Oh yeah! Thats great news Devin.

@unknownuser said: SU2013 license will that work with SU8? The SU2013 Pro license number won't turn a SU8 into Pro. Everything else has been answered, Norbert's suggestion is probably the best you can do.

Precisely! Why didn't I think of the ol' 'layer ball' analogy? -Brodie

One thing for sure I could tell: without Max version (eating +- 15gb) I simply would be fired (though file exporting itself is a tedious job)

Probably better off highlighting this to Fredo and see if he can address it instead of somebody starting to develop something new from scratch. (And maybe it's a plugin you have that conflicts...)

Hrm...perhaps not traditional easter eggs but lots of little things going on and added bits that you probably wouldn't catch right away. The Hollywood spotlights are animated, for example. And you'll find a teddy bear in the trolley. Also, many of the objects have some meaning related to the Transbay Transit Center which is why the Golden Gate bridge, Hollywood, and some other regional places are included. -Brodie

Yes. I did this long ago... Please learn to use the Plugins Index and your Browser's search capabilities... You are TopEd'or

The impression I get is that anything would be very low poly. -Brodie You might be better commissioning somebody to build it for you, somebody round here may be of help. Even to take one of the free low poly models floating about the internet and upgrading it a few levels. Did you ever find anybody to build the model? I may have some free time coming up in 1-2 weeks?

@sdmitch said: DOH!!!!!!!!! Yes, the .floor and .to_i are Ruby elements. Sorry I didn't realize we were discussing Dynamic Components. Never mind. ah ha, no worries I was hoping I'd missed out on some DC secrets. -Brodie

Just to update, sdmitch revised the script a bit and it's working wonderfully for me now. -Brodie

Microsoft just announced two new Tablets running on windows 8. One running on Windows RT (mobile version of windows8)and one running on the full windows 8 pro. The last one has a i5 processor. I think this last one will be the first tablet capable of running SU and other 3d software. Greetz Twan

Yes, you don't have that ability currently in LayOut. You only can control scenes, not layers. A frequently asked-for feature. b

Thanks Marian, that's what I needed. -Brodie

@sketch-gary said: ...I'm glad that I bought Pro and that I joined this forum... No-one cares about Pro here (apart from being able to edit DC functions) but indeed joining the forums must have been a major step.

@thomthom said: I have found a way to make components not fade out. Stay tuned for a new plugin. Should be useful for modelling by references. Thanks buddy. If you happen to think about it please post back if/when you create it as I don't follow the plugins section as much as I should sometimes and would hate to miss it. -Brodie

This problem has been driving me nuts for years, in my largest models it was impossible to right click and delete materials from the SU Material Editor. A real pain when SU automatically creates solid colour materials for imported dwgs. Digitalmarley's trick above works! I had to change my Windows 7 theme to Classic (Basic didn't work), and SU stills hangs for about 20 seconds (for each material!), but finally the right click context menu comes up and I can choose delete. Thank you Digitalmarley! Trimble really need to sort out how SU handles materials, it's a terrible bottleneck. /Jackson

@jason_maranto said: :enlight: Yeah, external linking is definitely the way to go for complex organic geometry -- I've always been a fan of Whaat's work and the Indigo plugin is no exception. Thanks for showing this feature off for us Best, Jason. Thanks Jason, and thanks Jeff for showing this feature. I am hoping to finally get around to doing some video tutorials for this sometime. It's been on my TODO list far too long.
