    • Features wish-list

      Of course, the always needed lock toolbars option, another one... the ability to NOT-SHOW the welcome window, 3/5 of the time I open sketchup is by accident, and then I have to close that window, wait until Sketchup opens and then close it again, that has become more and more annoying every single time, and I always use the same Template, for every single model I use.

      Second, I'm tired of the camera movement, I'm orbiting around a piece and slightly move the mouse and I'm miles away from were I was before, that and many, many more annoyances with the camera I really can't stand it.

      Third, one feature that some free software does, that I use very often is, clean duplicate lines/faces, re-orient normals to face correctly and view non-manifold vertex/edges, but that requires me to install the whole MeshLab software, just to use those what? 5-6 tools out of a hundred? (though at least I can export to STL and other formats)

      and last but not least... now, Sketchup doesn't allow one to use the free version for commercial uses (and that is since the 2013 version) really?

      I have used the tools on the trial version and there is NOTHING, I mean NOTHING that I need that the free version doesn't have already, and every single thing is annoying on the free version is on the pro version, so it is not worth it...
      and NO, I don't have 500 dollars, to burn on features I don't need, and still the now very outdated v8 version (which is even more troublesome to use on my computer) is the one that allows me (yes, it does) to sell whatever I do with Sketchup!

      haven't been here on the forums that much but the latest post is the one about locking toolbars, yeah that would be a great adition too
      why i got a downvote? because i told the thruth
      lets see, if that is the way things work, well, i have an idea
      why not have youtube be still free, have their ads as always and its annoying features, autoplay and so, everyone can search and watch freely as many videos as they want, but instead of allowing users to upload videos for free, only allow it to people who pays...mmm half thousand dollars, then they can upload watever they want, would you like that? i mean, some people even makes money by uploading videos, and showing ads, but people bypass ads ALMOST ALWAYs so, why not this PAY feature to really make money
      well thats how i feel about sketchup right now

      bump?
      nah, just updating the WHISHLIST

    • RE: Question about sketchup for figure and jewerly designers

      actually i've been working for months but i forgot to mention what i did to solve my SCALE problem
      i just changed the template to be in centimeters and enable precision of a centimeter and two digits on the right for the milimeters
      then when converting to another format i use inches and that way it works great(specially when converting to stl, i don't know why it works but it does for me)
      so it is always the size i need it to be, and don't need to rescale (and the problems it has)

    • RE: Question about sketchup for figure and jewerly designers

      not right now, i make my models in the actual scale and with some measure modifications before exporting i have solved the format problem
      now the only one left is the camera movement, but thats more a problem within sketchup, i think is because it is oriented for big models
      anyway here is what i have done(accessories for transformers figures mostly; they are made for 3D printing)
      http://www.shapeways.com/hisdesign?user_id=110512
      yeah is my shop in shapeways, but i cant access to my disc from the attachment function of this forum
      anyway, the models actually went pretty good but now i have no motivation to do more, because a model that went broken(its explained in another post i have here)

    • RE: Question about sketchup for figure and jewerly designers

      because at smaller scales the problems are bigger
      if i do a model scaled up and then scale it down, everything get messed up
      i dont know how to explain it
      you have to try yourselves
      but believe me, while some models work, most dont
      try a model in meters and then scale it down 100
      then check the model
