Hi All

I have referred in the past to Dave Richards video on 'mitered moldings' where he uses a cutting plane to create the miter on a molding. I always forget how to do it and need to refer back to the video. It is now unavailable on the 'design-click-build' site for some reason. Does anybody know where I can find it?

My current issue is I'm trying to draw raked or angled walls. One end of the room is 8' tall and the other is 12' tall and there are some other interior walls as well. The only way I can think of how to do this is to draw all the walls at 12' and then use a cutting plane to slice the walls at the correct angle but I can't quite figure out how to do it. Using the trim function in the solid tools doesn't seem to work because it seems my walls (that I made a component) is not a solid. Any ideas on how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

**Hi All

I completed a nice set of drawings in Layout recently and today the designer asked if she could get the drawings in a different scale. When I tried to rescale the drawings the dimensions seemed to follow but the text and other graphic notations that I added did not.
Is there a way to select all of these components (drawing, text and graphic notations, etc.)
and have them all resize to whatever scale I choose in the scale menu?

Thanks so much.**

Well, I just tried rebooting Sketchup for the second time and for some reason everything is fine now.
I have no idea what happened. Thanks for responding though. All the best DaveR!!

OK. I've just noticed that if I open a new document and draw a line that it doesn't show up at all!
Did I mistakenly change my line color or something?

Also, when I zoom in or out the lines reappear but as soon as I stop zooming the line go away again.

HI All

Something changed this morning and I can't figure out what I did.
When I'm viewing my model with textures or shading the lines disappear.
If I view the model in the hidden line, wireframe, back edges or x-ray
view the view goes completely white. See the screenshots below.

What did I do?

Thanks!

Duh! Thank you! That did the trick. Much appreciated.
Thanks goodness for screenshots.

Hi All

I am trying to install the LibFredo and FredoScale plugins but they do not appear in the plugins drop down menu.
I've searched the forums and done the following:

Installed the plugins in the correct spot: see screenshot:

Checked permissions: see screenshot:

Checked Sketchup/preferences/extensions: see screenshot:

I've run out of ideas. Any help is much appreciated!

Hi All

I'm having a problem: when I draw more than one line over a scene in Layout it creates
a white mask over the scene. What's the dealeo? I'm sure I must be missing something simple here.
I've tried drawing on the layer with the scene. I've tried locking the scene layer and drawing
lines on it's own layer. Can't figure it out.

Thanks in advance!

Hi All- I downloaded the sketchup style DRAUGHTSMAN by Eramirez from the styles collection 2011 at the 'sketchup artists' website.
http://www.sketchupartists.org/2011/02/styles-2011/
The shadows for his style shown on the webpage are a beige color but when I downloaded this style my shadows are the standard grey color.
Any idea how to change this?

Thanks
