Is there a way to make the text in Layout transparent. For creating say a "Copyright" transparent text over an image?

I know you can alter the transparency to fills.

Cheers Jeff.
Do not reply with transparent text please

A few whisky's will fix a chill on the bones. I'm bath'n in hot summer temps here we had +32 last week, a little colder today at +26.

Whats wrong with the 3D text already in SU?.....or I could post you a letter

I actually quite enjoy them as i know im safe working form home but nearly s--- myself if im around any large buildings in the city. Still we build close to or over fault lines so we can prove how tough we are.

I have been putting together some of my helpful links into a blog and came across this batch convertor called Picture Resizer available at http://www.rw-designer.com. It looks very handy but havent given it a wizz yet.

You can thank me later.

PS If you do give it a "wizz" can you please let us know what you thought of it thanks.

Cheers Jeff

What a great idea, and fantastically done..
cheers Jeff

Check this out for a way to do, its easier (of course you need to know how its constructed, but only if your trying to draw it technically correct for use in construction docs).

hopefully your all sorted now! and know a few good work arounds.

PS I pulled the roof down the distance you specified the quickest way I know how, if you worked out the trig distance (one calc) you can figure out how far you need to pull the roof down exactly, or just draw it in sketchup and measure it - a cross section. ..cheers, lets see your final workings , roof and building when your finished.

I wondered too if any one has a list of plugins that work for SU7

(I have a few myself in 6 but didnot keep a separate list of what was installed so I dont know what to copy over to 7)
