    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!

    @liam887 said: @cjryan said: Just out of curiosity, what was the "Windows Experience Index" number? The fact that I don't have SSDs, always has dragged mine down to the mid 5's. Processor, memory, and graphics are in the high 7's. I know this is a more or less arbitrary assignment of numbers, but does the SSD, bring your numbers up to the high 7's? I will check when I get it back to my house, currently in a taxi My number was 8, but I still havent had all the drivers installed and running two 32" Tv's as monitors, not sure how those things can alter the results. Here are a few pics of the machine too. [image: qcUg_1.jpg] [image: hFJK_2.jpg] [image: GSlG_3.jpg] [image: mpIZ_4.jpg] [image: ARXe_1600.jpg]

    Like some animation plugins' animation can be rendered in certain rendering apps - even if they cannot be rendered (with the native animation export) in SU itself. Keyframe animation (one which would be ideal for your example) or SketchyPhysics can be rendered as animation in Twilight Render for example.

    @edson said: with the huge amount of plugins available for sketchup the only remaining problem, in my opinion, is sketchup's difficulty in handling high-poly models. one alternative for the unhappy user could be bonzai3d. Bonzai was ready to capture some SU users, then what happened??? Dead? No updates! What?

    All, Thanks for the advice on the .csv file. I'm pretty familiar with excel and its capabilities, and what I have works OK, but I have to do a lot of fiddling with the spreadsheet before I can get it into a useable state. What I found works really well is to pre-format a blank worksheet with all of the headers and column widths the way I want them, then hide the columns that I won't use. I then copy and paste the data from the .csv into the blank (cntrl+shift+end from the first cell of the .csv, then cntrl+V into the first cell of the .xlsx). So, no problem with getting the results I want after a few steps. I was just wondering if a plug-in existed that would do all of that output management up-front so I could export exactly what I want into the spreadsheet and save a few steps. Thanks, again, for your help! Frank

    @gisdude said: @drafter x said: I can tell your working with architectural drawings. I'm going to say what most will not, and that is that architects are some of the absolute worst when it comes to drawing things precisely in autocad drawings. I beg to differ - engineers are the absolute worst at snaps, trims, etc. Not to mention there redlines on drawings... Agreed. Although many Architects are just as guilty.

    I got the edges cleaned up on the face of the letters. Is it possible to deal with the ones on the edge of the letters? So far every time I remove one (fn click with eraser on WIN) the whole surface is removed. Thanks again
