It would just be nice to have a one-click solution.

I suppose you could create a scene that has Shadows turned on and maybe no other properties saved. Have that as part of your template.[/quote]

Well, that's another infuriating thing I can add to the list. Thanks for your info!

No. Shadows are separate from Styles.

Hello.

Is there a way to link shadow settings to Styles? I've been using Sketchup for years, but I can't figure out how to do this.

Thanks.

That's it! Thank you!

Is there a hidden, ungrouped face where you drew that triangle? Do you get a message indicating that the new geometry has merged with hidden geometry?

What you see is the only geometry in the model. There is no hidden geometry.

When I draw new geometry, it's automatically painted green. How do I re/set the color that Sketchup automatically paints new surfaces?

Thanks in advance.
