Thank you Paul for that link. It is really worth reading.

I don’t mean to be negative, but I’ve been after Topos for maybe 3 years now to start an on-line version of their magazine. Seems kind of in the spirit of the content don’t you think? I don’t take paper anymore – magazines or newspapers – and yes I pay for the ones that provide good content and present themselves well. How about an iPad App Topos?…[Read more]

Great. Glad to help. 🙂

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

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.

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]

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]

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

Can I get some feedback on my current resume? I’m applying to graduate programs for next fall and can you use all the advice I can take on tweaking it. Thanks!!Brittany Resume Fall 2010.pdf

Thanks Daniel!

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

Christopher- The thing that stood out the most is your resume. Move your education down towards the bottom- below everything other than maybe affiliations. With it on top, above professional experience, you are making it look like it is more important than your actual work.

Hi Chad – What got me interested in Inclusive design? You’re right, it was my work with therapeutic gardens, especially gardens in the healthcare setting. But then branching out from that, thinking about taking the design principles used for therapeutic gardens in places of healing and broadening to other places where people play and learn. Tara…[Read more]

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]

Welcome Naomi. What got you interested in Inclusive design? I see from your profile that you are heavily interested in theraputic gardens, which certainly overlaps into inclusive design.

Mark, I wouldn’t hesitate to go back to your old employer to ask for more samples. That employer could be very understanding of the circumstances “out there” and want to help you. – Who knows, maybe he will have just gotten a big job and will need to hire you back!
Good luck

hi guys from usa.. joined this group too!… would enjoy working with modern designs and developments in asia.

How did I miss this group until now?! Thanks for setting it up, Chad. Best, Naomi

Daniel, I just got your book today, briefly looking through it I’m excited to work my way through it. I was surprised to see that the model that you used in the Sandbox Webinar was not in there. I’m assuming and hopefully there is another section in the book that covers the principles that you did in that webinar because I was not able to attend…[Read more]
