Flexwindows are mirrored from one side to the other cutting new holes but removing the original holes from the side copied from..

When I mirror Flex doors and windows with copy the cutholes on original disappears..?
Same happens if I modify a wall with flexcomponents.
Is there a way of updating so the cutholes comes back?

Looks good halroach but I will need frames around glass like a panel door. Do I have to make it manually? I hope this will come in an upcoming version.

How can I make a swing glassdoor with glass sidepanels?

Can you use a texture? You could just UV unwrap the mesh and paint it if a texture will do

This has to be a 3D model for visualization

I have this PET bottle which I want to have an flowery volumetric organic pattern twisted around the surface.
Pattern will be on outside on surface

How can this be done?

I have problem with plugin bars missing.
Dont know why it is missing as it was there before. In this case FlexTools which is activated in the toolbars menu. I can also find the tools in the Extension drop down but the toolbar would be so much easier. Had the same problem with another extension lately but suddenly one day it reappered..?
Can anybody help me relocate it?

Need help with this interactive spot which has a Enscape spot beam built in.
I managed to make the rotation but would also like to tilt it by clicking on the spots adjusting screw on the sides. Can anybody show me how it can be done?

Thank you Philip for saving me once more.
I try to reason how this works but it doesn´t come easy to me. I have to work with it.
Thank you and may you and your family have a happy new year

could you upload a 2017 version? not intending to update this time.

generally each rotation needs to separate with its own nesting (world axis), however the example on https://forums.sketchup.com/t/rotating-more-than-one-axis-with-a-dc/54350 may work, but best to work your example

Thank you pcmoor. Christmas came between

Find attached the 2017 version

Thank you for helping and Merry Christmas in post

Well, I didn´t quite get this. Here I have the same problem. This is a foldout bed where the foot should fold out at the same time and movement as the bed swings out. Can anybody help me out

Here is the model: Loft160 Bed

Not sure why that was occurring as there were not any objects inside the groups "way off" which is usually the culprit.

I exploded and regrouped each and the problem seems have to gone away.

Thank you! i was in a hurry with this project.

I have a grouped model that has an issue with clippingplane only when trying to rotate the opened group. Can anybody help me fix this?

The file in v2017

@pcmoor said:

all onclick functions should on the same level of nesting otherwise the top will work in preference to the lower as its triggered first and shields the rest.
Combine two or more actions using semicolon between onclick functions, or use a common variable

cheers

PS
had to fix the height reference to stop the overall shrinking to change in the bounding box as toe is withdrawn
change group to component as can not reference a group back to the parent

the base is the trigger for the slide

Wow! Philip, thanks. Learnt something from this. Have to "chew" on it for some time to understand what you did though. What does size (LenZ) have to do with it?

Never quite understood how to setup the mother/child connection into a DC. Here is a model which has several DC components inside a group. What I am trying is to have separate control by clicking on the different parts. That is; I want the whole section to retract when clicking, -but at the same time the "Bottom Support to fold in. The plexi Covers are separate and opens/closes only when clicked on. Can anybody help me understand how to set it up. Attached is the model.

Really incredible what can be done with this tool.

I miss some links to architectural projects though, -partially or completely done with SU. Nick Sonder is one good example. What about bigger projects, - anyone?

Thank you for links Liam. Do you know if everything modelled in SU?
Wow Cotty! You really are productive!! And you work as electical engineer?

Most of you have probably seen this new video from the SketchUp team.
I am an interior architect and designer and also train SketchUp for living. Many of those I train are architects. To attract people start using SketchUp i struggle to convince them how useful SketchUp can be doing serious work in projects. Many have the impression that SketchUp is just a toy and in best case useable for drawing simple cubes representing buildings in a survey project. I have for long time been thinking of putting up a page showing what amazing things can be done in SU on my website. For that I would appreciate all info regarding beautyful projects done in SU.

  I am also looking for facts or funny facts about SU. Like how many users are present(2017) using SU on daily bases? Well known or famous projects or users, special projects, simulations, animations. Projects done using plugins showing that SU is capable of doing allmost anything are welcome.
  If you have a project you are proud of I can use I will of course put your name and link to any material I am allowed to use on the site.
  Thank you in advance.

D*** you are good!
Thank you pcmoore. Works great! I will study this.

I found this nice DC elevator model by Elmar.R on the warehouse
Doors are dynamic but does not work correctly. Trying to figure out to make them close/open in one click. Does anybody know how to fix them?
