Title: Inserting .skp File
Post by: garystan on August 25, 2010, 07:08:07 PM

        With Google SketchUp,  I  made a stone fireplace.    Came out okay.
        After getting it into the catalog,  I inserted it into one of the rooms in one of my projects, just to
        see how it'd look.
           After that, I decided to delete it from the project.    I didn't need it in this projuect.   Just wanted
        to se it rendered in a setting.
           After it was deleted,  I noticed the  axes arrows (used by SketchUp) still remaining.   I tried to delete
       it,  but no good.  It's not much of a nusance, as far as the 2D plan view goes.   In the 3D view, it doesn't
       show up at all.     One thing I did notice.    As I pan out the view (in 2D view) ,  the axes arrows get larger.
       But, as I zoom in,   the axes arrows grow smaller.
           Could I be something with the  .skp file itself ?

Hi garystan!
I think one of the Selection for the objects in View Filter is turned off  and there is some old stuff left like a invisible wall, to make it sure shall we do a quick check. But it can also be that you are in the wrong location then you try to delete the element.

Go to [View Filter] select [Notation tab] click on Display Non go there after to [Elements on the Terrain tab] and do the same.

This will narrow the problem to [Elements on Location tab]
Now go back to the project, if the arrow is gone the problem is in [Notation tab] or [Elements on the Terrain tab], if not
go back to [View Filter] select [Elements on Location tab] Click on [Select All] this makes all building elements on all locations selectable.

Go back to project delete the arrows, if this will not work the is a problem in the catalog.

How to fix the catalog that will take after you try this above.

  Robert W.  :

                           Problem solved.........................
                           Apparently, maybe...........by the .skp file............the  coordinate icon got turned on.
                           It's a  setting under  WORKSPACE.
