Big thanks. Will test it now.

Interesting find: When I turn off UAC (User account control) completely in Vista I can once again access the drive.

I know,... but honestly, they are going to do what they want or what they are told to be done. it is not our subject anymore.

@plot-paris said: Jan, I am afraid your serious attempt to state some wishes for SU7 turned into a fun thread worth of the corner bar. I apologize for that! although it is really funny Sorry Plot. I couldn't resist.

Updated the script to fix a bug in re-materialing coloured back-faces... Please re-download this version...

Great work, especially how you incorporated the person into. PS? Stunning

You could capture keystrokes in a modal webDialog - this will override any SU keyboard shortcuts - but beware irritating users who are used to using a shortcut for "select" that effectively cancels any active tool. Either query the shortcut list for the "select" shortcut and use it to cancel your modal webDialog, or create a really obvious "cancel" button or key.

Never noticed anything funny going on with opengl on my machine either.

Ok. I'll keep an eye on when Podium 2 is released then. Any time frame for it? If there is anyone else interested in making this exporter let me know.

Pixero, Another solution is simply to draw the cursor as a circle with the method view.draw2d available in View class at the position of the cursor (this is how I do for my protractors). You just adjust the size of your circle based on your current parameters. To make the Sketchup cursor disappear, I guess the best would be to have an 'empty' png file (or a cross or whatever you want to design the hot spot) Fredo

@rv1974 said: Your "warm autumn" lighting is so tasty! How do you achieve it? I render in VRayIMG format then convert to EXR (a HDR format) so I can re-expose the render in Photoshop. Then I use lots of color correction, a new sky, reflections and trees, people and other bits and pieces and then painted shadows in a blue/purple hue to fit the lighting I'm after. I've learnt a lot from some mattepainting tutorials. Its just that I was going for a spring/early summer feeling...

@unknownuser said: How would the RGB way look? a lot more complicated ... you can try to save as png, find the offset inside the file where color is store, pack("m") @unknownuser said: What if the image was bigger say 64x64 pixels? donno. i used 1x1 pixel to keep the file to minimum make a hash of the file that you create via the script to see if it is written properly

Thanks Gai and Coen for recognizing it.

See this thread: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=153&t=1528&p=41330#p41330 And once more, thanks for helping!

Problem solved. I found that the server.dat file was pointing to the old name of the server. When I copied the file from my machine it points to the right license file and now it all works.

re: shadow bug. Why don't Google just buy / licence the fix from this company then? As previously stated, this is huge problem, def not becoming from a pro app (seeing the pro version also has the problem).

I agree this would be a nice addition.

Thanks now it works. I'd forgot to put the icon in.
