    • RE: Version 6 Still Available

      Strange why it deletes all geometry instead of want you want deleted? I presume it's not 'Grouped ' or a 'Component'

      As for the mouse, sometimes supplied drivers can cause conflict, especially on Macs. Did it work fine with SU6?

    • RE: Component copy along a circle??

      If you start the copy array and type 360 in the VCB and followed by 22/ you'll get Todd's result

      Maybe he was using an older version of SU because mine goes to 0.0 too???

      At the bottom of Fredo's first post is the plugin you need

      Fredo Link.jpg

      You'll also need to install the LibFredo from this topic

      Again it's at the bottom of the first post

      A chinese language pack was recently added for Chinese users to download so unless you're Chinese or can understand Chinese you don't need it

      There is no worries in installing this on your PC if you follow the instructions

      Would Copy Array using Rotate Tool work for you?

    • RE: How to drill a hole into a contoured surface
      1. Make the Extruded Polygon a 'Group'

      2. Draw the Pipes from its faces

      3. Draw the Base

      4. Right click Extruded Polygon and choose Hide

      5. Triple click Pipes and Base

      6. Intersect with Selected

      7. Delete 'Unwanted' Geometry and redraw missing faces

      8. Triple click Base and right click 'Make Group'

      9. From 'Edit' menu select 'Unhide > All'

      10. Check out Aidan Chopras Videos, http://www.youtube.com/user/aidanchopra, it's very helpful and i'd recommend the book too.

      Make sure you visit back here too because you'll find lots of great help here πŸ‘

      Does this make sense???

      There are easier methods to do this but if you are new to SketchUp i think this may help? πŸ˜•

    • RE: How to drill a hole into a contoured surface

      [EDIT] Gaieus beat me to it 😑

      This is a simple method to achieve your 'Hole through Pie'

      Draw Circle.jpg

      Push Pull.jpg

      Intersect.jpg

      Delete.jpg

      Hole thru Pie.jpg

      There are Plugins which make this mush easier. Tools on Surface and Joint Push Push would be worth installing to see the difference from Su's native tools
