      What I wonder SKindigo do is that it might not properly reset the aspect ratio - but instead matches the camera aspect ratio tot he SU viewport ratio. After you use SKindigo to reset, what happens if you resize the SU window?

      everything works as expected afterwards..

      i think whaat did something with setting the aspect ratio and not the resetting of it?

      if i use skindigo to set the aspect ratio then reset via the ruby line using 'Sketchup.active_model.active_view.camera.aspect_ratio=0.0', the model will then zoom out.. i can set the aspect ratio via skindgo then reset using a method other than skindigo and the SU view will infact continue to zoom out

      fwiw, in skindigo, it's not asking for an aspect ratio per se.. it's asking for render output dimensions in pixel size (1024x768 etc.).. the grey bars do appear however and resetting with rick's ruby etc does clear the bars.

        I think I'll have to have a look at Skindigo. sounds like it's correcting SU's odd behaviour. I'm qurious to study the other camera properties to see what's going on.

        So when you set SKindigo's render output to 1024x768, then Sketchup.active_model.active_view.camera.aspect_ratio returns 1.3333, right?
