      Hi everybody :
      I'm having a problem re-modelling an object. It concerns a ring that I created. I created the ring. But it have sharp edges. I found it easier to create another model of the ring, but with rounded edges. Saved the "new" ring in the Household folder. DELETED the .skb file. Leaving the 'new' ring model (an .skp file). When I tried to import the 'new' ring into the project, I kept getting the old ring (with the SHARP edges). I DELETED the old .skp / .skb file from the RECYCLE BIN. But, STILL the old 'ring' kept being imported into the model (instead of the 'new' ring).
      Advice ?

        It sounds like it might be some sort of memory or cache problem. You don't have it saved as a component, do you?
        One thing I could suggest is that instead of trying to import the new ring, you open it in a separate file, then copy / paste it into the project file. You'll have to resave the imported geometry as a new component if you need it to be.
