Does the area obstructed show up in the image after capturing? I have had it look like it was clipped, and then after saving the view for the animation it worked.

Wyatt Thompson, PLA posted an update in the group SketchUp 13 years, 10 months ago

Eric, I’ll try and help but I need some more info. It might be that you’re experiencing a known “clipping” problem. That usually occurs when your model is located really far from the origin. Is that the case? Does the problem occur in all the time, or just in certain scenes? Could you repost the image from a different vantage point with the axis…[Read more]

I am having issues with an aerial view of a site I’m trying to create a fly through for. When I position the camera, some of the area is obstructed like there is a plane in from of part of the view. Any suggestions?

Hey John,
Your blog looks great! We’ve added it to our blog roll. Keep up the good work…

Steve Mercer posted an update in the group SketchUp 13 years, 11 months ago

Believe me, if I could do it all in SketchUP Pro I would! The problem is that for Construction Drawings and Deliverables and for importing Civil Data from Survey Instruments, SketchUP is not your best tool. It lacks the 2d CAD capablilities of a standard CAD package. It is getting better though. BricsCAD (or -let me hold my nose here- Auto…[Read more]

Hi David and John!

See my discussion “Land FX plug-in for Sketchup” When I was talking with Stephanie I included a typical work flow.
Hope this helps!

Do you have a topic to contribute to the SketchUp Land blog shown above or a pressing question you would like answered? Let me know!

Richard E. Scott posted an update in the group Graphics Teacher Workshops 13 years, 11 months ago

I wanted to explain the comment below about me no longer teaching graphics workshops after 2011 (from good friend Brandon Reed). From mid-year 2011 forward, I’ll be teaching fine art workshops (drawing, watercolor, and oil painting). I have no plans on teaching Color Mastery or Freehand Perspective Sketching (workshops aimed at Landscape…[Read more]

I just signed up for the Color Mastery Class in February. If anybody is interested in splitting the cost of a hotel room, feel free to send me a message.

Just a quick note for all of you who were ever considering taking a Color Mastery or Perspective Sketching Class from Richard Scott….He has just informed me that this year will be his last year that he will EVER BE TEACHING these classes! So if you were ever thinking of taking one…Please go to http://www.graphicsteacher.com and sign up today! I can…[Read more]

would anyone be interested in selling their used workbooks from the workshops to me? I live in Australia and in the near future, not able to travel to the States to attend the graphic workshops.

Great. Glad to help. 🙂

I am using SU8 and that worked perfect. Thank you so much Wyatt!

Wyatt Thompson, PLA posted an update in the group SketchUp 14 years ago

It sounds like you want the photomatch view without the photo showing. Is that correct? Are you using SU8? Open the Styles window and click on Modelling Settings (the last icon). At the bottom there are toggles for the match photo background.

Dave Breiter posted an update in the group SketchUp 14 years ago

Wyatt, I brought a photo in for photo matching, I then outlined the buildings and faces that I needed to create 3D models of. I then used the orbit tool to move the camera which takes me into the 3D drawing mode where I applied materials to the faces in my model. I then created a scene with the 3D model. So, now I have the automatically generated…[Read more]

Wyatt Thompson, PLA posted an update in the group SketchUp 14 years ago

Dave, it might be helpful if you could describe more specifically what you’re trying to do, because I’m not sure I understand your question. The purpose of Photomatch is to move the camera so it sets the view of the model to align to a photo you are trying to match. Can you not use scenes to switch back and forth between the different views?…[Read more]

Dave Breiter posted an update in the group SketchUp 14 years ago

Does anyone know how to switch from the 2D sketching mode to the drawing mode in photo match without adjusting the camera angle? I have buildings outlined perfectly in the sketching mode but the only way I can tell to switch to the drawing mode is with the POV tools and to do that my model no longer has the correct camera view.

Thank you,
Dave

Thanks Daniel!

Does anyone know the estimated total number of Google SketchUp users in the U.S. or world wide?

Dave Breiter posted an update in the group SketchUp 14 years, 2 months ago

I’m really stumped on the whole photo match feature in SU. I have a project where I need to show a new streetscape design meshed with a photo of the existing street and I can’t for the life of me get photo match to work right. I have viewed several of the tutorial videos on YouTube but I am just not able to get the origin or the axis to come out…[Read more]
