This needs a light to be shined on it. So take look and be amazed.

Wow great to see SU used to design the cutting edge Honda Experimental home
go to the downloads tab to download the SU model file

Unfortunately Nick, your going to have to write a book on your process. Please We are all waiting....

Would like to see grips function added to line segments, in order to grab a line at the end or mid point for quick edit of line work

I cannot edit scrapbooks in 2013 LO. LO 8 works no problem. Although, I can create a new item and save as a scrapbook item. Not sure what deal is.

Yes I have located the folders. But there is nothing in them

I have been able to locate the Layout 2013 file stored on my hard drive but there is scrapbooks folder with nothing in it. Even after I checked the box to Show All Hidden Files and Folders.
I checked both locations listed in the preferences in Layout.

Next, if I try to edit one of the standard scrapbook pallets. I get a strange message as soon as I click the edit button. See Attachment.

I tried re-downloading Sketchup 2013 and repairing but to no avail.

As an experiment I can edit SU8 scrapbooks no problem. But same problem I can't seem to find where the default scrapbooks folders are stored

I also looked for my Scrapbook folder in Layout and it is not there

Could you use the trim command in the solids tool set? You would have to group each set of objects and make each watertight. Once finished ungroup and delete the not needed planes, lines etc... A lot less work than you are currently doing??

I have not made any changes to any folders that I am aware of

Suddenly been getting the following message

"Error Loading File C:/Program Files (x86)/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/toolbars/files/loader.rb
Could not find included file 'C:/Program Files (x86)/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/toolbars/files/loader.rb'"

Funny, I searched all SU 2013 folders and I don't see the preconfigured LO sheets. But they are available when layout is open

DiBac plugin looks promising. Unfortunately, website order form is not in English, so I will have to wait to purchase

After creating several elevation scenes of my model I start cutting sections. Then I noticed in my elevation scenes there is a grouped object plane where the now turned off section line was. Is this new to 2013? I don't remember SU8 have this. I put the section cut plane on a layer to control visibility but the group plane line is still there. I have to select it and put on the section cut layer

I created a custom title block from a blank Arch D sheet. It looks good and I saved it in a folder in Layout 2013 called "My Custom Title Blocks". I consider this a template that I can use for each new project. I am unsure how to "Save" or "Save As" a new project file. Do I just give it a new name? If hit "Save" it will just update my custom template correct?

I too have been having Buildedge crashes. I recently added a 2gb graphics card and I thought it behaved better. It does still crash. I can make it crash if I build a model (floor, walls & roof) then explode the model, after that I go and click the BE tool and it crashes

I still am having Buildedge crashes. Brendon contacted me and I responded. I cannot locate a .log file

I have noticed that when I commit to SU or explode the BE geometry it will crash once I envoke BE again

I dont have version 1 on my computer anymore. Is it required to run version 2?
I uninstalled version 2 to see if it would help make it stable. It seemed to be working ok and then it started crashing again. I submitted a ticket to the help desk and they asked for the .log file I cant it find it.

Aaron
I submitted a ticket on the help page regarding the crashes. I am sure they will be able to sort it out

Thanks
Paul
