Tiny little things
-
my definite favourit for SketchUp 7 is, that bounding boxes of groups and components align to newly defined coordinate axes.
because, if you allign your axes to a different angle, the bounding boxes of new groups/components still follow the original axes. thats why I rather change the sun direction than position the model to its correct compass orientation...

i second remus' movement: SU sould infer a cube when push/pulling.
even though its not small, i would like to have an option to make objects solid, like filled with stuff, not made out of infinitly thin faces. that way, when i get my hands on a 3-D printer, i dont have to export to a solids modeler.

I finished days ago james...ive just been relaxing for the weekend, and trying to think of cool things to do in SU of course.

And what did you get for the paper? Unless it is the best mark, I'll ban you till the end of the semester!
BTW - I might be very tired )travelling all day and still up at 2 am) but I don't get what you mean by inferencing a cube.
-
gaieus, what remus means is this: when you push/pull a perfect square, it sould infer when it is a perfect cube. like when you are using the rectange tool, it will infer a "golden section" or "square". see what we mean?
i cant wait to get my greedy little hands on a 3-D printer!!!...
-
Ah, I see. Makes sense. The cube is somewhat easy to create however with either entering precise values to the VCB or inferencing with other geometry but indeed I have missed the golden section inference quite a lot of times and the workaround for that is rather cumbersome.
Thanks for clarifying it (still very tired).
-
Hopes this makes sense: the ability to select faces along an axis using the arrow keys.
-
oh, i see! like you use one of the axis inference keys (ie: up/down for blue axis) and it selects all the faces parallel to that axis. right? i never thought of that, thats a great idea. good thinking, stinky.

Thanks, Ygor.

This would be nice too: faster exploding. Probably been mentioned a couple of times before.
