Hi . I recently downloaded a table and chair from Warehouse, and they presented in a different style from my current drawing (in this case, without edges and soft). I thought that we cannot have different styles inside the same file of specific objects. How this happens ? Can I do againg with other objects inside the same file ? ( example curtains without edges ) .
Thanks the community.
You can only use a single style at any one time in SketchUp. What’s different about the “styles” between the different objects from the 3D Warehouse?
Can you share the model file so we can see what you are working with.
Instead of lines being hidden as a matter of style, the objects probably have manually hidden (or smoothed) edges. You can go into the object, find the hidden lines, and un-hide them. If you want that look on your own stuff, you can do the opposite: edit your own creations by going in and hiding edges as you see fit. It’s totally manual — you can choose to hide some and not others.
Yes, see here . I am using the standard style ( I did not finish modeling yet) and both elements are in different styles - left withou edges and soft , the right - the traditional way. They are both inside the same file… how is it possible ? Do you think the person who create the table “hide” all the oulines ? the fabric on the chair has millions on edge lines !! Hide one by one ?
They aren’t really different styles. It is as @RTCool suggested. The edges on the table and chair have been hidden by the author. You can open each one for editing and then choose to unhide the geometry. You may or may not need to soften edges at the same time.
ok . I got it.
Is there a command called “unhide geometry” so I can see them ( the lines ) again ?
Tks guys.
Triple click on the object with Select until you get the edges and faces selected. Then right click on it and choose Unhide.
thanks Dave …
