Problem solve! Thank you, you're a great help!

Hello vash

To get rid of those endpoints, go window->styles->edit then deselect endpoints. Its worth deselecting profiles while your at it, as they slow performance slightly and dont look particularly nice.

Hi Afaque and welcome.

Here is the plugin (attached at the bottom of the first post):
http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?p=144180#p144180

Note that in order to use it, you'll also need to install this plugin:

Both have folders and rb files inside; everything should go unchanged (i.e. keeping folder structure and all) directly under the Plugins folder.

Hi All!! This is SuMan from India..
Gud to be a member of this forum and looking forward to enhance my sketchup skills through your help ...
I use SU7 and want to know if there is any way to open the SU7 file in SU6 which can be edited in SU6..

ThnQ,

remus

Welcome SUman,

If you go file->save as then change the format to SU 6 you will then be able to open your SU7 files in SU6.

Hello Nora and welcome.

Can't you see anything when drawing (say) a line either?

Could you try this test: Go to Window > Preferences > OpenGL and uncheck "Hardware acceleration". If this "seems" to help, try to update your video driver rather than leaving it like this (because without HW acceleration SU can be slower).

What video card do you have by the way?

ThnXX for the reply but the file is opening as a read only file in SU6 when saved in this manner..

remus

Did you close SU7 before opening it in SU6? windows doesnt like you having the same (write enabled) file open in 2 different programs.

Hi Jack and welcome to the forums.

Indeed Dave can make SU look a fantastic tool (which it is actually) so I'm not surprised. To make sure you get the "most" out of SCF, I registered you at the Woodworking forum (which is subscription based and I saw you were not a member of it yet).

I have been using sketchup for a few years now as a furniture designer/manufacturer,and am keen to find information on using SU models for CNC routing.

SU is by far and away the best 3d design platform for furniture

P.S any chance I can get on the woodworkers forum too? I am having trouble finding the login page

remus

Evening(or morning/afternnon depending on where you are) bluecollar,

you can get to the woodworkers forum by going to the user control panel (top left of the forum) then going to usergroups and signing up from there.
