    • RE: Material from 3D warehouse

      @unknownuser said:

      If you want to save the whole library as such, right to the search bar (or whatever it is), there is a blue arrow icon that triggers a menu. There you can find a menu item to "save library..."; navigate to where you wish to save it - the default library on a 32 bit system is here:
      C:\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Materials

      • and save the whole library so that next time it shows up among your existing ones.

      For example when i have many different wood textures in a model like:
      les 100 variant.skp
      then i click PAINT BUCKET tool, where there are all those wood textures collected in the 'IN MODEL' drop down menu. So there is as Gaieus said a blue arrow icon that triggers a menu. There you can find a menu item "save collection as..." to save that in a map under the C:\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Materials
      When I tried then to find those wood textures in explorer in a map I previously saved in seen (I saved it under the existing file WOODS) they aren't there and even if I create new map there's a lock on it in explorer and I can't open it or rearranged. Just to tell also that if I open those maps with PAINT BUCKET tool then all those textures are there. Why is this happening? Any tips?

    • RE: Subscript and superscript letters and numbers

      For me it works only that way..

      @unknownuser said:

      Is relatively easy on a PC... use System Tools > Character Map [suitable for any font you are using], and copy/paste the desired odd characters... unless you have say a Chinese system when you might find that some of the more unusual [but standard] characters are not provided in even the most common of fonts like Arial - I recently had to advise a Chinese PC user to edit my AreaTag tool to use "12.3 m2" instead of the usual "12.3 m²" as he was getting a blank character !

    • Attaching tape to surface

      What I would like to do in my case is to shape brown aluminium tape just over the surface of the group of subjects (colored in orange). I can do it by cutting and connecting piece by piece together, but it just takes to much time. What I would like to get is shown on the picture attached. Need help for both cases. Which plugin shall I use?

      Thanks for help!
