    Hi George and welcome. Feel free to ask any questions (even if they seem to be dumb) about general things here in the Newbie Forum (after all, this is why we set it up). We also have a Woodworking Forum (I have just added you to the Woodworkers Usergroup) down on the main index - any special questions could go there (there are some nice and helpful folks there, too).

    Unusually the first thing to test is the graphic card - as it's the cause in 90% + of the cases.

    Well I fixed it. I had to install SETPOINT for my mx revolution mouse. (did not do that on my desktop though) And I had to set the middle mouse to 'common button' so CSS gave me a nice clue TY

    From Wikipedia: Reflection symmetry Main article: reflection symmetry Reflection symmetry, mirror symmetry, mirror-image symmetry, or bilateral symmetry is symmetry with respect to reflection. More fuel for the fire.

    If you have a planar surface, as in the 'top' of your plateau, that is missing vertices you can use SU's native sandbox tools to 'add detail'. This will then allow you to use Thom's tool. There are other means to adding vertices to planar surfaces but it's best to understand SU's native tools first IMO.

    Sorry, I am new to meshlab, also. I just downloaded the other day and all I have been able to do is read some of the information from the site and from Wikipedia. I know from other reading that somewhere along the way during transfers, this polygon problem will pile up on you. I think you were talking about coplanar faces. I took this to mean you have a bunch of superfluous edges subdividing faces. There are some render apps that do not tolerate triangles and others that do not tolerate quads. Frankly, I am bumfuzzled. But, since this topic is started, you will almost certainly get more qualified advice.

    Since you scaled the component "from outside" (when resized the whole model), it has now a different size than the definition would have. SU is simply asking you if you want to save it like this (i.e. keeping this scale) or should it save it as the definitions defines its original scale.

    Thanks Gaieus. I didn't know lock was applied only to Groups and components. I grouped the surface and Lock was available.

    The same here with the model under "Series #2" (the curved hotel building) here: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=264568#p264568 It was really a time saver and made it extremely easy to do it with the new feature.
