@thinkbuild said: And to Edson - please check your link - it doesnt seem to work? Very curious what it is supposed to link to. Cheers to all and thanks again the link is fine. the forum is acting funny today.

@thinkbuild said: on a VW2010 thread over at pushpullbar, it was suggested to goto .kmz via google earth and then hack out the kml file ... But I couldn't figure that out with google earth. sigh. Sketchup 7.1+ has built-in Import directly from .kmz and .dae (Collada) Menu: File > Import... Change file type to (.kmz,.dae) and choose the file.

Wordpress apparently uses a subversion repository for their (user submitted) plugins: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/ Cheers, Alex

I later saw Rick's post but well... @kevin_walker said: This won't be a deal breaker for most, however any Chief Architectect users will find v7 files will no longer open in C.A. X-1. Version 6 files will. A work around is to export as 3ds from v7 and import back into Chief with the 3ds file. (I realize this is not a Sketchup problem) Just a note to any Chief Architect X-1 users. I am hopeful for v7 and so far I like some of the new changes. Kevin Kevin, you can always save your SU 7 model in SU 6 format (just scroll down the pulldown on saving). This can always be a workaround with every 3rd party app until they update their importers.

Any more thoughts out there on this subject? Just curious...

G here is a screen shot with the "list" button open. [image: WaSl_Picture2.png] are there are any mac su users out there to share any thoughts? i think something is wrong. it just "feels" like the material panel looks different in my memory but i cant be sure.... hmmmmm.... anybody? thinkbuild.

Great news, Chris! Thanks and I am looking forward to using your great (I hear) plugin
