Ho Hum after more than 12 months...that's all a dash line?

Switch to Blender, and 2.8 soon. Its free, will always be free and is the fastest growing 3d community. I unfortunately use SketchUp for work and can’t drop it completely. But I wholeheartedly agree with all your points…

For convenience, here’s something I posted in the thread “20 Reasons to consider learning Blender” thread:

@jbacus

I think it is great to consider alternative tools to SketchUp for whatever work you do. I don’t really consider Blender a competing product to SketchUp any more than I think of 3DSMax or Maya in that way. Blender is designed to appeal to the same folks who like those big DCC applications. Of course, being free ( gratis as well as libre ) helps to open it to a wider community than Autodesk will sustain with the tools they sell.

I definitely have a soft spot in my heart for Blender and I always have.
