    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?

    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!

    This is a great book. Can't say I've mended my ways, but at least I know more about the problem. It has exercises and, if I ever get around to it, they might help....

    Hmmm, doesnt sound like it should b overly troublesome. Might be worth trying to export as tiny jpegs to see if it is just running out of memory, because it might be something else. The problem is, SU cant address more than 4GB of RAM, even if youve got it. So upgrading your RAM wont actually help. Youll need to find a workaround, if the memory is the problem, of course.

    I think the options will depend on which font you have selected.

    Yes, that's definitely a solution however not very "economic" with component instances.

    I wonder how many other people have this problem. Some guy's seem to be luckier than others;) But this is very frustrating and I consider my self an expert in sketchup. Please save us SU 7. Sketchup doesn't play by it's own rules in this regard.

    There is an autolisp that I just love for working with curves to bring in to SketchUp. It is called qbrick. It can be found here: http://www.synapse-informatique.com/qbrick_en.htm I genereally use it to break all lines segments where they cross another lines segment so they come in to SketchUp cleaner. But it also works well with arcs and segments. Check out the last group of operations on the page. It looks like it lets you divide entities into segments of equal length. Hope it helps, Chris

    Id have to go with norbert on this, its a lot easier doing stuff like this with NURBS. You can then convert to polys if you need to. MoI is a good place to start for easy NURBS modelling.
