Do not forget to read the documentation before asking.

OK, thanks, that is simple solution. Works.

Thanks. This one was quite [highlight=#008000:39tvc7vr]helpful![/highlight:39tvc7vr]

And where is definited UI?

That's from the API - defined in C++.
Look to the documentation: https://developers.google.com/sketchup/docs/ourdoc/ui

Of sure, he tells where to download total package, but not that I need to download the package. What confused me that I am not used for plugin posts which does not contain any plugin... I would say, this is confusing. And I don't see sense of this thread. If the file would be there for separate download then it would give a sense to me.

And this plug does not do what I wanted (in the way as I would like to see it - see above).

Include the rounded corners and the deformed areas, and the fix in the one component. Do it once then duplicate it to correct positions. Or if more work is needed, do it in one component and it's done to all the duplicates you've made. You may wish to add all of the surrounding faces into the component, until all you have is four identical components side by side, or more....ad infinitum or until SU crashes 😮

To deform faces, I found very useful, fast and simple to use this tool:

TGI3D: move

It is much more better then LSS deformation functions which are too slow (and create extra group, which is not needed in my case)

Yes, something similar - if you mean the previous topic. In the last post I speak about 3 strings, like you have a phone cable, so there are 3 strings. Maybe I do not choose right words, English is not my native language.

But I think, I should try something. Fredo Scale has twisting tool. But I did not succeed to twist the tubes (paralel ones). I made a group of 4 pipes and tried to twist them. Should it work?

Edit: Once I suceed just a little bit. I exploded the group and selected all tubes. Then I twisted them, but just a little bit. Now I cannot succeed nor a bit. But I doubt that this tool would twist more times, like 9999°

Edit2:
So it is a kind of twist which is not possible to repeat more times. The object either de-twist itself or it get strange kind of twist, not like the wires of cable...

Hi Tig, hi folks.

Sorry for the error, I edited my previous post.

Thanks and best regards.

After some time, I'm back with the same problem. I was trying cca 60x and then came here... and now I tried the same as in the images and... does not work. Why? Maybe you could just add one more detail to the image (copy and CLICK). So when I tried just "move the copy and position and then type" or "copy, move and type and then click", it does not work. So now I understand that I must "move the copy, position, CLICK, and then type..."

BTW: Why did you decolored the icons of edit box? This looks so ugly and bad for orientation.

I think the model will be extensive and will not suite GE criterions... As I understand street view project, they want the buildings to be as simple as possible. But in my project I try to do it as nice as possible. Hence my model will cost a lot of space (on disk).

Super cool never thought to bend a 2D image with the Fredo Scale! 👍

As a proof that units and correct scale on the start of Match photo, I attach scaled beginner file. As I measured distances on GoogleEarth, so have almost exact data. This is almost the scale where the bridge should fit.

Measured Distance according GE photo (top down view) is 6734 cm, distance from first pylon base to bush. In my model I have 7025 and I scaled the beginners model to cca 68m.

See the attachment how the scale model looks and "fits".

I've reinstalled ... Same as before. I also have no plugin menu.

Edit:
Installation file contains bug which cannot install some files into path containing unicode characters. You could not have the same problem if you installed SU into default path. Now I reinstalled into different path containing no unicode strings. Well, I am not sure if "unicode" is problem, but charset problem is 100%.

I found it very helpful.

Yes, that is that what I tried few times. I succeed to create one guide line, but only one, not much success. I must train.

Yeah, but the original image is in grayscale and does not

extra quality

Its very blurred and low detail.

This is photo from GE, and much more better quality:

I start the project from point zero. Moderator can close this topic.

Mitcorb is right, I have to delete the triangles and create some inner edges.

Apparently they can be changed once you change the Color by the axis . They change once with the lines .
As far as I know !

Perhaps there are some plugin but I don't know one yet !

Take care !
