It should be present now. Sorry, my profile was not set correctly

Ah yes...much better. Did you get those ACO files I sent the other day? If so, do you think they will be of use?

Paul Russam

Didier,
Yep that did it.

Gaieus

Paul, you rule!
Thanks a lot!

I have checked some of these people's preference settings and they say "members cannot send PM".

Well, that's their choice(and when one signs up to a "new" forum, tries to be "cautious" too) so this might be the case - they just "left it like that".

There is an option here (for admins) to "try a user's permissions" - and both Coen and I did it (as posted above) with todamgood4U but it seems that it only applies to "general" board, moderators or admins permissions and as I checked, I could see Didier.

Anyway, the problem seems to have been solved so thank you again!

Hi todamgood4U,
Yes I got them.
As soon as I've debugged an ACO C++ reader that converts swatches files to hexa colors, I'll be able to generate the library (I can read the colors by now, but there's a bug to read their names).
Regards,

thanks for the zips, Paul. is there any reason why they take so long to extract? they seem only small files.....

I seem to recall browsing a message here that said if the files for Moore colours were available in any format, we could get help getting them into an importable format for Sketchup?
On http://www.bejaminmoore.com in the designers section, the palettes are offered in different formats including .acb for AutoCad, .aco for Photoshop and a zipped file for Lightworks.
I am a working designer and I use exclusively Moore and C2(readily available in .jpg) colours so it would be FABULOUS to be able to import Moore.
Thanks for any help you can give us Moore needers.

LINK DELETED<<

this is for a website I stumbled accross on the Benjamin Moore site called Tectonic Studio. It has .jpg's for the whole Moore collection enlargeable and saveable and it offers other products too such as flooring and carpet - you can also order physical samples from the site.

Thank you- this is very useful! I was going to do this myself but Sketchup only allows you to add materials to a collection one at a time!
