Collapsing an inflatable
-
I have designed an inflatable and I need to show it partially inflated in some of the renderings. Does anyone have any suggestions for technique or a plugin suggestion?
Cheers

Hard to make suggestions without seeing what it looks like and how it was modeled. Possibly the scale tool………
-
The scale tool essentially flattens objects straight down. Inflatables do not deflate in this manner. Anything that deflates naturally has creases, folds, bends, etc.
The answer seems to be that it cannot be done in sketchup.

@Salient Clothworks would do it. Note it hasn't been updated for 2024 as yet.

That's great, thank you!

Now that Clothworks has been updated for 2024 here is a very simple example.
