      Hi,

      I was wondering if someone had a tip how to bulge a face to make a bump/ rounded surface? It doesn't have to be a regular shape. (See jpg.)

      Many thanks for your help!

        I like the Soap Skin Bubble plugin, though I always forget how to use it.

        Also, you could use the sandbox tools. They com standard with SketchUp since version 5. Draw a "from scratch" grid. Then intersect the grid onto your planter area. Then use the smoove tool to make a mound. you have to be careful though as the smoove tool will lift the edges off the ground surface, which is rarely desirable.

        Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.

          Capture.PNG here I drew some vertical arcs from end/mid-points to outline the 'bulge'...
