I'd imagine that phone support is when you have exhausted the knowledge centre, forum and email support.... http://help.sketchup.com/en/contact/pro-support I do know they will work through issues over the phone but have you explored the other options first?

You should have a look at theese too: Shape bender Components onto faces Fredoscale (Radial bending) Throw to

Ah cool, Thanks!

3d first

If you have 3d components for these objects here is a solution. For each object component, have duplicate versions on different layers (top, front, left, . . . , 3d). By default use the 3d view, and have other layers set to off. But when you are in top view for example, disable the 3d layer, and turn on the top layer. I've thought about this for working with trees. 3d for perspective, but plan version for plans or as working object to speed things up. If you want an easy way to see all of these views in Layout, Just setup a paired SketchUp and Layout file with views already setup. Then just drop component into your SketchUp file, goto Layout and Adjust the scale as needed for that specific component.

Import image to be projected (or apply the texture you want to project on to a flat surface.) Explode the image (if imported), right click it->texture->projected. Select the paint bucket tool, hold the alt key (changes it to a sampling tool) sample the texture and apply it to your curved face.

I have SunStudy on my to-do list. There are some similar things out there, though.

Thanks for your response, but it still doesn't work. The file structure is as you described, though there are many more files in the OFS_Dir/ (png/pdf etc) Joint push pull appears to be working for me now though... All these Ruby scripts seem very well messy! I mean the arrangment. I don't know what half the ones I have are any more! Any tips on organization with Ruby? Also how to get the above script to work
