    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.

    No. I'm suggesting you don't explode the components until you've replaced the geometry inside with a guide point. Since all the X-cross objects are instances of the same component, you only need to edit one of them if you don't explode them all first. After you make the edit, explode the instances to leave the guide point cloud you are after.

    Sketchup will export whatever is in the model, expecting a future update to somehow ignore random geometry is somewhat optimistic.

    That is one of the things people forget, models are just edges and faces, so you can select the end and scale it, or the whole end section and so on.

    As Box guessed, they are Dynamic Components. Rotation is set in the Component Options panel. [image: GNB1_Screenshot-3_20_20214_04_09PM.png]

    There is a known issue (feature?) when using Architectural units that the ~ indicating that the displayed measurement is rounded isn't shown when both feet and inches are present.

    I'm not sure why you want to use silicone (I assume you mean a silicone-based caulk?). Are you worried about different expansion of the metal vs wood? Silicone will accommodate that, but will provide a somewhat rubbery bond that might be a bit unsettling to people going up the stairs unless there is a tight fit between the wood and metal. But if that is the case, there won't be room for different expansion anyway! I think I would also favor an epoxy.

    I suspect you may be using more than the default 24 segments for your circles.

    @jman0war said: Thanks. I used to use BlueBeam Revu years ago, mostly for the one click PDF conversion and a few Markup tools. Looks like they've added functionality. I only have the viewer but it's great to get dims off of PDFs. It'd be nice to be able to bring vector PDFs into SU (like I can in AutoCAD) but maybe one day. Good luck Glenn

    Box, Thanks for the suggestion I followed your suggestion; the M key brings up a 4-pointed arrow. If I trace it around the perimeter of my two screens nothing happens. If I click it exits, the 4-pointed arrow disappears. What am I doing wrong? Thank you john

    Thanks HornOxx. I tried that. Adjusted it by using perspective in Photoshop. Didn't work.

    Thank you for your reply, Yes, I do this when I have these kinds of concerns. So I had done all this two days ago without success ... Moreover I am registered on the Nvidia.fr site to be informed during updates of my graphics card driver. I just restored the settings to defaults during the 1st installation of the Nvidia driver, then I set for SU as I am used to (I always used Nvidia Quadro or Geforce drivers) and everything is returned to order. Well, in the end our exchange allowed me to resolve the problem. -Zooen
