      I think I was trying something like this but did it wrong. It seems to work OK. Only thing is I would only uncheck style and fog, because I noticed that section cut settings are lost (and probably some other things if I uncheck everything but camera. Unfortunately if you are using different fog settings, they are probably all set to one setting in this process, since style and fog are combined. Thanks.

      @dave r said: @pbacot said: I thought perhaps people would use to files I send to them. I think I'd suggest they use the viewer instead. @pbacot said: I thought I might use it to look at forum files that I can't open because I use an older version, which seems to work. Thanks! That's not a bad idea. I like the viewer. Seems like an online version for THAT would make sense.Or an executable export that worked like it. I use an older version of SketchUp to work in collaboration with others using the older version without having to save it backwards

      I never tried exporting pdf from LO, or don't recall. I'd have to check the results. Consistent automatic naming of the files is helpful to me in the print process I described. One less thing to do (actually several actions), or to go wrong (e.g. when you have to go all the way back to SU file to correct a little thing and then get to your finished output again through LO, especially at deadline). Another thing was the slow print dialog in LO. Each time you choose to print a page it seems to have to re-render it. Just long enough to cause a little blip in your flow.

      I found the link at my window manufacturer site, but there's no indication of what exactly is available. It was becoming a lot of effort to get to something that I may not want anyway. As yet I've not been impressed by a window model I've found online anyway. Even the 2d elevations the manufacturers provide are suspect.

      Thank you. I figured it out, I guess. Simple really. If I select a component in the list, which seems like the normal thing to do,and right-click the "delete" function is grayed out. But for all the non-selected items on the list it is there to use. This is not very clear at first for, if I don't click on it, the component is not identified, except by where I hover the mouse (even the warning doesn't name the component). I guess I just hate the component window, and will not worry about what's in it or not, and go on avoiding it.

      A temporary fix is done with the new API. It is functional again - just some redesign of the results page is now needed. We will do it later this week. Thank you for pointing out this issue...

      Hahahaha GREAT! I didn't know about that wind-borne. Thanks a bunch! That overrides the Apple command. Life's little puzzles solved by Sketchucation.

      Thanks all I'll look into these! I got a an LG as a cheap extra monitor at home and have it set up on HDMI now as a second monitor. Maybe you are talking another LG but I have to say I wouldn't buy another of this class. It does the job but there are definite issues with smaller font and you can see a tiny grid . So I'd hope to get something like the Dell. I don't know what direction to go in a 4k.... [image: 2s2s_ScreenShot2017-04-04at7.08.11PM.png]

I recognize that you are just making an observation, but, for what it is worth, there's the link. Best Regards, mitcorb

      Why not use the Sketchucation Extension Store tool? Then you don't have to sign in every time. And there are all sort of other benefits as well.
