Hi my name is Mauricio Vélez, I´m new in this community and using sketch for a few months, now I´m working with idx renditioner for rendering, and I´ll like to know if somenone has some information about this program. I have some simple examples that a have made but I don´t know if I can post them here. Well see you people. Bye.
-
Hi Mauricio and welcome to the forums.
Sure you can post examples and hope there are people who can help you (I also have IDX Renditioner although I have to tell you that I have not had much time to to fully get around it yet).
-
Hi Mauricio,
I'm William and I'm with IDX. I'm on these forums from time to time, mostly learning about SketchUp. If you have specific Renditioner questions I should be able to help you. For general rendering and SketchUp questions the Gallery area here is fantastic for quick feedback! If they are narrow questions about how to do x or y, you will probably get faster help on the IDX forums at http://forums.idx-design.com.

Hello all. My name is Jeremy and am about to install SketchUp. I am a little unsure about SketchUp being the software I need. My actual need is for a 3d posable model of a spider monkey. The visual surfaces of the model are less important than the ability to pose the model and use still photos of the various poses for some silouette artwork. Is SketchUp capable of manipulating a model in this way? I really hope it is as the free aspect of the program makes it very attractive! Let me know your thoughts and if SketchUp will be able to get me where I am going?
Jeremy

Hello Ronald and welcome. Your models look interesting so keep them coming and if you have any question,just feel free to ask.
Jeremy, welcome too. I'm afraid SU is not the best tool for this although I have already seen such things by experts.
Hi James - yes, what the others suggesdted above. Hopefully we will soon have a better index of plugins but until then that search function is the best.

hello there
i just discovered sketchup and im totally amazed by the possibilities, and how easy it all is.
i'm currently checking out all the tutorials on youtube and trying things out, i have however a little problem.when i try out things in sketchup sooner or later it starts acting weird, my cursor starts leaving a sort of trace of the tool i was using at the moment. i cant imagine that's normal
i attached a screen shot to show what i mean, can anybody help me?
thanks

Looks like an opengl problem to me.
Make sure youve got the latest drivers for your graphics card. If that doesnt fix it, go in to SU window->preferences->openGL then turn of hardware acceleration.
-
thanks for that!, turning off the hardware acceleration seems to work, im not sure what i actually did there though. will turning that off effect anything else in the program?
gj -
It will slow SU down a lot with bigger models.
Might i ask what graphics card youve got? if any.
-
yes you may and i have to say that im not sure if i even have one, just looked at "about this mac" and it didn't show a graphic card. it did say this at the graphic/display button.
