through the round corners parameters under Tools is ther any way to make is so that the geometry isnt automatically softened?

i like it, your lighting is very nice i would put a different background in the window though, in both renders, the first wiould look cooler looking into some tree trunks, and the top view would be nicer looking onto the tops of some bushes, but these are small notes, over all well done. ...that picture is misplaced IMO it should be a bigger mural type piece matching the proportion of the wall its hanging on...

all works fine here, i tried it on a 20mm box with a 1mm bevel and that works perfect. SU7
however with that special command bar that appears when i hover the mouse over any button there the cursor prompt say invalid ???

you are a genius FREDO sketchup would be a steaming pile of crap without you... amen

hey thom thom, looking at this script i see uve put standard rotate, as a extra when holding control u get standard rotate, any way we could get linear scaling when holding alt?

Hi Chris
im having a problem with this script, if i try to undo a set of actions where i had used ur extended views in it, i get a very annoying little box with construction points being "unbuilt" as i go through the undos, its like your script uses it to align the axis and u havnt got the script group (or whatevr you ruby guys call it) where it can undo with a single undo, then i tried to just open a blank page, draw a quick block then hit T (for top view), then try to undo the block, then u see the construction points and way to make ur script undoable with one undo, or have it not feature in the undo list at all

needed to make a linear loft type surface, just found a tutorial on how to do it in max with splines, but for my purposes i think this would work better than in max with splines.

i made a linear shell from 2 stiched curves then extracted the lines which i then needed to intesect with faces to create a decent mesh (sketchup hates decent meshes ) needed to points to create a surface with a plugin from the archi-land toolbar "surface from points" (or something).

Thank you both for the lightning quick response, u made me a happy sketchupper... was mulling in my hatred for skecthup when i posted that request

crazy, you are a life saver, thank you, i was using add point from the projections tool bar to manually place 600 points... my mouse finger thanx you

hey lets get crazy... why not , but desperatly need those construction points at the intersection

i ran a search and couldnt find anything, but is there a pluggin that could place a construction point at the intersection of a line and a face as per my attached pick, i imagine it would be simple enough to code, can anyone help me out?

hehe or u wait till christmas for each render...

will it have pressure sensitivity with a wacom pen and tablet????

also would be cool if it made its own geometry??? as to not produce any unnecessary geometry, just a thought

Hi TIG, Thank you for the gem..

could be me doing something wrong.. i noticed that if i draw a circle on any plane (as path) and an edge in elevation (profile), the script always considers the circle the path

thats because the the script doesnt rotate the profile along the path so it apears as if the circle is being extruded, to which TIG will reply: if you want that function use Follow Me or Follow me and Keep.

Tig: it seems people would really really like that function

i really need to get into modo...

thanx everyone for the kind words.
EarthMover: i am in the process of making an exterior renders tutorial and raws attached.
CameronVan: looks like some kind of feature wall
Sepo: no photomontage the birds and people are cheese for commercial sake... im not proud of it
Dirk: water is bump

the back view has so much potential to be a really awesome render, such a pitty about the architecture, im still not sure i want to post this project, but it think it was successful in regards to clients needs so i thought i would share anyway

yup...can i get fries with that?

thom is ther any way of making mirror textures global? max retains the mapping better if the textures are on both faces and its a schlep to go through each group

very fine qualitly renders, i love that first render, very smooth did u use Adaptive DMC in image sampler?

64 subdivs ouch!!... why?
