If anyone is still interested throw-to will do the trick... See link below. http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=51542

Yeah. I'd have forgotten about my first post long ago if I'd asked.

Rectangle tool, from Tools on surface, can do that.

There are no icons/bitmaps for those commands. While you're adding the new buttons to the toolbar right click on them and select "Edit Button Image..."

theres a petition of sorts here: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=15859

Yup, that's it. They are SU models (and thus can even be orbited in 3D). Make sure to explode them at the final stage as you will lose this orbiting feature after exploding.

@agrazdi said: Can you give us more details and tips of how this Vector rendering subjetc works, and what advantages can we get from using it ? Using a vector rendering also generates page size independent output. So the size of an exported PDF will be the same no matter what size the page is. The line quality will also stay the same no matter the page size.

Creating a clipping mask works if you want something partially obscured.

@cheffey said: I'm not sure how long it will be until we switch to 7, due to the economics of our industry. Will the free version of 7 work ok installed alongside the Pro version of 6? Yes.

Thanks I got the Idea, and now it works agraz

@agrazdi said: 1 - Is there a ruby that can be added to the BOX.rb and be able to select the initial point < like you do with the wall ruby > ?? instead of the origin or an x,y,z coordenates? 2 - Last one, is there a way to get with a Ruby the size of groups and components ? Thanks in advance agraz Yes, it's possible. Look into using a PickHelper or a InputPoint object to select the initial point. It depends on what you mean by "size"? Look up the bounds method for Groups and Components. A BoundingBox is a 3D box aligned to the global axis, and includes all the entities inside the Group.
