@Rich-O-Brien thankee kindly, sir.

@ntxdave thank you.

Machinist's models.

Can't you just select it to highlight it and hit Delete to make it go away?

Are you modeling internal or external threads?

@Leggy said in help with a thread:

What about tpi?

What do you mean? The thread pitch is given along with the other dimensions for the threads. TPI standas for Threads Per Inch and is not used for metric threads. M22x2.5 indicates the nominal diamter is 22mm and the pitch is 2.5mm. The helix rises 2.5mm for each rotation.

@Leggy said in help with a thread:

Is there a chart you use to look up thread dimensions, pitch, tpi , crest etc

I would use the following site:

External Metric ISO Thread Table Chart Sizes M20 - M55

Metric external thread size table chart for sizes M20 to M55 Bolts and screws per. ANSI/ASME B1.13M-1995.

I wouldn't bother with the radiused corners because they'd be too small.

I've been enjoying SU2026.

All the Migrator does is copy the extensions from the Plugins folder of the older version and paste them into the new version. If you have outdated extensions, they may create errors when you start the new version of SketchUp again. As for the licensing of extentions, it depends on the extensions and how the licenses are managed. For extensions from SketchUcation, you should use the Sketchucation ExtensionStore to install your bundle of extensions. First install the latest version of the ExtensionStore. Doing that will ensure you get the latest versions of those extensions installed and that they will be installed correctly.

You're looking at the old Trimble online viewer, not the SketchUp online viewer. After saving your file to Trimble Connect, use the Share a Link option from the Trimble Connect menu. Or you can do the same in the Trimble Connect web UI.

The SketchUp online viewer will display the watermark. Here is a model in SketchUp with a watermark added in the style.

And this is what it looks like in the SketchUp online viewer.

TIG Weld seems to be working fine in SU2026 for me. I also use Eneroth AutoWeld which will weld any edges that can be welded in a selection.

If all you want to do is open in 2016 a model you created in SketchUp 2017, why do you want to create an OBJ file in the first place? What's wrong with using File>Save As ... in SketchUp 2017 and selecting SketchUp 2016?

@L-i-am I like the painting quite a lot. It's so much nicer after it was cleaned up and framed.

@Mike-Amos thank you. It's basically straight out of SketchUp.

@Rich-O-Brien

LOL!

@L-i-am said in A Small Table and a Watercolor Painting on an Easel:

Is that an original painting that is yours?

Yes. I own the painting. It was given to me about 60 years ago by a great aunt.

I am nit picking here, and that artis stool would almost always have 3 legs as do all milking stools have 3 legs for stability

True. If it was a stool it probably would have three legs. But it isn't a stool. It's a small side table.

I agree that it's unfortunate they removed StyleBuilder. I think it just didn't have enough users. I'll keep SU2024 installed as long as I can to keep StyleBuilder available. Diffusion was not meant as a replacement. It was meant as a tool to help users come up with ideas for their models. It wasn't meant to replace renderers, either. I've played with Diffusion a bit but it doesn't really have a place for my work.

FWIW, I used one of my sketchy line styles in the image above.

The painting is by Henry Stannard, RBA from about 1885. I recently had a conservator clean up the painting and then had it framed. The image here is from the conserved but unframed painting.

I made a similar thing for a recent image using Radial Bending from FredoScale.

This looks like a great tool Samuel. Unfortunately I'm not seeing a way to use the textures from it. I am not seeing the error message Rich shows but clicking on a material doesn't seem to do anything unless the material is already in the local Materials folder. This is also with SU2026 on Windows 11.

@Glenn-at-home said in SketchUp 2026 Released:

all but 1 3rd party plugin seems to be working, Ambient Occlusion but that's to be expected.

Do you still need the Ambient Occlusion extension since SketchUp has it natively?

Did you use the Sketchucation ExtensionStore to install your bundle of Sketchucation extensions?
