Toolbars

Lots -12+, it would be easier to show a screen shot I guess!
I have a fair amount of screen space so it still leaves plenty of space to model.

good idea there dylan, change of thread topic: post a screenshot of your SU setup.

here's mine.

Daniel, is that a psecial menu on th left? or just collapsed SU wlayers, components etc. windows?

Daniel · 10 Mar 2008, 20:19

You mean on the right? Those are collapsed windows. I use those often, and hate having to go to the main toolbar to open them.

Here's mine at the moment (i change it sometimes):

I use a 42" monitor, so displaying my toolbars with our posting restrictions is impossible.

I think you are using "SketchUp 10, " Solo,
that´s not fair,

remus · 2 Apr 2008, 19:12

wow, 42". i didnt know screens came that big. No wonder youve got space for all those toolbars

Julius · 2 Apr 2008, 19:41

42 inches?? i didn't know there were such wide screens too, it's bigger than my TV!

solo · 2 Apr 2008, 20:11

The mannequin is 11" (idea of scale)

I sit 3 ft away from screen.

I use 2x 8800 gtx's in sli.

admires solo's pimped out rig

Im kind of pondering getting another screen, do you find the extra space useful solo? would be a shame to blow a lod of cash and then not use it.

solo · 2 Apr 2008, 21:00

Absolutely!

I could never go back to 21", way too small.
No need for dual monitors, fantastic for viewport size rendering and line work overlappng in post edit.

Work with multiple open windows.

remus · 2 Apr 2008, 22:00

Looks like i sohuld be investing in another screen then

remus · 2 Apr 2008, 22:22

True, but i really dont like having big box monitors on my desk, it means i dont have anywhere to put all my crap. Id rather save up and get something decent.

I would go for the largest monitor you can get your hands on. I recently bought two 24" Soyo LCD's that make my life much easier. Less scrolling and switching. One is at home working in duet with my Dell laptop. The other is in the office next to a 16" diagonal CRT. The Soyo has a brightness number of 1000 and resolution of 1920x1200. Very bright and very sharp. Makes the detail jump for my old eyes.

I'd love to jump up to Solo's 42"
