HELLS TO THE YEAH! I had to reinstall and ran into this error. Thanks for the tip! I Sketchucation

Here the result A little Offset image 24 (test file) Perfection is not existing in this word Ps For the theorie of the Go Game I you look the Scene 55 : Black seems to win : 17 to 13 so 4 points But no possibility to make equality at this diabolic game! Fact to play first (Black)gives you 4.5 points' advantage! So Black is losting by 0.5 point! Partie Go.skp

I think it swings through an angle of about 100° between open and closed. You ought to be able to use pretty much the same parameters...maybe changing 100 to 180. Thanks Allen I will take a look and see if it works for me. Jordan,

@gaieus said: For such, organic "sculpting" I could suggest two plugins (both cost a bit of money but not much). One is Vertex tools which is perfect for terrain shaping and the other is Artisan that is a more generic but extremely powerful organic tool. For such "organic" modeelling and complex textures, I also suggest checking out Blender. It's free, open-source software, and may better suit what you want to do - though be warned, it is a mightily complex bit of kit, so not half as easy to learn/use as Sketchup! It will also happily import Collada or OBJ exports from Sketchup - so you can have the best of both worlds; using SU for ease of modelling, and Blender for the "fairy dust" to make things look prettier.

best option is (in AutoCAD) to select all the items you want to import, then "w" write-block to a new file, and specify 2004 version dwg file in the options. Hope that helps.

Ah, I now see what you mean. See the section only. Sorry Dave. Yes, you are perfectly right. Since the section cut face is a group itself, it can be displayed without the rest of the model (in fact, there is a setting to put it on a separate layer which makes it even easier)

@tig said: @thomthom said: @gilles said: This plugin does this: http://rhin.crai.archi.fr/rld/plugin_details.php?id=156 Hmm.... That plugin extends quite a few of the base SketchUp classes. Risky stuff. I've a tweaked version that avoids all base class messing on... If anyone wants a copy PM me... I'll ave a copy if you don't mind Tig

Thanks @ely862me, it was able to be hidden by clicking on it and saying "Hide", easy fix! Strange thing is SP is installed to the plugins folder but no toolbars are present in SU. All components were modeled by me (not taken from 3D Warehouse or online). So I am not sure what the deal is, at least if we can hide it then it should be OK for now. Thanks!

Excepted that it seems we can't buy SU PRO right now...it gives me an error page ! Edit : After succeeding to reach the page, it seems that the coupon doesn't work !! Maybe too soon...

Hi Jeff I think what you are experiencing may have to do with a bug I ran into recently. Apparently windows and mac versions of sketchup have different ways of measuring text height! Simple test. Create a 3d object on the pc, using arial for example. Note the text height used. Save the file. Open that same file on a mac. Try and recreate the same text, using the previous parameters. Compare. ,!!! No matter what you try, they will not match.

Hi folks. Be aware that the Generate Report function works correctly only if you use the dot as the decimal separator and the coma as the list separator. I was set like in many European country, using the coma as the decimal separator and the semi-colon as the list seprator and was never able to generate a usefull report. When doing so, all the info was dumped in only one column. Not very usefull. Just ideas.

You guys are GREAT. Thanks so much. I got one to work now I need to spend time doing the rest. Karen

GREAT, thanks a lot TIG, i'll give it a try in a minute @dave r said: Why do you need the subgroups to be on a layer if their top group is on that layer. Turning off the visibility of the top group's layer will have the same impact whether the subgroups are on that layer or not. It's about importing a skp-file to 3ds Max where 3ds splits up all groups with subgroups into seperate objects- and puts them to the layer each group was put on in SU. For toggeling visibility it would have been enough to change the layer of the top-group, you're right.

Hi, try this one for example. Just put the downloaded file in the plugins folder. You'll find an option "contours" in the plugins menu.

rain can be simulated through the style builder. you can most likely find them already built.
