      Hi there,

      I'm new to sketchup and I was trying to use the paintbucket on a cabinet I had just made. My problem is that when I use the paintbucket on a latch for my cabinet door it x rays only certain parts of my cabinet door. Makes it look really crappy. Is it something im doing wrong or is it a setting i have? Heres a screenshot of what it looks like. http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd186/s0uldev0ur/Errorinsketchup.jpg
      I just want it to be a solid color without the xray lines through it. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

        Rsdevour,

        From that tiny image I cannot see too much but what I suspect from those little lines on the top of the face is that there are hidden lines on it thus it will only paint one at a time. Check out View > Hidden geometry to verify this.

        If so, you must have made some mistake during modeling since that face seems that it should be flat and there shouldn't be hidden lines there.

        Gai...

          Thanks for the quick response Gaieus!
          I tried your hidden geometry. And I think I just messed up on building it. Must be my latches are not made right because I painted them white and now the entire door is a solid white which is what i wanted in the first place. But as soon as I paint the latches grey it makes those lines. So I figure ill remake the latch and try again to see if it does the same thing. Really appreciate the fast response!
