Hi,

In am not so good with multiple animations in the DC. How can I make the doors on this cabinet open 90 degrees and slide backwords when clicking second time?

Is there a plugin or how can I copy items along 2 paths?
Just like a rollercoasters wheels holds the wagons locked while twisting along the rails I want these blocks to copy equally following the two rails.

Any tips?
Thank You

see attached SKP 2022 model

Previously we had Sketchy Physics and MSPhysics which could solve my problem.
I need to drop some boxes and cans into a bin so it looks naturally without intersecting eachother
like on this photo.

Anyone have a tip on plugin or how to do it?

Hi PCmoore,

Thank you for explaining. Very useful
Thank you once again

My try.
Untill I learn more of subdivision i used Curviloft and scale for this model

Here is another one..

Thank you for explaining..

Just curious Rich. How do you know how to split model(divide) and do you model half as component before combining and subdivision?
Did you use a plugin for texturing? (i.e Fredo´s Thrupaint)

Wow Rich! Cannot beat that
I think I give up. Impressing modelling indeed. Thank you for showing.

I am gonna give this model a go. But who can do this fast and easy and still good looking?

Trying to make this PushPin mechanism work by clicking either at the red end button or the rotating part. They work individually, -but how can I make them work at same time (Connected) by clicking either?
(Something about "mother<Child"...)

Any help appreciated

Export to dwg is ok, -but when sent to an email it does not show. What is wrong? AutoCad looking for references (png´s?). Can i do something to merge into one flat 2D dwg file?

From LayOut

after email

I found out; Tried to combine 3 textures at a time. Works only by two at once

Looking for "Combine Textures" in SU 2021. Is it discontinues or moved to another command?

@dave r said:

If copying with Ctrl and move you need to remember to hold Ctrl and Shift together.

Thank you Dave. I never thought about that. This solved the problem though it still "wanders" a bit, -but now along right direction.
Thank you again

I find it hard to copy drawing locked to an axis in LayOut. It is so simple in SketchUp either holding down the shift key or using the arrow keys to lock in direction. Trying using the shift key when copying in LayOut works fine untill you pass outside the model "border" then it starts jumping up and down snapping to invisible points and sometimes wandering about the screen. Makes me crazy! Why can we not have the same direction locks like in SketchUp?
I often use LayOut for facade drawings, -and the arrow key locks to define the ditections would make it so much easier. ..Or did I miss something?

I made this staircase and try to make it "watertight" for ifc export. So far I failed even though I checked it piece(solid) by piece with Solidinspector. When I check the grouped solid it says 1 Surface Border but I cant find it. Another strange thing is in the ifc model only one step shows up..?
Can anybody help me? Attached is the stairmodel in SUv21.
