Can someone who is a member of facefaq let me know how he is, I cannot see his page as facefaq tells me I must be a member. Helpful, not.
I had a look before.
Ambulatory after 2 ops. In good spirits, giving the nurses a hard time:)
He did a live FB video, still has his sense of humour. All good it seems.

Shouldn't be that hard anymore, just make a bundle and auto install all at once from Sketchucation, then go to My Extensions in EW and auto install all them.
All your shortcuts should carry over from your previous setup.
Then you just need to reset your toolbars.
Sitting here right now giving SU individual permissions to auto(Sic)install my bundle.
On 43 of 67 so far.
Then have to go through them and disable the ones I dont use often.
Already done the Trimble EW thing, painfully clunky.
I stick to my opinion... a PITA

Toggle Endpoints is a plugin.

Bugger! You got me AGAIN.
But thanks.
Having to reset everything each year is a PITA
The shortcut item: 'Tools/Toggle Endpoints' seems to be missing.
Is this a bug, an omission or am I missing something?
I was badly disappointed when Google made SketchUp free. I understand why, but I think it seriously undermined the adoption of 3D by professionals. "What, that free program?" was the reaction I often got when trying to sell my services to clients. You still hear it even now.
So Trimble moving away for support from 'Make' doesn't defrost my Kelvinator.
As for SU2018, the release notes seem to show many improvements which will improve my experience with Su.
Release notes here:

This is a long list, I expect to spend at least a couple of hours checking it all out.
I am frankly getting very tired of the naysayers who want bla de bla de bla ad nauseum.
Sketchup is primarily a design/drawing program. That suits me fine.
It has always from the beginning at @Last days applied the KISS principal and continues to deliver on that premise.
If it doesn't suit, please use Blender or something else and stop whinging. (Course you might have to pay for it. 
I wish Layout was smart enough to know that I invariably want to save a file with the same name as the Skp.

Does this look like fibrous cardboard?
Looks just like MDF which has been out in the weather

Don't forget to give your piece a daft/offensive/creepy title. 'Death To Midgets', 'All Your Vgn*s Are Belong To Us', something along those lines.
Ooh! Gotcha. Will think on it. Trouble is I don't think that way normally. Any further tips on how to be weird:)
Daft: 'How to make Ice cream fudge furniture'
Offensive: 'F--k you, Ikea man'.
Creepy: 'They ain't shadows, they is your death.'
But how 'bout: 'The Last Sideboard' No, too last supper.
Or: 'Abandoned'
Now I am getting seriously weirded out.
But whaddya really think Stinkie?
PS: More than happy to share the SKP if anybody wants to weird it more...
Inspired by Stinkies otherworldly pieces, not a patch on his stuff, but I think it has a kind of creepy presence...
whaddya reckon?
Here are some examples of Stinkies work...

You need the orbit tool not the pan tool. That will get you towards the view you want. If your point of interest is off the screen, or almost off it, double click it or near it and that will center the view.
You can also use the views tool to orient your model.

There is an unfold plugin somewhere.
Flattery?

Arrange your trays as you wish and 'Save as Template'.
Of course you can save other parameters also.
This morn received notice of a private message from "Komenahassan".
Obviously a scam. I know you can't stop people signing up, I hope this doesn't become a real problem.
This guy only signed up yesterday, I wonder if you can red flag non-posters who private message?
