Virtual chair
-
Why so?
-
cushions are of course necessary on it?
-
Are you just using these various arrangements of your chair to practice using SketchUp or is there some other goal in mind?
-
To practice and it became like an addiction.Hope this doesn't bother.
-
It's no bother at all. I was just wondering what you are working at with all these different arrangements but no real descriptions.
As for practicing SketchUp, you might want to invest a little time in working with materials. The arm rests for example could use some help in the wood grain department.

Please my english is very basic. What do you mean by "The arm rests... in the wood grain department". Good opportunity to learn English.
-
Sorry. The wood grain direction on the arm rests runs the wrong direction. It does on many of the other parts as well. I was just suggesting that you could fix that.

I smell a WTF on it's way!

Defective keyboard. I fixed it. -
Luckily I've preserved for prosperity...
although now you have the power to delete others posts and even ban me. I'd suggest option #1
-
Option 1? Preserved for posterior?
-
No WTF on it's way.

When I saw this video I realize instantantly that " SU is a twisted redondance" and the secret is on twIStEd not on redondance. Thanks Solo.

Please,how to assign an icon to a plugin in sketchup ?
-
Which plugin?
-
Bonjour Dave,
My question is: How to make a new plugin, once installed, visible in toolbar via an icon.
Hope this make sens.
-
Are you planning to write the plugin? If so, you should inquire in the Plugins forum. If you have installed a plugin and it has a toolbar or even a single btton associated with it, you should first go to Preferences>Extensions and check all of the boxes you find there. (That's the easiest thing to tell you.) Then go to View>Toolbars and select the desired toolbar to turn it on.
If you have installed a plugin that doesn't have a toolbar associated with it, I suppose you could edit it and add a toolbar button or more but again, you should inquire about this in the Plugins forum.
-
Thanks for the help. It's more clear now.

Woodgrain, a headache for me. PLEASE, would someone explain the lexique and composition of the grain with a file like this attached.
-
I'm not exactly sure what you want to know about wood grain. Do you want to know the names for different methods of cutting? Or are you just thinking about my comment on correcting the grain direction in your model?
If it is the latter, the point is that the grain should run the long direction on the part, not across it. There are two reasons for this. First, it is usually difficult if not impossible to find boards wide enough to allow parts to be cut out across the grain. The most important reason, though, is that wood doesn't have much strength across the grain but it has a great deal of strength along the grain.
Suppose your chairs were built with the grain running across the arm rests as you show. If someone were to sit on the arm rest, they would likely break it.
If you are more interested in learning about methods of cutting logs into boards, you might want to take a look at sites like this and this for examples.
