hi Frenchy,

this works!

thanx.

Fredo tools has one who draw points of existing segments! Can be also useful! 😉

Re-import the image as "Use as texture" and then you can position/scale the image. It will only be painted onto the face, so wherever the face ends, it'll end too.

Seems Gaieus has made a complete tutorial about this sort of piece of architecture!

Actually I am planning to post a whole series of tuts for these antique pieces so in time, there may be more of them (and more elaborate than that thing showing only the pointed arch)

Here's #1 😉

Not in Sketchup. There are lots of other applications you can export a SketchUp model but that would mean losing a bunch of features, too. Most common would be an interactive, 3D PDF or an online viewer or a walkabout "game like" application.

Thanks Dan. I looked in the contextual menu. Didn't think to look in the entity window. There are at least three ways to do things in SU it seems!

I think I can do what I want within SU, at least, if not LO. In plan the name of the tanks will clearly sit over the model and move around with it as the winery is arranged. The name can be positioned so that it appears to hover above the tank in other views. and not whip around with the leader all the time ( I think). I can place it on another layer if I only want it showing sometimes.

Something like LightUp exports to be viewed by a player

Another one with some examples: http://www.renderplus.com/wk/RPS_3D_PDF_w.htm
I have never tried to make a 3D PDF, but I am interested in some experiences...

thanks,
the shadows dialog box helped me out.
