hello I‘m com from china，I hope we can share experience in project.

Thanks for the help.

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.

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…

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!

hello guys…
 
glad to join the group.

Let me just add to my last with a couple of tidbits. Don’t worry about taking all the tests at once. I have not noticed a lot of overlap – each section almost entirely pertains to its stated material. Frankly, I think folks that say “that test had nothing but section # material on it!” likely did not prepare long enough to know that they were be…[Read more]

I’ve posted a notice for my upcoming LARE ABD Workshop in January under the events section of this site.

You’re welcome. I hope it helps. I’m using this method now to study for Section B.

I’ve taken two of the three multiple choice exams and passed those two the first time using the following method. I wrote a blog entry somewhere on this site expanding on this method but here it is in a nutshell: It may seem strange at first but it works – apparently. You should know I have no LA degree so I had even that much more of a hand…[Read more]

I might suggest that taking A&D at the same time might be a good approach as well. There was quite a bit of material that seemed to overlap on the 2 tests…might as well study it all at once!
 
I took all 3 at the same time. It is indeed doable if you follow Ray’s suggestions. I spent about 6 weeks studying intensively…an hour or two every…[Read more]

Taking all 3 multiple choice tests at the same time is doable, but a lot depends on the individual.
Are you over-worked? (Sadly those employed generally are, due to the “attrition” the profession has experienced)
Do you have kids, significant others, sick parents, do a lot of onerous volunteer work?
How focused are you at test preparation?
 
If…[Read more]

If you look through these LARE blogs, there have been suggestions…And my office had some old stuff laying around. Also some people buy the PPI exams and then share the cost with others, or if you take the classes you can get info. There were LARE classes at the national convention that I took last year in Chicago, $50 each, and that gave me…[Read more]

I just finished all the LARE exams, and since I am in California I also took and passed the CA exam. I took C and E together and A, B, D together. If you don’t mind studying and are detail oriented it is totally doable. My strategy was to take a lot of practice tests. As many as I could get my hands on. There is a certain way they test, a ki…[Read more]
