A new "D'uh" for me: holding shift while using the smoove tool: smooves from normals.

Damn!! This has to be the most useful 'Duh!' in the thread - is this documented anywhere?!

You can sculpt in a direction other than vertical by holding down
the Shift key while moving the mouse. However, this operation can result in a
non-functional terrain or terrain that can no longer be manipulated in a known
way. This operation can only be performed while in active selection (not after
preselection). -
False Duhduh!
Oh! 
A manual is existing? 
PS You don't need especially a manual : Just Look at the line help Page Bottom!
It's Write...
Line help is an another false Duhduh!

Mine didn't say that.

[/quote]Being able to put in "s5" in the VCB to control the number of sides before I create a circle or arc... Big Duh![/quote]
It does not work for me. As soon I type s it triggers scale tool. Btw If you call arc or circle vcb gives you option to type in number of segments. -
try 5s.
-
But what is the point as vcb gives you option for number of sides as soon as you select arc or circle.
-
I dunno, I use the model info options to alter my segments anyway.

Duh... I've never noticed you can collapse that Entity info box (mine is always expanded). Well, still better than the other way around.

My Duhduh of the day!
No exactly for SU but
As make a "snapshot" of a video is impossible
You can Save "as an image" when you make pause inside the viewer!
So I have need this today for this crazy teaser of Fredo6 and his new Bend Function!
(click image if scrallbars) -
Pause inside the viewer? What viewer?
-
Pause is normally existing in any viewer
Windows, Mpc, Quick Time etc...
But the crazy thing is I had never thought to use it before today with the "Print Screen" key
Because when you use the "Print Screen" key during an animation you have nothing as image! -
Depends on the mode you're using. If you're using hardware acceleration in whatever media player you use, you won't be able to make captures by just pressing "print screen". I recommend using the VLC player, it features screen capture and opens most formats.

i'm not sure this qualifies as a 'duh' moment because it's actually an application duh.. when i finally figured out this workaround though, it was a big relief..
it has to do with dividing arc/circles into a certain amount of segments.. say you need 16 segments in an arc.. sketchup may let you change the amount so you think you're good to go.. later in the model, you might need another arc with the same amount of segments but this time, sketchup won't let you change it to the same amount..
the workaround is this: change the amount to 1 higher than you need (17 instead of 16 for instance) THen change that arc to 16..
i have no idea why SU won't just let me divide into the proper amounts in the first place and i previously had some headache workarounds to deal with this..

cool to know that! ovoid some circular headaches

How about creating only "dummy" or "proxy" components?
So what is the best method for Proxy-ing? To create a 2 layers of different components and toggle each one in a scene or is it to reload and displace the proxy via "RELOAD" when it comes time to render?
Just Curious since I am dealing with that issue as we speak.
