    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!

    Working with the .stl file is problematic due to the triangulation of all surfaces. If you must work with it in SketchUp you would find it better to import it with Meters as the import units. Also selecting Merge coplanar faces in the Import options will help. Even then it has problems but they will be easier to manage. Seems to me it would be better to use the stl as a reference and create a new, cleaner model of it to avoid problems like those that have been pointed out already. Maybe it's possible to get a 3D DXF file from the original source? Maybe it would have fewer issues. Hard to say from here.

    Rereading your OP. If you had an image of the long side with the grooves in it, you could use that as a texture on the one face or a simple extruded box. Then mitering it would be trivial with either a drawn diagonal and Push/Pull or just moving an edge. If you don't need the internal details at all, don't model it as a hollow shape.

    @tig said: If it's only a few instances, then there's a simple manual fix... Use a Style showing end-points - so you can see them! Use the Move tool with nothing preselected. Pick the end of the split line and move it to the end of its cousin. You can move a vertex if nothing else is selected - otherwise the Move tool assumes you want to move the selected objects ! You now have one line where there were two... Obviously if there are lots of split lines a script is more efficient... Thank you, TIG.

    @abcgsketch said: Hi, I bought Fredo's plugin bundle and I need an invoice of the purchase. I can't find any information how to get an invoice. Anybody has a hint? Thanks Generally speaking, I'm in the process of switching to Blender because Sketchup has been steadily getting worse with each new release since 2018. However, I must admit that I am missing SU's simple workflow for precision design since no plugin for billing process has yet made switching between the two options possible.
