      Question,
      Is there a way to create Height Maps with the Free version of Sketchup, a plug-in perhaps? I've done some searching and it seems everyone uses a combination of tools and other tricks. I hear SU Pro may have it native?

      If there isn't one I might just write my own for something I'm tinkering with, but it would be nice to save the time.
      

      Thoughts?

      Sketchy.

            Thanks for the responses.
            The Bitmap to mesh is exactly what I was looking for =). The other is for exporting, but still looks pretty useful.

            Thank you.
