Yes. Absolutely. My very close friend Richard, lives in Tokyo. Fortunately he's alright, but he said it was extremely shocking. Odly enough, another very good friend Mike, was in Christchurch when that earthquake struck. His wife was visiting family when that quake struck. They got out just in time before their whole house collapsed. I think the whole family are still in a tent in the back garden. We must design and engineer buildings that withstand almost anything our planet throws at us, if we are to survive.

No, DBase, at least the last one I used, was not OOPS. Big difference. Actually Ruby is easier to use, misuse, and abuse:-)

Just a quick follow up question regarding this. What if you wanted to work on a model and have it be symmetrical, but have it update live without the need of of making it a component. Much like that found on other 3D applications such Blender,3DS Max or even Maya.

I got attacked on my gmail account last month. Had to jump through hoops to get it sorted Must be only the really influential folks getting fingered!

Thanks Tig..I think I feel a little better now..

Hi folks. SketchUp Viewer ? Just ideas.

I would suggest this. It is one of the best scripts I use. http://www.smustard.com/script/ProfileBuilder Scott

Cola is enough for me, I'm an anti-drinker.

Mr Pilou> Thank you for the tip..It was pretty cool..

It's worth a google on the associated 'fata morgana' for some interesting 'city in the sky' images. [image: fata_morgana_04.jpg] [image: mirage506.jpg]

@frederik said: You might also find the free XnView handy... Yes, it's very handy if you use HDR's ... since no other image viewers don't create thumbnails for HDR-s

This might work but I don't think Sketchup is really an uprez utility - try the open source SmillaEnlarger ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/imageenlarger/ ) instead - or if you're made of money, Genuine Fractals. Regards - Martin
