My new mantra is Scenes and Layers, Scenes and Layers
ooommm. The spouse thinks I have gone over the hill
but not so.


LOL ... the program is like a deep, placid lake ... deceptively shallow
looking, but with a depth that defies all those preconceived notions
when you jump in with both feet.

One of the most productive things I've done with the app is to master
Scenes, Layers, and Hide ... can be powerful tools for both design and
presentation when used in combination.

On that same note: Joe Zeh at Swamp Road Wood Works reworked a handy
layers.rb with added functionality and tool bar icons that makes adding
visible and hidden layers much easier to use without risking having to
update all project scenes.

You should find it for download in his Sketchup section under his "my
favorite ruby scripts" at www.srww.com
