    • Importing png problem.

      I'm trying to import a set of png tile images into one picture like a jigsaw, but when I import into one square the picture pops up in a different one,

      Instead of showing up in the sqaure I chose it either goes to the one next to it or above it.

      Is there a way to fix this?

    • RE: Need help with pasting!

      @gaieus said:

      After you pasted the linework, select all > right click > Intersect > ...selection. If the lines and the faces are coplanar, chances are it will merge the edges with the faces and Z-fighting stops.

      Otherwise try to draw over a couple of lines to force merging. Note you can also attach the skp file here.

      It worked! Thank you very much!

    • Need help with pasting!

      I'm trying to repeat flat line designs onto a flat surface,

      The highlighted is the design I want to replicate throughout the surface

      I've tried two methods but both arrive with problems.

      Method 1.
      Highlighting the lines only and copying and pasting them onto the surface,

      http://img542.imageshack.us/img542/9845/13448376.jpg

      it works but once the square snaps to the other line then the pasted version doesn't let you click on a specific part of the design or if I try to paint one section it paints the entire design as if there is no separation between the boxes, example:

      http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/5755/87411865.jpg

      If I don't snap it to the existing line it works but then it's not parallel to the other design.

      Method 2.
      Selecting the entire design with all surfaces inside it,

      http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/3338/67243055.jpg

      this method results in z-fighting http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-fighting

      It's as if there is no way to do this simple task properly.

      Please help!
