    • RE: [Plugin] Edge Tools

      Hi.

      This is a very useful plugin that I use everyday, however I would like to modify just a little thing that I think might be easy but I don't know how.

      When I click the icon in the toolbar to DIVIDE/SPLIT faces, the line created is always a regular line. So far so good.
      However if I assign a shortcut to DIVIDE/SPLIT faces, the line created is a construction line -- I have to use CONTROL to change it to a regular line.

      Is there a way to change it so that the shortcut command also creates a regular line without need to press CONTROL?

      I know it's a nitpick, but maybe it's something easy to change in the code, if you could tell me what line to change.

      Thanks in advance

    • RE: [Plugin] [$] s4u MultiSlice

      thank you

      sorry to bother you again, just one last question:

      when I do that, it works almost perfect.. it just doesn't create any faces on the slices...
      am I doing something wrong?

      I have 'add section faces' on...

    • RE: [Plugin] [$] s4u MultiSlice

      hi

      I don't get how you do that last cut in the video
      How does it snap to slice(or detach) right at half?
      When I try to do that it just slices the lines from the viewer perspective (like in the move before that)

      thanks

    • RE: Will SketchUp Ever Wear Big Boy Pants?

      @pixero said:

      hide all edges on imported highres geometry

      I do this with every big model -- soften edges: smooth normals, soften coplanar, and about 40 degree angle
      Also disabling "Profiles" in Styles
      Helps a lot.

    • RE: Will SketchUp Ever Wear Big Boy Pants?

      my 2 cents

      the question can be asked in reverse also:

      why are all those big boy apps not as easy/fast to work as Sketchup?
      why aren't they as easy to learn?

      I think all apps have their pros and cons, there is no perfect app.
      Sketchup has always been a fast/easy modeler, even if that comes with the price of not being able to handle high poly models.

      For me, proxies, components and good modeling habbits help a lot to work around those limitations

    • RE: Is a GPU upgrade worth it?

      thats good to know, because my 100+ mb files lag a bit
      but I always thought that it was "normal" and that Sketchup was mostly CPU/RAM intensive, so I kept my old GPU

      definitely going for that upgrade then, thanks for the reply 👍

    • Is a GPU upgrade worth it?

      Hey guys.

      I'm thinking about upgrading my GPU (Nvidia 750ti 2gb) to a Nvidia 1080 8gb.

      I use sketchup 2018 with Vray, and have an i7 6700k with 32gb DDR4 and 2 fast SSDs.

      So, for sketchup and rendering I dont really need a GPU upgrade, but I want to try Lumion for the animations, and a 750ti won't cut it...

      My question is:
      Will I notice a viewport improvement in sketchup with that GPU upgrade? And also a will my CPU+GPU rendering times benefit from that?

      Or is that upgrade (750ti to 1080) only worth it for other 3D software, like Lumion?

    • RE: Need a plugin to do this

      Mesh Maker, that's exactly it!

      thanks all the guys for the help, and Sdmitch for creating this plugin

      I could do it manually, of course, but this saves me a lot of time 👍 👍 👍

    • RE: Need a plugin to do this

      thanks guys, I'll try those plugins

      the intersect grid with surface solution would be ideal, but when I do that some faces dont get properly created and then this happens:

      strange, right?

    • RE: Need a plugin to do this

      thanks, but that's not it...
      that plugin creates an actual solid ceiling grid

      I need something that only divides the face, with lines
