Thank you for your answers! Especially pbacot. I'm gonna try your suggestions. This is the reason, I love this community.

What is the best way to bring TIN-ground to level with buildings? I tried to draw extra TIN-lines and move up, but the results are not good. I've also tried thomtoms vertives tools, but I can't get it to work.

Hmm, maybe I didn't say it correctly..
I've attached the picture, the arrow shows what I'm trying to say

I remember that some plugin did this but I just can't remember the name.

Ok! And which plugin can make slopes on both sides of the road? Ground elevation I mean.

What is the best way to create faces/triangulate from edges.
What plugins can you use? Fredoshear?

If you check out the SKP file, you can see that there are many little edges...

Thank you.

check out

I don't think there is a tool like that...

Hello,

Is there a plugin which enables selection by drawed line?

I mean that can I draw the selection which chooses groups, components, edges or faces. Just like lasso tool in Photoshop? This would help me a lot, thank you!

TIG, your plugin makes Sketchup 2015 crash when there's lots of edges.

A question about road intersection with ramps.

What would be the best/easiest way to make faces for the ramps?
I managed to get face with sandbox contours, but what about any plugins?
See the picture.

Slope down, for example for some area. So all the vertices could be on same level on that area.

Hello,

How can I flatten a TIN terrain in certain places?

Thanks for answer, but I don't think it's a good way...
It's too heavy, so Sketchup crashes.

I tried one small lake/pond with your instructions (moved it down with z), but I don't think this will work...or I didn't understand.

It looks nice with normal drape, but it's sad that they are not own group.

Hi,

I draped these edges to the TIN-mesh and my question is, can I somehow remove them if I want or are they now connected to the mesh? Because when i try to remove one edge, mesh breaks.

Is there a possibility to make them as group?

A question about terrain (again )

I've cleaned the ocean from this terrain with select faces by Z, but as you see the coast seems quite blocky. Is there a way to make it better?

Can you remember the plugin? I checked thomthoms plugins from the store, but I don't know which one it is...

Hello,

A question about contours/sandbox tools. This is an small island. You see the coastline? Is is possible that when making face from contours, sketchup could recognize the outer line so I don't have to erase all edges to the coastline.

Sorry for bad english, but you get the point?

I'm using Sketchup 2014 pro/Windows 7.

Got it working, I don't know what was the problem...
profile completed.

Hi,

Is there any alternatives to multiple pushpull plugin?
I upgraded from 8 to 2014 and Sketchup throws errors on startup for this plugin.

http://www.cad-addict.com/2009/09/sketchup-plugins-extrude-multiple-faces.html

I often use makefaces plugin and multiple push pull with cads, so I don't have to extrude each face separate.

Yep, i'm now importing (triangulating) a house which has over 200 000 points, is it always this slow?

If you have tried Bentley Pointools software, it's very fast to use but it's shame that there's no proper editing options. I have the trial now.

It merges the LAS files and I can export XYZ file out, but importing to sketchup is pain in the butt (cloudv8).

Is there a faster way with other software?
Can you give examples, if you have cloud format, which software you use to manage it?

Importing to meshlab is not always working.

Thanks in advance guys!

Hello

I read that this plugin was discontinued.
Is there any other options to get POD, LAS or xyz cloud files into sketchup?

Yes, i know the cloud plugin and I have used it but it reads only asc, txt.

So what would be the best option?
