Okay I think I got a work around. I took the (Human Model) Collada file w/textures, that sketchup didn't map the texture to the model and imported it into blender. I then exported it out of blender as a Collada file, then import that into sketchup and it worked. The texture mapped to the model the way it should. Here's a render(Rendered using Twilight Render)of the model. Looks pretty good, I just used some basic settings. I'm going to compare the file and see just how there different in the code.

@Box Yes thank you, indeed I could have talked about this setting

You might try contacting SketchUp Customer support to see if they have some sort of option for you.

Thank you! You are always so helpful.

Thank you so much, that was a big help! One other thing. There is the contour tool for pulling or pushing natural shapes but there there a way of grading along on straight line? @rich o brien said: [image: NtI9WoQ.png] Rotate your From Scratch mesh to slope then select the area you need to flatten and rotate it.

End of Support policy End of Support affects all SketchUp products installed on your desktop PC or Mac. When "End of Support" happens, the product you are using goes from being "Supported" to "Unsupported". Going forward, SketchUp desktop products will become unsupported on January 31st of the third year after the product's release year. For example, SketchUp 2022's End of Support date is January 31, 2025. when i used the sketchup 19 it got expired and reinstall can't be complete with fredo latest version, so i had installed the skechup 23 verion and used the fredo6 plugins (animator) are easy to enable.

I told it I was ok switching the letter G from its hardwired designation when I made the shortcut. I have always had to manually redo shortcuts on new installs so nothing new there. it was just odd that the selection function was funky until I undid and redid the shortcut. all good now though. p

Here’s my “tongue in cheek” example…. Of course the image had to be black and white. [image: KoVN_brutalistchallange_BampW.jpg]

You're a touch late to the party on this, the logo changed on a previous release and I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it to change back.

Nice one Box.

Thanks TIG. Yes, it was a copy and paste job and I know that's not the way you're supposed to do it. I did find the culprit and it wasn't a plugin but operator error. I had checked off "Replace Push/Pull Tool" in SUbD Preferences last night. All back to normal now. I guess if anyone has the same issue they can find it here now. Now I have to fix (rearrange) the tool bar mess I created. [image: xjoO_SUbD-Preferences.jpg]

@dave r said: Each version of SketchUp installs as a separate program. It doesn't overwrite the previous version. When I migrate to a new version I make a screen shot of the previous version showing my toolbar arrangement. Then I import that image into the new one to use as a reference for placing my toolbars. Makes it easier to see what goes where. I also use it as a time to do some cleaning to get rid of tools I don't really need on my toolbars. I understand and that is what I do. However even though I am fairly proficient with SU Prro it really puts me off updating my software. Needs a rethink.

Installed SU 2022 and everything went smoothly. Copied my SU 2021 plugins and only had to re-enter my Medeek licenses. Everything else is working fine with what I checked so far: Profile Builder 3, Thea Render; Instant Architect; Cloth Works; Medeek Wall, Foundation and Truss; and Skatter 2. Seems a little faster. The Tag tool is really handy to change objects, groups or components to the tag your currently set on and works like a "magic wand."

Have you reached out to Lumion staff with your issues? They have been super helpful for me in the past when I ran into hardware issues. I do not have any special settings that I have done with my GPU. Pretty much the default settings. if I remember correctly I just asked the lumion forum for advice on specific settings for my gpu and followed their diections to just change one or two setting to either off or on. I was not having any issues when I asked and did not see any changes in performance when I adjusted the settings. I would Highly recommend reaching out to the Lumion staff. p

Not SVG. That's vector based.
