Hi,
sometimes my component refuse to follow the blue, red or green line when I move it
today I have problems to move it down (on the blue line direction, it goes everytime in the other colored lines direction..
is it a key for tell to cpu to follow the direction of our choice ?

thanks

I wanted to see the differences between both

p.s. about the layer
I never use layer, so no need to do anything with that ?

Hi,
I draw some caracters with alien faces and would like to reproduce them in 3D.
I have Zbrush actually but never used it already.
Since I knew more basis from sketchup, I thought about making it with this last one.
Do you think it's a good idea to make it with sketchup ?
could you help me to make the face ?

Hi,

I would like to add a brand new object (or another component) to an actual component without breaking this last one, and without having 2 components, or a group.
In fact, what I would like to do is a kind of fusion of my actual component, and the new object.

thanks

I agree,
thanks for your tips

I learned a lot of thing on this thread, thanks a lot guys

Dave : smooth/soften option is very god, it clean all kind of small undesirable details
thanks a lot for that tip

Box : yes I didn't think about recurve the circles in fact

p.s. as I see, recurve is not very necessary if I can use smooth/soften option for repare right ?
p.s.' I found a solo ''smooth'' option in the same menu for erase single lines

now I have a good result enough
after recurve and recurve, and modify my paths a bit
but I still don't understand why have I 3 pipes with horizontal lines all along them.
all the other pipes are ok, only those 3 as you can see are stranges (2 on the very left, and the 3rd on the very right side)

ok, now I see better why I didn't find it on the skp menu
so, I downloaded the plugin
but when I >select curve >right clic >recurve edges
it give me this strange result
it change the form of my curve

need I ''recurve 1,5'' plugin ?

I m trying to recurve my selection but since I have skp in french I dont find the option ''recourber'' or any other which looks like.
Must I right clic on the selection to find the ''recurve'' option, or must I go into the top menu ?
pls could you show me which option to choose on a screen capture ?
or if there is any key shortcut for that which key is that ?

ok
I didn't know it can do that

DaveR
yes sometime that's the best solution as you say
