I get this every time I start SU. Says TT_Lib2 by ThomThom needs updating, then says unable to read file extension.
I have the latest version anyway, annoying.
Now I ignore it and it goes away after a few seconds.

Aha, learning, still learning...

FYI. Just checked your file with SU17. Same result.

Well ... In a way.

Y'all have a nice weekend.

Yeah...You too. (sent from my h_phone)

There were these three farmers that wanted to win the state fair contest for having the largest pig. They decide that they should stick a cork in the pigs arse and feed him for a month before the fair. The only problem was that none of them wanted to be the one to stick the cork in. So they bought a monkey and trained him to stick corks in bottles. After a week or two of this, they stick the monkey in the pen with the pig and a cork, and after a minute, the monkey did what he was supposed to do. The farmers fed the pig for a month and sure enough, they won first prize. Once they got home, they realized they still had to take the cork out. So they trained this same monkey to take corks out of bottles. They stuck the monkey in the pen with the pig, and the farmers woke up three days later in the hospital with a reporter sitting next to them. The reporter asked the first farmer, "What is the last thing you remember?" "Shit flying everywhere," the farmer replied. The reporter asked the second farmer the same question and got the same response. When she got to the third farmer and asked him what he could remember, he was laughing hysterically. The reporter asked, "What's the matter? What is so funny about being buried in pig shit" The farmer replied, "You shoulda seen the monkey trying to stick the cork back in."

That is not only unfunny Box, it is insultingly trivial. Love your work usually tho'.

"You aren't actually an alien are you"? Stinkie is not but I am, we are everywhere, including the bathrooms and rest rooms all over the world. Do you know how hard it is to find a rest room (As I believe you call them) when your commute is several thousand light years? All I have in my galactic transport pod is a pull out commode and some shiny, scratchy paper. It is enough to make an alien weep. BTW, you guys are the aliens, I have not had a screech climb out of my abdomen like, for ever.
If anyone is really concerned about the planet and the effects of human infestation, reduce procreation to a point where the planet can support the population and definitely prevent the stoopid from producing another generation. Actually just go for preventing the stoopid from the recreational use of biological replication.

Chill Mike. Everything will be Ok. Keep taking the medication.

...My original post was about my despair about the imminent demise of humans on this planet. (20 to 50 years?)...

So...

That's irrelevant Stinkie. And who the fuck cares what a bunch of Neanderthals in DC thinks or does.
IMHO, it's pretty much too late anyway.

Example: It seems that glaciers are hiving off huge chunks into the world ocean, making previous sea level rise predictions wrong by an order of two or more. Plus a bunch of other stuff to do with ice in temperate climes.
You guys OK with a 2 metre rise? Or how about 4 metres? (Thats 13.1234 feet in the good ol usa).

I'll be fine, looking forward to having the boat at the end of the drive.

Example 2: I cant be bothered typing more examples, they are everywhere. Just Google 'The planet is fucked" and settle down for a couple hours reading.

You guys seem to be stuck in the past, which btw, has already happened.

Let us accept that human beings are a failed experiment, but the planet will most likely go on, barring nuclear mishaps, but with a much reduced ecosystem.

Your grandchildren will curse you for your complacency. Your great grandchildren will die of asphyxiation.
(The science in the movie 'Interstellar' is accurate, I think).

C'mon guys, at least get your heads out of the sand and admit the reality of it. If you do, there might...just might... be a chance to turn this shitstorm around.

George Carlin put it best:

"We’re so self-important. Everybody’s going to save something now. “Save the trees, save the bees, save the whales, save those snails.” And the greatest arrogance of all: save the planet. Save the planet, we don’t even know how to take care of ourselves yet. I’m tired of this shit. I’m tired of f-ing Earth Day. I’m tired of these self-righteous environmentalists, these white, bourgeois liberals who think the only thing wrong with this country is that there aren’t enough bicycle paths. People trying to make the world safe for Volvos. Besides, environmentalists don’t give a shit about the planet. Not in the abstract they don’t. You know what they’re interested in? A clean place to live. Their own habitat. They’re worried that some day in the future they might be personally inconvenienced. Narrow, unenlightened self-interest doesn’t impress me.

The planet has been through a lot worse than us. Been through earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, continental drift, solar flares, sun spots, magnetic storms, the magnetic reversal of the poles … hundreds of thousands of years of bombardment by comets and asteroids and meteors, worldwide floods, tidal waves, worldwide fires, erosion, cosmic rays, recurring ice ages … And we think some plastic bags and some aluminum cans are going to make a difference? The planet isn’t going anywhere. WE are!

We’re going away. Pack your shit, folks. We’re going away. And we won’t leave much of a trace, either. Maybe a little Styrofoam … The planet’ll be here and we’ll be long gone. Just another failed mutation. Just another closed-end biological mistake. An evolutionary cul-de-sac. The planet’ll shake us off like a bad case of fleas.

The planet will be here for a long, long, LONG time after we’re gone, and it will heal itself, it will cleanse itself, ’cause that’s what it does. It’s a self-correcting system. The air and the water will recover, the earth will be renewed. And if it’s true that plastic is not degradable, well, the planet will simply incorporate plastic into a new paradigm: the earth plus plastic. The earth doesn’t share our prejudice toward plastic. Plastic came out of the earth. The earth probably sees plastic as just another one of its children. Could be the only reason the earth allowed us to be spawned from it in the first place. It wanted plastic for itself. Didn’t know how to make it. Needed us. Could be the answer to our age-old egocentric philosophical question, “Why are we here?”

Plastic… asshole."

So the first image isn't the photo?

Sh*t!!! fooled me.

@pmolson said:

happens to me all the time. I just orbit around to a different view and grab the object from a different point and then it works. Drives me nuts too.

Same here.

Getting out of my depth here perhaps, but if you ctrl click several arcs, length is updated as you go....

So it seems Entity Info will show the total length of non-contiguous edges.

@tguildworkspdx said:

When I select multiple arcs to find the total length, the length box disappears from entity info. Is there a way to find total length of many arcs without clicking on them one by one?

You could use Tig's Weld to make them one entity.

@box said:

Don't hold ctrl, just tap it, it is a toggle. Guide on guide off,you'll even see the little guide line symbol disappear and reappear.
For some unknown reason they reversed the default in 2017.

Damn, never noticed that. The toggle on seems to be the default on my puter. Never needed a reason to toggle off.

Works fine for me, p'raps try a repair/reinstall?
Or load the model, see if it works for others?

@box said:

Here ya go Baz, did a quick gif to show the creasing for you.

Thanks Box. I'm getting there.

@box said:

Baz you need to use the crease tool on that section, including the corners from memory.
I'm away from my PC just now so can't give you the proxy until later.

Ah, creasing, forgot about that. I wish there was a SubD for Dummies, I would certainly buy it...

Pretty sure not a bug. Dave R will have to chime in here, he is the expert. But I do know never to modify scenes in Layout, That way lies madness!. Always do the mods in SU and if you dont want measurements messed up, don't change the scene position.
