En fait non, cela ne marche pas! Quand on replace les volumes obtenus sur la courbe de départ il y a des écarts! Désolé! Il va donc falloir modifier le fichier smustard_PathCopy.rb de Smustard! [image: CYqC_div2.jpg]

@toddbg said: Thanks Jim - In what way could the axes be better positioned. I'm mor than happy to clean this up so that it becomes a useful model. Actually, it looks good. Not sure what I meant at the time... and thanks to you I learned some new tricks playing with this DC.

I would love to be able to group and organize scenes. Of course, I would love to group and organize layers natively, too...

Sweet, just changing 16:9 to custom allows for the larger exports. Appreciate the help!

nice to know...

I'm still not sure there's an issue. I didn't see it at all when I tested it. Here's an example. I don't see any cropping of the image in the video (in the ZIP file) do you? [image: vFgZ_Swedishstool1.png] [image: UCtB_Swedishstool2.png] [image: n8FU_Swedishstool3.png] I set the viewport to 1280 x 720 and exported these images at screen size. Then I exported the video. Is it possible you're setting the window instead of the viewport to your video size? At least based on my results there's nothing that needs to be fixed by Trimble. Mp4 video from scenes

On that tv show "The Profit" the guy said he bought a 3D printer for $250,000. It was for toy prototyping.

Very cool cars' collection! [image: p0z1_renault.jpg]

Well done Mickael.

Hi: Based on what I think you are asking, perhaps this topic: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=80%26amp;t=57758 Could be related?

Wrong answer : value1==value2 will return TRUE or FALSE Correction : this was for ruby, not for dynamic components

@box said: @keithwins said: AH! If the toolbar dialog is open, it works like you said. If it's closed (which I'd done, since it didn't seem to buy me anything) it works like I said. So I can move tools around without ever opening the toolbar dialog using Alt. Thanks for sticking with me! Out of the mouths of babes and all that, you've stumbled across a handy feature there. Being able to move tools around from bar to bar without opening the toolbar dialog is something I would never have guessed at. +1.......have to try and remember this........and what's in a name...

Upload model to dropbox or box.com and share a link please. See if we can help you out before your deadline. Any "complex" model slows down when shaded. If it's unreasonably slow then you'll have to do something about it. I almost always navigate a complex model in monochrome mode. It's because SU is a total arse and doesn't like anything "complex". How dare you model anything more than a cube?! Upload model and I'll have a look.

You might want to check with the suppliers of Mazaik and see if they've issued an updated version of the plugin. SU2014 uses Ruby 2.0 while SU8 used an older and now unsupported version of Ruby. This required many plugins to be updated to meet the newer Ruby standards. There have been many folks reporting errors on plugins they've copied over from an older version of SketchUp and the standard advice which has been repeated on SCF ad nauseum is to not copy plugins but download fresh versions.

When you say a "rendered video walkthrough" do you talk of something like this ? If yes LightUp will be fine for you! It can made even a rendered video walkthrough interactive by the user who has not Sketchup or LightUp !!!

You can either download the file with the red Download button and then use Install Extension under Preferences>Extensions to install it or, better yet, install the Sketchucation Plugin Store plugin from the link at the top of the this page and let it automatically install plugins for you. BTW, please complete your profile with OS and SU version. It'll be helpful in the future.

@unknownuser said: ntxdave, If I understand.....why not look at creating a.pdf "portfolio" It will require you to have Adobe Acrobat Pro (maybe you have already?) If you create your "slides" (pages) in LO and either export to .pdf or print to .pdf you can then convert the file to a .pdf portfolio that you can share wih your clients/etc. Backgrounds/colors/styles of the portfolio can be custom or just use stock templates. Upload a small .pdf file and I can quickly create a portfolio if you like. C I appreciate your reply (especially since it was the only one ) but this is not at all the direction I am looking to go. I did go take a look at Portfolio. I do not want a static file like a PDF. No animation of the objects on the presentation screen and no 3D objects. We already use PDF files for "static" information for our customers. I am looking for a PowerPoint/Keynote type of product that will allow me to insert SU (or other 3D modeling) models/components that can be displayed and manipulated during a presentation. I do not see PDF as a "real" presentation package in any sense. If I am wrong, I would be happy to be corrected/updated. Since I got no other responses, I am going to make an effort to go define how I would like to see enhanced in LayOut, or a new presentation product offering that would more fully exploit SU models. Part of my dilemma though is where to post it. I toying with the idea of putting together some UI suggestions for what I would like to see.
