Thanks Tim I have now managed to view the video, the trouble is I need a lot more help in using Layout. Are there any books or videos that would help

I would like to see the video but it does not appear on this computer do I need to do anything else

Ive had another go at this and noticed that the textures I am trying to edit are the problem The ones I cant edit are those I created using the SU materials editor, the ones I can edit are downloads from web sites.

This seems a useful facility so I tried it on somme existing projects. The first wont let me edit the texture because the "EDit Texture" menu item is unavailable I must be doing something wrong but Im puzzled. I decided to try another project and it works as you describe

Ted Gibbs

This is very useful plugin, but have you tried it with metric parameters. When I try *1 to produce through tenons I get a tenon 1mm. Am I doing something wrong. It seems ok in inches mode

Dave
How did you input this table to SK. Has there been a Blog that would help. TG

Dave
Ive tried the link to bezier.rb but there is no down load mechanism, can you help? please. TG

my previous query is now cleared up I fixed it by scaling up

I want to produce items such as Knobs and pulls for cabinet work, when the item has curved top to the profile I always get a hole through the centre. what am I doing wrong.

Although Ive been using SU for about 18 months I have never used layers so I welcome this tutorial. When you put dimensions on a layer do you mean without any geometry. do you make dimensions into components Will you be going through the basic process of putting items into layers Ihave managed to do it but do not find it a very logical process
Ted Gibbs

In SU V7 There is a File menu item , Generate Report which produces a component list like a cutlist but with other info I dont understand and I cant find help elsewhere

After my question on Layout I found the post by Tim so that answered it for me plus a lot of other useful to go through

PS Why am called teamman?

I have been trying to use Layout for the first time, I wanted to get multiple pages with a scene per page.I find this can be done by selecting each scene, saving the file before transfer to Layout and then doing the same for all scenes. The process would be quite tedious for a large project so is there a better way
