Embedding SketchUp models in HTML pages

RPS 3D PDF files can be embedded into HTML pages to let you include 3D interactive versions of your SketchUp models on youw web pages. You can see a sample here: Embedded 3D PDF Sample

(This is what the sample looks like, but you

need to use the link above to see it in action) 

 


RPS 3D PDF also has an option to create a HTML file with the PDF already embedded into it. This makes it easy to see what code you need to add to your own pages to embed the 3D PDF.


See: Embedding 3D PDF files for more information.

New iPad App - pFoto Shopper

We, together with one of our partners, Archon Apps, have just released our first iPad App - pFoto Shopper.

 

Although this has nothing to do with SketchUp or other Render Plus products, it is pretty exciting to get an iPad/iPhone app completed and approved by Apple!

How to make Transparent Trees

 

A recent thread on the Render Plus Forum investigated how to make transparent trees for a rendering.

 See: How to make transparent trees.

There were two simple methods.

1. Render the trees and place them in front of the rendering as a Foreground Image.

2. Freeze the tree images in SketchUp and make the images transparent.

This second method was used in the rendering above - which allows placement of solid objects (bench and fence) in front of the trees.
