Hello Tim,
many thanks for your hint and the upload of the fixed model!
To be honest I'd never would have solved this issue on my own.
But with all those very competent answer I get here in this form my learning curve starts to accelerate exponentially...
You're my hero!
Have a great day and greetings from a sunny Switzerland.

First of all, many thanks for the very prompt hints!
I've just added an other part which starts to behave strange again...
SLIDING NOT POSSIBLE!
I'm totally lost and can't make a story out of it...
Many thanks for supplying me with further hints!
Good nite
Dirk
Ciao "hpnisse",
do you have a "real" name as well?
anyway, your hint solved my problem at first...
STUPID ME!
thanks for being so kind and helping an absolute beginner.
I will have to test it again in my much more complex design, as I'm not quite sure if it will work there as well, as the stuff posted was just a quickly created example out of the blue.
"So long and thanks for all the fish"
Greetings from Switzerland

Hello to all,
unfortunately I'm running into a slider problem again.
I've drawn two horizontal cylinders which are static, on top of them I made a box which slides very nicely...
But I've also added a flange constructed out of segments and have not used a circle to build it, but somehow I don't get it to slide over the cylinder.
Many thanks in advance for any hints.

Hey Wacov,
many thanks for the hint 'Connected collide', which solved my problem!
But here I've got another one:
I've just downloaded your "Hover Prototype" and tried to run it in the newest version of SketchyPhysics 3 RC1 as suggested by "jaysax" but when I press play physics simulation I get an empty blue control panel with a quote (") at the top left and no controls are shown at all.
I would be great if you had hint on this issue as well.
Many thanks on advance for your help.
Regards from Switzerland,
Dirk
Hi Jay,
thanks for your reply!
Well I thought that my description of the problem would be hard to visualize...
I wanted to post a SKP file in my first post but I could not find how to accomplish this here in the forum.
So I'm working on it an will post an example
Dirk
Stupid me!
Refering to my first post: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=30350
Here now an example of my slider problem.
Dirk
Hello to everyone!
My name is Dirk and I'm new in this forum but not new to SketchUp and SketchyPhysics.
Recently I came across a very annoying behavior when using Sliders along long path.
I've created a box 100x100x6000mm and added on the long side a small box 100x100x10 grouped it added the slider and connected the stuff.
It's work but when the small box is moved along the long box it starts to intersect until it's completely submerged.
I've googled like mad but could not find any answer and therefore I hope that someone on this forum might have an idea whats wrong.
It happens SP2 and SP3
Many thanks in advance for your hints,
Dirk
