      How can edges and their respective faces live on separate layers? That's just crazy. 😲

      If you heed Google's directions for using Layers, faces and edges are supposed to be on the same layer, Layer 0. It's only components and groups that get other layer associations. πŸ˜’
      True. But it's just not an intuitive tool, unline pretty much everything else in SU.

    • RE: HIDING AND UNHIDING WITH SCENES QUESTION

      The whole Outliner/Layers metaphor in SU is odd.

      The Outliner actually works more like the Layers palette as found in apps like Photoshop. But otherwise works well.

      The Layers palette just annoys me. Why no sub menu to see what each layer contains?

    • RE: Must Have Ruby Plugins - Visual Index (Discussion)

      There really should be something like a wiki to organize and show examples for ALL the plugins living here.

      Here's v1.1 http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=287140#p287140
      It fixes a rare potential 'PI' glitch if you don't have certain other scripts installed...

      Thanks!

    • RE: Benefit of Two-Point Perspective mode?

      @dave r said:

      It allows you to make 2D Perspective views. Vertical lines in the model will be shown as vertical while horizontal lines will recede toward vanishing points.

      So it's more for making printouts/presentations than for modeling?

      I haven't found a non-destructive way of achieving this effect. 😞

      If both the objects are groups/components - select them both and choose Intersect > With Selection. The edges are then created in the current context and not inside the groups.

      Not the result I would have expected from that command! Thanks! πŸ€“

      @hellnbak said:

      Is there any way to have a line show where to components intersect each other (as indicated in first photo)? Sometimes it would add a little visual interest to a project.

      Like this?
