      Hello,

      OK i have a simple issue that seems to be hard to fix. The company I work for is looking to use Sketchup for editing maps in junction with Google earth. But i am unable to get lines drawn using the line tool to be thicker and a different color without making the outlines of all my other objects also thicker and another color I'm not sure if there is a plugin to fix this or an easy fix I have failed to find. I would also like to either hide or change the color of the outline for 3d text sense the normal text box will not port to Google earth.

      Thanks for any help possible.

        I can suggest TIGs 2d tools. In it is a couple of tools for changing a linestyle, with context menu access to settings. Find this plugin in the Sketchucation Plugin Store, and read about it in the more info link.
        Not sure about your question on text. Actually, not sure if the above is exactly what you need.

        I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

          Well we actual found that if you make the outline by material it dose what we wanted it to in that you can make a line a different color and in turn make your text a solid color at any zoomed out or close up level.

          Thanks for the help.
