      Arrg and I looked at that more than once so, you do the other direction.. FYI use the stray line and ThomThom's tools and apply multiple times. I had 9 areas I had to fix by hand, about a 3' effort and the face formed by itself!

      There is an online users guide here and an online reference guide here. They aren't pdf's so you can't download either in one shot. You can print each page if you have enough patience. I don't. Maybe Aidan Chopra will be updating his SketchUp for Dummies book??

      Yeah, the Bead is not going to scale without distortion. So you might try separating it into individual components, and setting their positions relative to one another. I used 3, but you might be able to get away with only 2 - the bead, and the rest. Note, too that I changed the Axes of the individual components to make the formulas as simple as possible.

      Hi folks. Make sure that you disable length snapping in Model infos --> Units. It may create unwanted snaps on an invisible grid that may not match your intended intervals. Since SU can accept precise values and its inference engine is also precise, I don't use this feature. Just ideas.

      If you right click on a component and "Change axes", you will modify the component axes only - the world axes will remain in their original position. Right click (carefully) on any of the three world axes to place them elsewhere (if I correctly understand your problem). Hidden geometry is under the View menu. It will reveal any hidden edges and faces as well as softened/smooth edges (like those of a cylinder or sphere for instance). This can be handy if you want to position some texture on them as you cannot access the position texture tools on curved surfaces but you can on the revealed facets when HG is on.

      You can hide the rest of the model whilst editing a component [under edit menu] that way you can see what you are doing and more easily erase unwanted overlaps from the 'intersection with model', by hand...

      I re-imported it in inches and it worked. I figured since it was a german manufacturer plus the spec sheet I had was metric that the cad drawing would be as well. My bad.

      Yes, that's the first thing I did, with the same outcome. It's why I posted it, was wondering if I was the only one or not. Maybe I had two bad downloads, I'll give it a third try.

      Sektchup uses the SKM file format for its materials. to bring in a JPEG go to File>Import>jpeg image. Click the "Use as Texture" button. Attach it to the surface you want, scale it, rotate it, etc until it's where it needs to be. Then in your Materials Palette if you click on the little house icon, "Materials Used in Model" you will see it there. From there you can drag it to the Appropriate Materials library folder for future use as well. You know you're in trouble when you got me giving HOW TO info, but I was at hand and that is how I do it. Good luck. D

      For objects smaller than about a foot across, the "use model extents" checkbox causes the print to be split on many pages, so the way to print to 1:1 is to zoom in close so that the object to be printed fills the screen. Or then scale the model up by 10 and print to 1:10 scale Anssi
