Thank you Dave R. Ye. Had a virus issue after plugging my H/D into someone else's Laptop. Spent days sorting out permissions. Anyway, thanks again.

Here http://www.ogleearth.com/2006/09/google_earth_40_3.html are some suggestions regarding videocard (FireGL in particular)settings for Google Earth. Not sure it will work for SU, but who knows... Hope it will help.

Hey Dave, I don't know if it's dyslexia or my own stupidity but I got confused about halfway through the instructions. Anyway, could you do a small tut on this method?? Or is there one already in existence that I missed?! I know that this question has been asked before and some fellow members are in the process of developing a ruby to serve that exact purpose (aimed at cabinet makers and woodworkers). Have a great day Mike RL

Hello everybody!!! I'm so glad there are more people with my problem. I've been trying how to do that for a while now and just can't figure it out. I think the easiest way for a ruby would be to make a modification to the scale tool where certain dimensions can be locked. Lets say we could have a dialog box where to type in certain dimensions like 3/4, 2" and 1/4 that will be locked while scaling. Then we could scale without having our important measurements changing. Thats my dream of how it could look like!!!!!!!!! Please help us poor people who just want to stretch and not sale !!!!!!!!!!! Thank you guys so much. At least I know there are more people out there with the same problem. Roland
