      I'm sure this proposal will sound crazy, or just plain lazy. But, since I am not a coder/scripter, I get to think outside the box, and I get to ask all of the dumber than dirt questions:
      Everybody's always resorting to the temporary "scale up x10; scale down /10" workaround to make Sketchup behave to avoid various scale related modeling problems.
      Would it be possible to write a ruby to create a model environment that is already scaled up so that 1mm, 1/16" is really 10 times that, but the vcb "thinks" it is at its minimum precision threshold? Within the context of wishful thinking, does this make sense?

        Hello?Hello?...Hello?...Hello?
        Is there an echo in here?

        Don't tell me I have stumped the band?

          I'd say not really possible. At least not really a way to build it into the vcb/measurements box.

            Ok, Thanks Chris.
            Of course that is not the answer I wanted to see, considering all of the possibilities that have arisen in this forum. But, you never know...
