Hi Daniel, I have been following your Sandbox sessions trough the recordings. It’s fascinating to see how far you are able go with Sketchup regarding site planning and terrain surfaces like this. This is a great inspiration regarding conceptual work with terrain models. I have some experience with Civil 3D and though its very accurate, it’s quite difficult to master and use as freely and conceptual as you show us here.
I have some questions that I hope you will be able to answer. First regarding some of the recordings, eg. the recordings for PART 3 and also the SKETCHUP BASICS, PART 3, the video is very jagged and the screen images are bouncing back and forth in time. The sound is OK, but sometimes is difficult to follow what you are doing due to thees bouncing images. The other recordings seems fine so I don’t think it’s anything to do with my connection speed or something like that. Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
In order to use the smoove-tool there is sometimes needed to add detail to a surface in order to make work as intended. Is there a way to use the grid-tool to add a more accurate detail to an already graded surface? Eg. a 2×2 grid?
And a small question at the end. Is there a command that hides all the edges in some specific objects, there was a recording where you quickly turned them off/hided the edges, but I was not able to catch how you did it. Maybe you have set up a shortcut?
Thanks again for all the good tips from your sessions and for placing all the useful links to ruby-scripts. I will certainly start using them.
regards
Knut
