Hans,
In answer to your email,yYou can select whether you want go use an image as an image or a texture
after you have selected File > Import. The image options re on the right of
the dialog box, under the Preview window.
You can't divide an image into parts in SketchUp, you can only choose to
project the image onto an object that is too small to display it all. If you
were then to scale the object bigger, the rest of the image would appear.
The method is as I described above...import the image nd scale it to
the size of the wall....then explode it, then group it to keep the geometry
separate from the next stages.
Draw a brick aligned with, for instance, the top left corner of the imported
image, group it, then duplicate that group to create the rest of the
wall...again lined up with the imported image. You can then sample the image
and paint it, brick by brick, onto all of the different groups.
Alternatively, you could simply divide the exploded image into many
rectangles using the line tool. You can then group each rectangle separately
and move them around.
I hope this is now clear
Thanks Alan.
Now is it clear to me.
Hans
