Hello all!

I´ve been constructing a catalog of furnitures for the place I work, and the dynamic components have presented a weird bug.
When I insert one component from the 3D Warehouse, change one of its atributes, and then add another dynamic component, if I try to change its atributes, it doesn´t work for the whole component.

Don´t know why this happens, or if it´s a previously mentioned bug (if it is, I´m sorry for creating another post for it, didn´t find it on previous posts).

Thanks

Thank you, Dale!

I´ll look up this information about the Idea Center... as far as I´ve researched, i can create a library of objetcs there (which I was also trying to find out how to do... ) but I haven´t managed to import any SU files yet.

I´m aware that on version 10 the quality of that import is perfect, but when I find out about that import on V9 I´ll update this post!

Thank you so much for the help!

Hello!

Don´t know if this topic has already been brought, but I was wondering if there´s a plugin or something like that that will enable to make a library on sketch up that is compatible with 20-20 Design version 9.
I´m aware that version 10 has the feature of importing files from sketch up and auto cad, but if there was one to be used in version 9, would be better.
The reason I need this is because i have to develop a library of furnitures that is compatible with SU and 20-20 Design, or else I´ll have to make two. I am still deciding where is better to make it, SU or 20-20... don´t really know what would be better 'Cause as far as I know I´d have to buy an extension of 20-20 to be able to make a catalog there...

If anyone knows anything about this, I´d be very thankful

Aetria,

Welcome to the Sketchucation forums! You might take your plugin idea to the "Plugins" Subforum (under the "Resources" Forum). You probably have to restate it (maybe pictures would help) unless someone knows about the other software and that specific feature. People usually post ideas like that as "[REQ]", for "request"--- then someone directs them to a plugin or someone might even create a plugin, if they like your idea Good luck.

Is this for "parametric" manipulation, or do you just want to stretch an object without changing edge dimensions (like making a window wider without widening the frame)?

Peter

Thank you, Pbacot!

Sorry it took so long for me to answer...
I´ll do a research on the plugins subforum
thanks for the tips! i´m still new in this forum stuff haha

Well, what i managed to find about that parametric manipulation is that when you use it you change the whole object, not an specific part of it(that´s what i found, maybe it does something else...)
That exaclty what I wanted to do (the part about the window)! My goal is to be able to edit the component whithout editing all its measures...

Thanks again!

Camila

Very nice! It´s going to be amazingly useful

Hi all!

I´m a design student and just joined the forum!
I just started an internship and never before used SU haha
So I´m learning slowly but faster than I expected (at least i hope so haha)

Therefore, I already got a lot of doubts about some stuff HAHA

My goal is to elaborate an library of components, but I need to edit them more freely, for example, if I make a box composed of 4 separated pieces, i wanted to edit the measures as the software Armarius... not scaling, but like opening an box to change the lateral measures, only the thickness and such.
I´ve tried searching for an plugin that does that, but haven´t been sucessfull yet... anyone knows if there is such plugin that does something similar to that? (don´t know if I was clear enough... maybe even I don´t know what I want exactly HAHA)

Thanks
