The "Duh!" thread (aka the Doh! thread)

Interesting. I do not have that "duh moment" reading this.

same here… more like an "uhhhhh
moment"

I guess I could call this "The Well I'll be Darn Thread". I have used Sketchup since V 4. And I know that the text tool will give me info on geometry. Like length, area, but today, surprise, I used the text tool on the apex of an angle and I got the following, the degrees of the angle in the text box. Never saw that before, and I would have an illustration to show you if I could get the text tool to do it again.

I was reading a topic and realized that I did not understand a word.
Then looked up and also realized I was in the Developers Forum.

Found a cool one today.
Copy a line over and type 6" to set the distance. Then type *10 to array it 10 times.
What I already knew was that you can type *8 or *4 or whatever to adjust the number of arrayed items.
However I just found out that if you type 3" or 10" it will keep your array but adjust the spacing. Pretty sweet!

Duh!
That is sweet!
The manual doesn't even mention this!

It even works with circular arrays - just type in the angle in degrees

I just wish you found this last week, when I needed it.

I learned that just a couple months ago from Dave R at a local meetup

Shift + Eraser to smooth...
I know that this has always been there, but I just discovered it recently (Duh!) thanks to another thread here... I cannot tell you how many times I have tweaked, and redone a push/pull or follow me command just to minimize the number of lines on a solid!
Ah... feels good to share my stupidity!

Ctrl+ eraser is to smooth. Shift+eraser is to hide.
