem solved. Kris

    I guess I would take that question directly to SketchUp's customer service instead of asking here. People claimed to have issues with SketchUp 8 when it came out, too. I've been using SU2013 since it was first release and wouldn't go back to SU8 and especially LO3 for anything. I much prefer SU2013 and LO2013.

    @drunkabilly said: turn off 'View Hidden Geometry' turn to 'Wireframe' select ALL by dragging the selection box (left to right or right to left) .... This is all you need to do as far as selecting is concerned. (You have too many steps) In 'Entity Info' you'll see only edges selected. The boxes soft, smooth and hidden may be checked but greyed out due to the variety of edge's properties. Just uncheck all these three options. Edit. your 1) should now be 1) turn ON 'View Hidden Geometry' So there are only the three steps with this change in step 1)

    @mac1 said: Gm Have you looked at the follow me tool that is part of the SU tool sets. There are also several plugins: pipe along path: tube along path ,or follow me and keep also but follow me should do the job unless you what a rect cross section. It has a tendency to rotate ,so if that is case use follow me and keep. I,ve attached a tutorial Gully (I think) did several years ago that may help you make a decision[attachment=0:km19rhru]<!-- ia0 -->pipe_layout.skp<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:km19rhru] yes thank you i have tried the follow me tool and also the profile builder, i am going to read your link

    The space shuttle SSRMT is a side looking synthetic radar operating at c/x band I think, been long time since I read its specs. That is what is used for elevation data in Google Earth. Here is a link with perhaps useful info for you. I did not see date on it however http://biodiversityinformatics.amnh.org/index.php?section_id=31%26amp;content_id=119. If you do a search on Google Erath resolution you can find a link that list most of the sat data they use and the scale and resolution specs. It is my understanding both the PRO and free versions have the same resolution.
