Looks nice Jeff! @unknownuser said: i was wondering though, if those steps can be automated? This is the reason I mentioned faces and not using pictures. I think it would be easier to create faces in code, and then assign materials to them. As I said there is not much one can do in code with the current dimensions. So converting SU dimensions might be a no go. I would rather have a plugin create their own dimensions from scratch. Quite doable When static. But do see some problems when the dimension would have to update. I imagine thats what Driving dimension does.. Their code is scrambled...

Would something like this be what you're after? I included the edges but you wouldn't have to in order to get the dimensions. Just put the dimensions on their own layer or layers, put the rest of the model on other layers. Turn off the model leaving only the dimensions visible. Export an image to the same dimensions as the rendered image and overlay it in your favorite image editor. [image: 6115710417_5709bf20d8_z.jpg]

This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks guys. Just a quick question, but is there any way to set the X and Y in the rubyscript to the current sketchup active window size? Something like, but not necessarily / keys = { ;filename => "c;/tmp/write_image.png", ;width => ActivewindowResX, ;height => ActivewindowResY, ;antialias => false, ;compression => 0.9, ;transparent => true } model = Sketchup.active_model view = model.active_view view.write_image keys
