      Hi there
      I use Skalp these days to create section cuts but am still missing a great feature that the old RichSection plugin (which seems to not be supported for SU2016) used to have.

      The feature creates dotted or dashed projection lines of elements that are behind or in front of the section plane... is there another way of doing this i.e. sketchup native settings or another plugin? I would like to use this to indicate roof lines over a floor plan...

      Thank you

      David

          Hmm, thanks ColorEdge looks like great tool... although it is manual drawing tool (i.e. not automatically generated by the section cut) it will still tie me over for a little while. I have just learned from the guys from Skalp that they are planning to include the projected line feature that I was talking about into their upcoming Skalp release. See image supplied by Skalp.

          Thanks for sharing πŸ‘


          This Skalp version will go in beta very soon.

            David, see the youtube video linked to below...

            Delivery date of SKALP v1.5 not accurate at the link below, but estimted to be around basecamp 2016 IIRC.
