Thanks! Rescaling helped. I didn't realize that working in small scale could be a problem - this solves also another problem I had (couldn't draw an arc because the scale, as in real life, was too small).

@box said: Does revizto have this capability. Simply put, can I use your excellent program as a way of viewing and manipulating models on an Android Tablet. Revizto Using Android or iOS you need to download our free vewer from App Store or Google play. This vewer is working with local projects on your tablet, downloaded diectly from Revizto gallery onto your tablet. You may view and navigate your scene. At any time you may connect your tablet to internet(Revizto) and using your 3D scene set new markers with comments, sync with cloud - other members of your team or your customer will see these markers as well, even they would connect later or connected in real time. Using tablets you will see the scene with almost the same quality like I posted above, however theare still present some limits due to limited power of tablets. Currently the main limit for Android and iOS is the size and complexity of project (as well as how accurate it was done in SU in terms of 3D modeling culture). There are not web viewers for Android or iOS devices. Revizto web viewer is working only for PC or Mac.

Thanks Mr. Gaieus

Thanks for Enlightening Me, hope the new version is great.

yup, my bad. actually, I did update most plugins and unloaded a whole bunch I never used... but it is odd that friday, before M, I was doing fine, hého, mine is not to reason why ! BTW 2013 is otherwise a great improvement & Layout has become usable without driving me back to smoking ! (the previous versions were so slow that I nearly started nicotine again & went back to bricscad instead) & no, I still have the same machine as before, so i imagine that on a super-duper machine with a vavavoom graphics card it would be even better. thanks

Just had a complete evaporation from using the explode command so I think there is more than meets the eye going on here. I will try the test you described on sunday when I am no longer tearing my hair out. Pain in the proverbial. V8 is the vanilla of choice now and this is going poof too so the model itself may have some gremlins in the drivers seat I suppose. Sod.

thanks alot i undrestand it and its done..

What operating system are you using?

Yes. I found it. BTW IMO the index should be as it was - in the pull down menu on the sketchucation website: Resources - Plugin Index, just below PluginStore.

As Dave pointed out, correcting your orientation will make things a lot easier and will enable the Standard camera views to work correctly. Go to Camera/Standard Views and click Front and you will see straight away how your axes should be orientated. There is even a tool bar for these views so with the click of one button you can shoot round to the back, or top, side etc

Ok. I have some updates. The block shadows does not appear when I select "Standard" Print Quality under the Print Preview dialog box. Shadows appear when I select "High Definition" or "Ultrahigh Definition". Currently I am sending my print output to a Canon Pixma iX4000 on A3+ glossy Canon paper. All sketchup models with complexity of this drawing level display the shadow problems on the Core i7 PC. Simpler models goes through ok "most" times. My thoughts are, once the cpu/gpu has successfully sent the high res print output to the printer, video should not be affected on the display. They almost use different paths altogether. Most times, the block shadows are very stubborn and I could be toggling the texture faces/shadows on/off for like 10 mins before it returns to normal. I have to do this and hope it reverts back to normal. Off Shadows, switch to hidden lines face texture, then switch to shaded with textures. And repeat after trying shadow on. Included one of my older models. Just tried and voila. Printed on high definition. [image: A5hM_photo1.JPG] [image: csww_photo2.JPG]

At a more advanced level maybe this series of books also could be useful: http://sketchucation.com/shop/books/30-intermediate/180-the-secrets-behind-car-modeling-in-sketchup-part-1-of-3

Look at the decimal symbol on PC 2 and compare it to the others. [image: 2Jqr_Dec.PNG]
