Components & File Size...
-
I have just finished making a few components of rain water goods which I intended to post up on the forum (see pic's)
Problem is for some reason the skp file is a massive 1.35Mb and I cant understand why? I have purged all unused materials, components & styles from the model and I'm still left with 1.35Mb. I have never compiled components in SketchUP before so maybe I have done something wrong??? There are only 15 components which is not a lot.
Any info would be appreciated as to how to get the file size down

P.S. The pics shown below is not the file in question. This "pic" file is 1.85Mb
I have created a new purged model with only one of each component, and its still 1.35Mb...

This is a snap shot of the offending 1.35Mb file...
As you can see there is nothing to it...

by the looks of it the circle/arc segments are quite high... u must have beefed them up before drawing??
as long as these arent gonna be rendered.. i think the default segments will work just fine! -
Yeah, segmented geometry (however "simple" it may look) can really trick you. Just a couple of extrusions here and intersections there and you end up with a file size of a town...
