Hi.

Have searched the forum, but didnt fint any post regarding this question.
Also not sure if this is the right category to post in.

The problem is that I am using SketchUp version 8, but the other people in my current project uses version 7.

Until they upgrade to version 8, which unfortunately wont be any time soon, I have to save every file as version 7.
It's a bit problematic as I often do some small fixes. When I open a file, fix a thing or it gets autosaved, its done in version 8.

I could of course just get used to chose "Save As", and bind CTRL+S to a "save as" window so I don't forget. But we are talking +200 files, when you add it up, there will be quite some time spent "saving as" instead of just saving when quitting.

I could also just use v7 for now, but I think its a bit of a waste when i have v8.

Isn't there a way to make Version7 the default format when saving? Saving as in Files>Save and clicking Yes to saving, when quitting an unsaved model.

Thanks in advance.

Divided the shape and rotated in 24 times, 15 deg. each time..

Would still like an automated solution, as it gets a bit more tedious if you bend it 48 times and find out the shape is a bit wrong.. Of course it could be divided into 2, 4 or more parts, but that would also require some extra work..

Any solutions?

Hi.

Im trying to "fold" a plain surface around a circle, I can do it manually, but would love it can be done automatic...

I need to apply the attached illustration "Surface" to the "Shape".
Would love if someone could figure out how I can draw the shape first, and then apply it to a circle or fold it around a circle.

I could always make one circle, and then scale it down to fit the top.

The alternative is drawing the shape, dividing it with some lines and folding it around a circle with fixed intervals (360deg/24sides=15deg per "fold")

Yarr?

Hi, made a few renders of a house for a client.
If you where to sell these three renders AND the actual sketchup file, what would you charge?

Thanks for viewing and commenting!
