       Thanks a lot everyone for solving my problem... thank you very much... i'll try all your ways.. pilou.. i tried your way after closing the i.e. window and it didn't work yesterday.. today i tried this while keeping the IExplorer window open ..switching tween IE and sketchup and was able to make it... i was making the straight line unequal to ramp length that's where i was having the problem.. but now the ramp is looking **ZABARDAST!!!** [Hindi for Extreme, Awesome or Supercool]...!!! :heart_eyes: **Bahut Bahut Dhanyawaad**[Dhanyawaad=Thank you. .. bahut bahut= very very]  :smile:

            Those pens were 'a bugger' - getting the line the right width... then they'd 'blob'.........

                    IF you were flush you got the pair of compasses with ruling-pen nib so you could [try] to draw inked circles... πŸ˜’ πŸ˜’

                            I got one of them things. Used it in my first year of modelmaking to paint window frames on an architectural building. Never used them before - but found some in the old storage of the office I work at now. They initially caused a bit of a mystery. πŸ˜„

                                    I have a few ruling pens. Cantankerous things. Now that we have Photoshop and Render engines. .. they have gone the way of the AirBrush, The Speedball nib and the and the french Curve. Funny. .. drafting stores still charge for them like they were still in demand.

                                    But we digress. . .

                                    If I make it look easy...It is probably easy
