Thank for the update, appreciate it.

Hi, I just like to know and confirm if IRONCAD Compose2013 as a standalone product will import Sketchup .skp file. Right now it does on my end with IronCAD 2013 PU1 and TRANS installed. The product page and pdf file only indicates industry standard and CAD native files. I am planning to push to a prefab group and if the import feature with Sketchup on IRONCAD Compose does work, that will be better. Regards to all, Joseph

Hi I just tested my new video card, HIS ATI/AMD HD7770 iCooler which was a great upgrade from my now dissmal HD6670. I experienced a stretched vertical datum plane and also a model on OpenGL2 setting on Rendering/Advance Rendering setting. It only display this issue this setting, DirectX and OpenGL works fine. With IronCAD 2012, DirectX, OpenGL and OpenGL2 is just fine. I already re-installed the Catalyst 12.10 and it still persist. Regards, Joseph FYI: Filed as a bug

Updated hardware with HIS HD7770 iCooler, now it made a difference on a 1980 x 1080 display

Fyi: Just upgraded my CPU from an AMD FX6100 to a FX6300. Now runs cooler and performs a bit snappy. Better than before but still not a render hot rod. Regards, Joseph

Hi, I like to know your experiences running 2012 with consumer video cards. Currently I am using a Powercolor 6670 1GB DDR3 video card. Sometimes works fine but slow on refresh with displaying edges so I set options>rendering>optimization: hide small parts when FPS low/hide edge when rotate if FPS is low settings. Will be a minimum Nvidia 640GT DDR3 or AMD 7750 1 GB DDR5 do the trick. Will the same card with a higher bandwidth DDR5 show any difference or an nvidia GTX 650 1GB DDR5 / AMD HD7770 1 GB DDR5 be better. I appreciate posting feedback on this thread. fyi: for some reason since I installed 2013, my installed 2012 seems to display a bit better. Regards, Joseph

This image is the outcome of work here. I'll use it for my website. Again thanks to everyone. dehumidifier_F4A6_expisovc.tif

No worries, your contribution was great and a learning process. I reconstructed without the blends in the model and applied your technique. It produce cleaner cuts. I really appreciated your inputs.

That will be great, and I will really appreciate that. Post it at your convenience

indeed this help a lot and others who have viewed this, can't thank you enough. I hope the this video stays here for awhile to learn it over and over. can it be downloaded via other means so it can be loop on a windows media player or vlc if possible as my last request. again thanks thaks to the community as well and how it works together

Yes right on the dot. great and thanks. sorry to reply late have to drive kids to school. Thank you for time. how did you do it

Really do apologize for the inconvenience on your end. You've already helped me a lot. Thank you and I'll check my system on my end before I do another post.

got help from dleczynski and here is the file. thanks to all Scene3.ics

it was done with 2012. wondering if there is something in my settings or it got corrupted on up-load. please advise and thanks

hi kevin, i have re-posted the file and please advise if i did it right this time. thanks formB3b1brepshl.ics formB3b6brepshl.ics

thanks again and i do apologize for the disruption on your current task. i have attached the model and as you have shown how to split the front panel, the top half front panel will have a curve edge as it slopes from the top panel to the descending plane that joins the top portion of the front panel. this a great learning process that you have made videos of, and solving this one will sure help a lot of users to deal with this detail. as always, many thanks and no rush on this formB3b5Cbrepshl.ics

thank you for showing this process of splitting parts rather than what i usually use the split parts command that requires editing the default shape and alignment of the split planes. i just have one item to inquire about: the top from my design have a curving line that i do wish to have that parting line to follow. what i am thinking is split following the straight process and trim to create the desired curve parting/split line. i hope you don't mind me getting more ideas on how to do it.

this is quite related to my earlier post but I do need to accomplish this. i tried to do 2d sketch curves and 3d sketch curves to cut this out but didn't work out or just haven't discovered on how to do it right. any tip or tricks to do it will a great help. thanks joseph dehumidifier_enclosure.pdf

I just like to know if there is a reference for surfacing and complex shape modeling for ironcad similar to solidworks surfacing and complex shape modeling bible. i was using loft sections before but i want to learn more about the surfacing features or tools availalble with ic2012. i created a dehumidifier components at grabcad and i intend to create a more interesting skin for it. thank you joseph
