the darndest thing happened today. i havent been using SU for a few months in the office, when i opened a previous model i noticed that none of the shadows were casting on model. i get shadows on the ground plane but not on any face. if i open the same model in some one elses computer i get shadows. i cant figure out what could be wrong... any sudgestions?

i had either followed a link from here or from sketchup artist. it has been quite a while. this is sort of a try to find it.

i disticly remmeber the green trees and sketchup boxes.

it was a tutorial about visualisation and had very easy to follow box diagrams drawn with sketchup and pencil. i need it to explain to some one about setting up cameras properly in sketchup, perspective angles, rhythm and what not.

does any one know of what im talking about?

is there a style that makes hidden lines dashed in sketchup?

cheers mate! now i know why i couldent find a solution for it google.

hm maybe a newbe question but im using sketchup 7.1 and cant find my sandbox. i want to pay. has it gone the way of the dodo along dwgs?

sketchup 7.0 with the first version of vray 1.5 i dont think it was ever updated.
