Is there a way to toggle hidden geometry to un-smoothed, hard lines?

Solo, Could you use Amenia County's GIS - has 5' contour linework (raster) online, although it's off the county's lidar set - don't know if that's available.

and pretty good aerials

I don't know about NY, but here in NZ Google only uses NASA srtm and it's nowhere near 5', it's more like 15m if you're lucky!
Hi all and happy new year
While English IS my language Maths is not so please excuse my bumbling...
Would it be possible to use a spatial poisson-point process (above) to generate semi-random, mixed plant size, mass planting plans within a defined (but irregular) shape?
In my ideal world the user would (1) define an enclosing (most likely irregular) shape
2 - Enter a series of circles of different diameters representing plants (preferably as components).
3 - Enter an area coverage ratio for each plant (ie percent of shape area allocated to that species)
4 - Enter a figure for repulsion to stop plants' circles overlapping each others' stems/centres and/or to vary plant density (see randomForest.jpg).
The circle diameters and coverage rations could be premade in a txt file.
I'd be happy if it was possible at first to generate a random set of points in a shape, that alone would help enormously. I'd also be happy to pay someone to write this if they thought it possible
Thanks Migmat for exploring and showing us how to use this very useful tool.
Thanks very much TIG
When I followed the ref from the layout file, everything was there, somehow surviving one normal reinstall, plus a switch to 64bit (and major reinstall), and several mass cleanouts of the system!
Thanks for trying Pixero, fortunately it's an old file and the job is finished. I was just hoping to get some objects out of it. It would be nice to know how it was corrupted so I can avoid it happening again.
Hi, I have a .skp file, created in SU 8.0 free about 2 years ago (before I bought Pro), SU won't open it giving me 'This does not appear to be a sketchup file'. Unfortunately I don't have the backup file now. The file is 11.8Mb (and doesn't zip down much), but I've put a copy on Dropbox https://www.dropbox.com/s/0m5n7nkykk0frny/008.ec.skp just in case.
Is there any other way of opening skp files though?
Thank you TIG, that's one amazing plugin, even gives me a nice little solid cut/fill object, SU just became a whole lot more useful.
Thanks to all, I reloaded the advanced camera tools msi, but still couldn't get the old view, having had a look at the new one (attachment) it seems to be fine
Hi all, when I've wanted to adjust a scene / view I've always used:
menu>camera>advanced (see attached image)
and a nice dialog pops up with a lot of controls, I used it all the time, but where has it gone? I don't actually know if it's native to SU or a plugin, but it sure would be useful to get it back.
cubcrafter - many of the lines have gaps in them (double click any line and normally you'd get the entire line; not the case with many of your lines) - get thee to http://www.smustard.com/script/StrayLines and you'll find a free tool to help you find them. Then you can join them manually by adding lines to the gaps, it's worth running this on any imported ACAD (or any dxf or dwg file) import.
OR this (US20.00) plugin helps you close them http://www.smustard.com/script/CloseOpens - well worth the money I'd say.
Here's a discussion on the issue http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=24427&p=211465&hilit=lines+joined+gaps#p211465
Hi AndyG
put your SU version number and OS in your details - gets you better answers.
Get very familiar with making components and drawing cleanly.
A lot of counting discussions on here are furniture or fitout related.
You'll probably find you have to put a few different things together but
ComponentReporter++ v1.2 should get you started:

also a very recent discussion and plugin discussion re component counting:
http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=53966&p=489393&hilit=count+components#p489393
Every time I close SU (since about 4 days ago) I get an error message
Otherwise all is fine, and system appears stable.
No recent hardware upgrades on system. Has anyone else seen this?
SU is Pro 8.0.16846
System in win 7 64bits
I was looking at one of Eneroth's plugins and when I went for more info was surprised it took me straight to their w3 page
Have a look at a q I asked on this here http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=41324&p=367029&hilit=numbering+trees#p367029 - it's well on the way there
Thanks for doing that Mike (and I don't know why my sad-face icon didn't show).
Unlike most sites I actually want to see the ads here.
Is there a way to see all the adverts on the site?
The other week I glimpsed an ad as the page was loading (which looked really promising, although I don't even have a trace memory of what it was), which immediately vanished as a new one came up http://sketchucation.com/forums/posting.php?mode=post&f=76#.
This http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=253563#p253563 should help your turn your points into a nice terrain. Read the plugin page: there's quite a few cases there.
If you're searching here a search like: autocad survey data should pull up some useful things.
As for the metadata with the lines this should help bring it in: http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=23002&p=318195&hilit=ImportDXFtext#p318195, I was hoping to view the data - but I was dismayed to find your file was 2013 http://sketchucation.com/forums/posting.php?mode=reply&f=15&t=53812#
Thanks very much Didier - three-point circles were one big part of my wish-list
Agree with hellnback
When Trimble make some real changes (e.g. bring back .shp import, introduce real arcs, fix plane clipping, open api or whatever to enable real-time Excel/.xls work, oh and how about a simple built-in spreadsheet too) then I would change.
