Hi Everyone, When i download a model from the 3d warehouse it loads directly into my empty sketchup model - which is great 🙂 . But if there is a jpeg or another model already there, the model i am trying to download from the 3d warehouse does not load. This is quiet annoying as I am totally perplexed? Hope you can help me! Thanks in advance John ---

How about sharing an example file with a JPG or another “model” in it and a link to a 3D Warehouse component that does what you describe? I can think of several reasons why you might get what you describe but it would be better not to guess. ---

I’ll guess it is conflicting scale. ---

That’s one of the causes I was thinking of, too. ---

Thanks for the response guys. I tried to upload a file here but it wouldn’t allow me, it said the file was too large, even though there is nothing on the file apart from a jpeg house plan? I scaled the houseplan, then tried to download the model from 3d warehouse, no dice. I think you are correct about the scale. If so, what are my options? Thanks ---

Could you upload it to the 3D Warehouse and provide a link? ---

Give us the name of the file you typed when you uploaded it. Also, see your PMs. ---

So it was a case of incorrect scaling of the image. Resizing it to the appropriate size took care of it. ---
