You probably missed this, too. If you want to place the same radius on other corners, double click near them.
Click on pic if it doesn't move.

Very cool!
I suppose I am not the only one!

I don't know if this is a new feature but I was pleasantly surprised to learn about it:

In the 3dWarehouse, select a model, look at the statistics in the panel on the right, if you hover / click on a tag (materials/components) you can import just one of those elements instead of the whole model.
Great feature if you just need 1 material of 1 element from a collection.

I know I should know this (being a top sketchukator and all--- Yeah, I am having a hard time containing my laughter too. . .)but as I said. .I know I should know this but I don't:

as I go between scenes with sections how can I toggle between them and keep the section plane window off so I dont have to manually turn them off each time? I have always found the scene menu in SU very confusing and conveluted and I can't seem to get this to work as I want. Help please? Thanks.

David, you can access them in the Outliner. Right click on the desired section cut in Outliner and activate it or deactivate as needed.

david_h

Dave. . thanks for the response and please excuse the follow up. . . I guess I'm not following, or i didn't make my question clear and I don't use outliiner that much. . .is there a way to save the scene updates so that the windows just stay off? I don't see how Outline does that for me.

Thx,

D

david_h

Never mind. .. I think I got it. I just update after the outliner thing. Correct?

Thx,

D

Oh. Sorry. I didn't get that part. The display of section planes is a style setting thing so edit the style to turn them off, update the style and update the scenes.

Actually, if you edit the style and then update the scene, you should get a warning that tells you the style has been edited and asking if you want to update the style or create a new one.
