| 2014-12-30 10:28:38 -0500 | answered a question | Surface Matching Apply Measure I have been manually drawing the windows, and there are only exterior windows. My test model was around 150 spaces, and the total model is 440. At first it was giving me an error right away, but now it shows "running measure" for several minutes (over 4 min). I haven't had any feedback during the process besides the first time around, but I don't recall the error that showed up. Thanks a lot David! |
| 2014-12-29 17:15:57 -0500 | asked a question | Surface Matching Apply Measure I have a few questions actually, and would really appreciate any help in regards to any of them. I have completed my model in sketchup (saved as osm file). I have added all the exterior windows, and now I am trying to do the surface intersecting and matching. Does it make a difference if you do the surface matching before or after adding windows? Also since the sketchup plugin that performs surface intersection/matching creates errors (many spaces turn white), I have downloaded the Surface Matching Measure in Open Studio (1.4.0), which worked fine for me when I tested it earlier on the first few floors. However now after completing the entire building, the apply measure is not working. When I ran it awhile ago it only took a matter of seconds, but now it either continues to run forever or gives me an error. I can't figure out what is going wrong now. |

I downloaded the measure file from the site, which is an open studio file. However I cannot open it, can you tell me the steps to use this measure tool on my model. |

| 2014-11-10 15:17:19 -0500 | asked a question | When exporting sketchup model to SDD model, sketchup crashes...What's happening? I am trying to convert my OSM to an SDD model to be opened in CBECC-Com. Sketchup keeps crashing (BUG SPLAT) during the conversion, but it seems to only happen after I intersect the entire model, and do surface matching. I am opening the OSM file in sketchup. Maybe I need to download the newer versions of both SketchUp and OpenStudio... I am using SketchUp 8 and OpenStudios 1.3.4. |
