    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!

    Hi bpjmarriott1993, Small adjustment to the board is required. You have to add some unified triangles to finish off. See attachment. [image: xNxc_20130715-SUF-Stairs.jpg] 20130715-SUF-BeginnerStairs.skp

    Thank you jorlan and Pilou. As an illustration of the task I'm trying to optimize see attached image. Resulting image was made by manually placing copy of the circle on the rectangular face. I'm hoping there is a plugin/ruby script to calculate/place maximum possible number of shapes (in this case circles) on given face. Thank you for your time. [image: krNd_shapesonface1.jpg]

    i installed a new drive in my laptop yesterday and spent today getting everything up and running.. anyway, i had this same 'problem' (with su8) finally figured out what it was after the 4th launch.. it's just that i still had the sketchup splash screen set to show upon launch which sort of makes it seem as if the license info wasn't remembered.. even though it was. doh!

    Exactly like you said. I have both versions 2013 and 8. Because version 8 becomes default so doubleclicking on a file to open was giving errors about version. I didn't realize that I had 2 vesions installed Thanks for help, problem solved

    Yes. Window>Fog>Check Display Fog use sliders to adjust. Rightclick on Scene Tab>Update. Rightclick On Scene Tab again, Add Scene and set fog parameters, Update scene.... Does this work for you?

    I was going to say that most of your issues sound mouse related... I wonder if your clicker isn't going out and not holding functions. Might take it apart and clean it. I mean inside where the buttons connect to the little mini buttons.

    Good knees are hard to find these days, Pilou. and finding four that are T-shaped and the right size even harder.

    Hello Brian, First, my condolences on the loss of your friend. We did something similar to your problem with SAT (SimFonIA animation Tool). The fly datas were from Flight-simulator. http://youtu.be/XWsI7oR3kdc Regards, SimFonIA teal
