hi guys
although ive been using sketchup for years now im suddenly having trouble with the blue screen of death!!
it only happens when i am using skethup and obviously just when ive been creating for ages without thinking to save my work!

the stop code i get is: MULTIPLE_IRP_COMPLETE_REQUESTS

I have been through all the graphic card updates and checked that they are up to date.
Can anyone help me out before I throw the pc out the window?
(PS i am a landscaper , so not the most pc literate person, so please be kind!)

IFC BIM Sketchup with 2 level

Hi all,

I want to export a IFC of a assembly of 2 components: electricity box and heating system for exemple.
I create 2 components for this 2 stuffs and assign " IfcUnitaryEquipmentType" classification with the maximum of attribute for each component.
I try to create a main componant that group the 2 components. I try to assign " IfcUnitaryEquipmentType" , and several other classification to this parent BUT

When I export this file into IFC, Exporter “flatten” this structure by merging subcomponent with all informations.

What can I do to get an IFC with the entire structure ?

I’m not sure to be clear because I’m newbies in IFC and not so fluent in english.

Best Regards

More Color by Layer groups

@Paolo wrote:

I think that color by layer could become more useful if there were the possibility to have different groups of colors for different uses. For example, to assign different colors to the different type of structures: walls, windows etc (group of colors A). Then have another line of colors assigned to: new walls, demolished walls, permanent walls (group of colors B).
If in a scene I wanted to see a structural view of my building, I would assign Color by layer A. If I wanted to see a scene where demolished and rebuild parts are shown, I would assign Color by layer B and so on.

Now a component or group can have just one color, depending on its layer. if I could have more than one color it would add a new order of visibility. In big projects, with many components, it could simplify the logical organisation of the system and its visualisation.

More diagrammatic Outliner

@Paolo wrote:

I usually use sketchup with two monitors, and I think it would be more efficient if I could use the outliner in full screen mode. Also, I think its current visualisation is quite small and sad. I think it could have a better use if its symbols were more apparent and colorful, and also with the opportunity to have some reference to existing layers, for example with colors.

Simple animation with 3 scenes

Infrequent user here. Constructed a simple 3 layer model (floor coatings) and wanted to animate the layers into an exploded view. Scene 1, all layers are together. Scene 2 a little further apart and scened 3 further apart still. When I move a layer just a bit and create a new scene, I then update the scene. This saves ALL scenes as the same new slightly exploded view. What am I doing wrong?

Vector Print Changes Perspective

When I am ready to print and I select the vector option, once I print the perspective will stretch and shrink where it then won’t allow me to put back into a 2 point perspective and the green and blue when scaling are off. Hard to explain, but is there a solution, without closing out the drawing without saving? Thank you.

I've lost my model within the file

Hi,

I’ve been using ketchup for a little while now to develop plans for my house, but something unusual has happened.

Whilst drawing, I noticed that as I rotated around the model it would show me a section through the house, as if there was a dynamic section tool being used.

Then, I clicked zoom extents and the model disappeared. I can see a tiny dot on the horizon, using the axes, I can tell that this is where my lost model is, but I can’t seem to zoom up to it and using the window zoom doesn’t help either.

I’ve lost about 4 hours of work if I can’t get this back, please help!

Ok, so for some reason google sketchup pro 2017 is giving me the fits with one tool option.

Shift+left click is not bringing up the pan option all the time.

If i have the pencil tool, or push tool etc etc in use, and i hold shift + LC, it will not allow me to pan, it still draws a line, pushes am object or does what ever tool is in me hand haha. Is there a way to change that or at least assign a hotkey to the pan option?

Panning is so nice for me:)

thanks

I know this is such a small and possibly dumb question but its making me crazy haha

Tapering A 3D Spiral/Helix/Screw Thread?

Hi all,
I’m pretty new to the whole modelling curved geometries thing & am currently making a screw thread. I’ve modelled the actual thread now, but am wanting to taper off the ends of the thread as you’d see on a self-threading screw. I’ve tried using ‘solid tools’ to ‘subtract’ a curved object from the thread, but that makes all the geometry go weird & faces disappear for some reason. Any other clue as to how this might be done?
Image of my model in case that helps:

In case it helps, I’ve made my screw thread using the method shown here:

Push the 45

Greetings. I am new to the forum. I am a cabinetmaker and have been using Make 2017 for quite sometime. I have attached a 45push.skp file. I am stumped on how to do the following.

Note the 9 “boxes”. Each box is 3" x 3" x 1" (and they are not grouped). Note the blue “square” (it is grouped). The blue square has been rotated 45 degrees. I want to move the center of the rotated blue square onto the top of the center of box number 1. Then I want to PUSH “down” the “blue square” into “box 1” to a depth of 3/8". When that is performed the tips of the blue square will additionally cut into boxes 2, 3, 4, and 5.

I can’t seem to conquer the process to end up with a clean recess downward into all 5 boxes. I would really appreciate someone’s help.

Thanks so much for any assistance.

I am using SU 2018 Pro and have been having a problem with the zoom when I use the wheel on my Microsoft mouse. Sometimes it works fine then it will all of a sudden zoom in/out very slowly then it will switch back and work fine again. There doesn’t seen to be anything that triggers it. This is very frustrating. does anybody have any idea how to resolve this?

Exhibition stand for agribusiness exhibition

Today I was visiting the facilities of an agribusiness fair that is being set up for the sector of reforestation, agriculture and livestock. Me and my father will expose our products (Pinnus forest seedlings).

My father had doubts as to how the two Pinnus trays would be arranged at the booth, further down the side or in the middle of the booth. So I decided to take a picture to later design the booth in Sketchup to have a preview of what the trays would look like.

In less than half an hour I drew everything and then he can have a clear vision of how they would look. He liked!

Here is the photo:

Can copies inherit layer?

@kentonbowser wrote:

I want to spawn x copies of a group within a dynamic component. I set the first instance of the group to a layer, but the copies don’t inherit the layer when they spawn. Since the number of these copies is supposed to be dynamic, setting the layering individually isn’t a viable option. Is there a way to set the layer in attributes that would be passed along to the copies?
