Hi,

I used to work on skp 2015, but recently upgraded to 2017.
Before, i managed to make groups with a keyboard shortcut then right clic and selected "make component" to make one. This was quite fast in the process, as any dialog box opened.
Now, when i right clic (or use shortcut) to make a component, the component dialog box opens and takes a while when I select "create". This makes my workflow uselessely being slower...
Is someone knowing any trick to avoid that dialog box to open ?

Thx

Hi,

(Excuse-me if the subject is solved yet, but I can't find it anywhere)

I have a sconce designed on sketchup, with a light inside. The problem is simple : the light (omni) appears to go through the geometry of my sconce. Maybe the distance between the geometry and the light is too small ? (i ever tried to scale my light very small but no result as far).
I'm sure that some parameter can solve that. Would you know wich one ?

Thank's a lot

(Here is the light result i look for : https://media.restorationhardware.com/is/image/rhis/mod_226_ba_prescott_vanity_sink?fmt=jpeg%26amp;iccEmbed=0%26amp;resMode=sharp2%26amp;wid=1000%26amp;op_usm=1,1,6,0%26amp;op_sharpen=0%26amp;qty=90,0 )

Hi,

As in the picture below, I have a white box with a reflective plan on the ground, and a just a ray of light coming in.

I would like to have a kind of caustics from that ray, something that seems very simple : just a single reflexion on the reflective plan. So it would reflect also on the wall, up to the ceiling.

Is it posible to do so in vray for sketchup ? I put on all the caustics settings i could fine but nothing works.

Thank you very much for your help

Hi,

I found where it could came from. I did an other operation before and made a grid and the plane surface then. I didn't removed that grid, and it might not feet to the new operation (so flowify might calcules with false beginning and ending geometry).
I made an other plane rectangular with any grid and it worked perfectly.
We can still have the model to see what crasy results it mades.

Thanks a lot

issue and solution

[see below]

Hi, great plugin i'm just discovering !
But I also just starting having some issues. I'm trying to build a quite complex staircase silt, with differents curves. As some plugins like "follow me and keep" plugins don't work very well for what i need, my last chance is to make flowify work.
On the picture (0) is the profile and guide. On the picture (1) you can see that flowify is going crazy on the end. I don't know if I did something wrong, but i just followed the tutorials. If I try not to use the entire grid to avoid the crazy end, it appears that the result isn't really scaled (2)...
Any idea of what is going wrong ?

Thanks a lot

Thank you, that worked as i wished

Hi,

On my 3d model, I put a mirror opposite to one other.
When i looked through one on them, I should have a kind inifinite reflexion.
But my render on vray stopped after only three reflexions, as you can see in the attached file.
What parameter should I switch ? I tried things like uncheck "maxdepth" in global switches, but nothing worked for now.

Thx !
