Hello

Have a series of dynamic beams I created to place them within walls. When I go to view a section cut the beam does not show and it's almost as if the section for the DC is just behind the section cut for the wall and there for blocked by the wall's section fill. anybody ever have this issue? The beams are sized to length using the scale tool so not sure if that is affecting it somehow. When I look in the Dynamic attributes the lengths are all correct (Len X)

Thanks for any insight folks may have.

Is this due to using the trial version?

Probably not. Might be an outdated LibFredo6 install, might be incorrect model setup. Share the .skp file so we can see what you are working with.

Thanks! Attaching the modelled contours

00.10_NW_DWG Contours.skp

Trying to use Toposhaper but none of the dialog boxes open when attempting to generate from contours. Goes through "cleansing contours" progress bar and then a large yellow square appears. Is this due to using the trial version?

Installed Toposhaper (sketchup pro 2021) and when I start out with "cleansing contours it goes to a yellow square with the contours to the side and no toolbar to select the parameters from. seem to be able to work through it by right clicking and selecting "create preview". Ultimately what I'm hoping to do is to adjust the level of smoothing so that I get things like the sidewalks showing up in the examples below. Attaching below terrain done with native sandbox tools, and then done with toposhaper. hoping I can get something between the two in terms of terrain detail and most importantly eliminating the jagged geometry created with sandbox.

Awesome, thanks, had found the (hidden) library folder but at the end of the path there was no "Materials" folder. Added it manually and worked like a charm. Thanks again, was beginning to get very frustrated.

Hi there

Trying to add a material collection (Groundcover) and cannot for the life of me find the 'materials' folder in the FINDER window.

Tried the Ruby script

Sketchup.find_support_file('materials')

which led indicated it was in

/Applications/SketchUp 2013/SketchUp.app/Contents/Resources/Content/materials

But this is all I get on that path
