    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?

    Rich gave you several suggestions that can do that sort of thing. Sometimes it just requires thinking ahead a few steps. If I was modeling this piece and like you decided to add the hand hole late in the design, I would have put the hand hole in the left hand side component, then replaced the right side component with the left one (select the old right side, right click on the left one in the components panel and choose Replace Selected. Then Make Unique and use the shelf to cut a new dado in the new right side with Eneroth Trim or Bool Tools 2 Trim. It take a little forethought and planning for possible changes but it's not difficult and takes little time, especially with keyboard shortcuts.

    Always check the Outliner after import. Sometimes models can import and not be at world origin or scaled so large/small they sit outside the scope of the clipping plane.

    @dave r said: Did you catch the thing about the Tag tool? I did, but I have not found much use for it yet. But my models are typically not very complex. The way I use Sketchup is more reliant on repetitive tasks and a workflow based on muscle memory to speed the task of doing solar panel layouts on existing residences brought into 3D space from flat imagery. That's why the axis issue was such a hassle for me. A decade of doing things the same way is hard to change. I currently have over 6,000 Sketchup models created using the same repetitive process (except for the last infuriating change with the Add Location window that added at least 6 keypresses or clicks to my prior workflow). These changes have real implications for people. Software engineers sometimes don't consider how changes might affect users. But on balance, the continued development of SU and the addition of features over the years has been great.

    You need to install the latest version of the SketchUcation Toolset [from the PluginStore/ExtensionStore³] - then restart SketchUp to ensure everything syncs... The SketchUcation Toolset [>=v4.2.5] will add the latest licensing system... Also ensure that you have the latest version of the Fredo Lib installed...

    What Dave said! I see you are using Curviloft.You should try something like this. It creates a little depression where the connecting curves are placed but overall looks ok. [image: xY2V_test01ED.jpg]

    Hi TIG, thanks for the orientation. Since I am a neophyte in sketchup programming, I will need more a step by step help. If you could give the code to copy in ruby and specify where to put the Z value to select component. Is it made for edges or faces selection only or a whole component can be selected. Does it select all components above or under the Z value or the component that are on this coordinate? Thanks for more information, sorry not to catch at first pitch! S.

    I had to ditch a LOT of older CAD stuff to make way but I finally got UE5 installed. It looks extremely powerful considering the price point and there is a definite effect to be felt in the industry when the dust settles but that has been asked before so maybe little will change. Habit rules us as much as anything else.

I'll poke Anton and see if he will update it so it is included. But Fredo's stuff and my Pie for SketchUp are. So if you purchase and validate a license for any of Fredo's stuff it will show up. ... what I purchased does not show up and I can't purchase any new, because I don#t use paypal Thanks anyway.

    @mike amos said: I had previously installed as admin What exactly does that mean? You signed into Windows as the administrator? Or did you right click on the installer and choose Run as administrator from the Context menu? @mike amos said: Despite this pluigin being installed and looking at View - Toolbars, nada. Does the Extension Manager show it is installed? Did you try restarting SketchUp after installing it? @mike amos said: I might give it another go but frankly I went through the whole procedure five times and nada. There has to be something wrong in the way you installed SketchUp 2022 or it would have worked. I guess it's all moot though since you've decided to stick with 2021. Best.
