Mate, you deserve it and falling on your feet is a proper result, at last. She seems to be the real deal so power to her elbow etc. At least we have a roof each and that is a result more than many get.

Version 2.1.5 - 07.20.2026 Added a SOG "profile" edit tool within the context menu for polygon slab-on-grade assemblies. Added a "Grid Snap" option with hotkey (End key) into the SOG profile edit tool. [image: 1784610485648-edit_profile_sog1.gif]

Sounds like a good update. Had a quick test. Definitely creates compelling images. My main feedback would be the UI. The font, in places, is tiny and the colour contrast between font color and UI background adds to the readability concerns. What I did like is the depth of options. But the free tier means you can't really test these. The voice on the Guide was difficult to listen to and I have yet to find a way to skip steps. As soon as you stop the Guide it resets to Step 1.

Version 1.2.2 - 07.19.2026 Added a floor "profile" edit tool within the context menu for floor assemblies. Added a "Grid Snap" option with hotkey (End key) into the floor profile edit tool.

I used to use AutoCAD 3D, or 3Ds Max for modeling back then and when a friend asked me to use @lastSfotware (Su 2004), I was shocked that this was too simple to be a serious tool, it seemed like the "Paint".. Then I saw some cool models/renders and realised I know nothing about SU!

Ta Rich, not so bad I have found zero then..........

@H-en-I said: it was not neccessary to use Ctrl Since toolbars were made customizeable, Ctrl (on Windows) has always been used as a modifier to copy tools from one toolbar to another.

Please explain clearly where you are having issues. A few questions first... Do you have the appropriate license file saved onto your computer. Have you tried validating it in the Tools submenu for that extension ? On trying what are the error messages [if any]. What does the Extensions > SketchUcation entry for SCFlicense management items report ? Bitte erläutern Sie genau, wobei Probleme auftreten. Zunächst ein paar Fragen: Haben Sie die entsprechende Lizenzdatei auf Ihrem Computer gespeichert? Haben Sie versucht, sie im Untermenü „Tools“ (Werkzeuge) für diese Erweiterung zu validieren? Welche Fehlermeldungen erscheinen dabei (falls vorhanden)? Was wird unter „Extensions“ (Erweiterungen) > „SketchUcation“ im Bereich der SCF-Lizenzverwaltung angezeigt?

Something I am looking at for a wall, is a dragon 'breaking through. the wall with a light source insert in the chest. Just mucking about tbh.

Just use regular maths. There is just one thing to remember. If you want to multiply a length, then the multiplication factor should be AFTER the length: 3m * 5 is valid and will give 15m 5 * 3m is invalid, because 5 will be interpreted s a length in the model units.
