You only proved that you do not know what you are talking about.

Bye bye.

yeah the measuring tool worked just fine, I had to lengthen the posts and raise the roof up, re do the knee braces, but now I have something to show the customer,

and something to work up a price with 🙂

Thanks for clarification... And yes I do paintings and recently am sharing some simple tutorials of mine: https://www.deviantart.com/yeganegi and on youtube also: https://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?https://youtu.be/Qd7VTDsX_N0

Some other pictures from that project. I didn't use much SketchUp and I never took many pictures, but at least it all got built.

They have the same type boxes in the Aussie parliament, a gift from king George V

This has been happening for years so not a big deal, I was just curious. It happened with my last computer too.

Thanks Peeps! I love building these and we have a lot of fun in the process!

you can see us building a similar one using the same clear vertical grain western red cedar we use

ah ha, thanks Bep!

Looks like you will do the job proud. Nice.

OK I was able to export eps files which my client can use.

I can export this 1st image as a dxf, but the 2nd causes the splat. Would anyone have any ideas why this happens? Please excuse my questions!

EDIT- I thought it might be all the text in the 2nd image so I hid it, but still got the dreaded splat!

I'm glad you took it the right way Joe.

This is my preview pane then

but I don't have Illustrator.

This cool easy free one: online or local Gravit Designer ☀

Yeah, manufacturers tend to have drivers that differ. It is always a good idea to visit the OEM site and find drivers there.

Are these things actually 'hidden', or do they have some 'off' [aka 'hidden'] layer[s] assigned to them ?

To see if they are hidden use View > Hidden Geometry > ON...

Otherwise, check the layer settings...
Check which layers the vanishing objects might have assigned...

Obviously, SketchUp should not be deciding to make somethings 'hidden' [in either sense] in an unexpected way...
I'm sure we can find the culprit...

Yeah let's hope it doesn't become an issue, I've never seen a preview pane I don't think.

Thanks for taking the time for me Box! Ok I might try some plugins, those two you showed do look interesting.

Definitely use "curves" adjustment. Brightness/ contrast is an older mode and gives you much less control. I would highly recommend Lightroom. It's non-destructive and has a really great set of controls for color adjustments. When you scan - set the bit depth as high as the scanner will let you - that will give your image editing program more information to work with.

Wow! Looking fine! Looks like they had no trouble putting it up either!
