@Dave-R I had nice pyjamas with that pattern. I was in my Napoleon phase at the time.

@Gus-R Now you're just showing off with the McTwist

@ntxdave get well soon

@majid Those latest images look like a Mars colony.

@HornOxx we have yet to complete the menu for this new forum.

But if you visit our homepage and hover the PluginStore menu you can access Buy Extensions.

I'll add it to these forums next week. It's Paddys Weekend here so I'm enjoying the extended weekend.

Hello Can someone help me, I don't know how to dimension an angle. No matter how hard I look, I can't find any tool for that. Thank you for your help

No, TrueBend will generate the internal loops it needs to do the bending. So that's probably the most efficient method.

I only used QFT to help me cut loops so Smoove would work.

Sometimes it's easier to start 2D flat and progress to 3D then add gentle deformations...

With the 'crude' form you can then let SUbD do the heaving lifting.

But, like your other thread this is now unrelated to creating materials.

My advice to practice, make mistakes, try fix them yourself and rinse repeat.

@L-i-am Handsome stuff as always.

If you import the exported dwg back into SketchUp do you see double lines?

If NO it could be the importer in your app that's the cause. If YES, then there maybe something in the source SKP file.

Once you include a secondary app into the mix the likely cause would be harder to detect. Can you reproduce on just a small sample of geometry?

You don't open .scflicense files

Download the file to your device

Open SketchUp

Go to Tools > Fredo Collection > RoundCorner > License...

Click Activate and navigate to the location of the downloaded license file and click Open

To me it looks like the dimensions of the texture for the material are not the same as the image.

I've encountered this when I create a material using a non-uniform texture dimension. Then I decide to switch the image texture for another non-uniform image.

You end up with a material that has its width and height skewed and resetting doesn't consider the image dimensions.

Did you try right clicking Texture > Reset

I believe the issues I'm seeing are extension related.

Try having the ruby console open while your painting to see if there's a clue.

It may make the Liam of today cringe. But that younger Liam could still do something a very small percentage of people can.

I don't think there's a 'bad' render. But there are renders where the user didn't experiment enough or settled on a result. They are both serviceable images if the point was 'a day time interior.'

I think that as you rank up in rendering more and more factors need considering. That leads to more knowledge. Some plateau at a level and other keep pushing. Every push places you into a smaller and smaller bracket.

Rendering is science in my opinion.

You're slightly misunderstanding what Rich is saying/doing.

I must take the stone out of me mouth before I speak

Another thing you can do is the rename the .style to .zip and poke around to see the stroke styles.

Best way to deconstruct is to load a style into StyleBuilder to see what setting were used where.

The environment maps included play a big role to get a suitable appearance...

The roughness doesn't quite match the expected result with certain HDRs

Definitely a nice addition to have in the viewport. SKP file sizes obviously take a hit because of the additional maps packed into the file.

Yummy. Great feature to add.

@Dave-R You plan to print that? Its a beautiful model.

Soon you'll be able to open a digital museum of historical devices

Use StyleBuilder to export the Template to generate to linework.

You can print the template or use an image editor to add linework to the boxes.
