Edges showing up white

Hello, I recently upgraded to Sketchup 2015 and the newest RP3DPDF.

When I create a 3DPDF, the edges appear as white lines, not dark edges.  In the OPTIONS, I have ALL EDGES selected and have tried different widths.

Any suggestions of what I should change?

  • Much better! Please also check the way for 3JS output type, it still without edges.

  • Send me the model and I'll see if I can duplicate the problem here. Just send it to:

    rich.hart@renderplus.com

    or upload it to us:

  • hi Rich - I now am using O102.  If I use a simple extruded rectangle model, everything works fine, including edge thicknesses of less the 1.0   But, I'm working with a large model and if I leave Edge Lines at none, the PDF works fine, complete with the navigation toolbar at the top (snapshot attached).  If I change the Edge Lines to "ALL', with any thickness, the PDF is created but the navigation toolbar disappears and navigating with the mouse is not possible.

  • I posted a new version, OI02, which uses edge line thickness properly again. You can now set it to be less than 1.0, or a number like 1.3 again.

    You can download it from our downloads page,

    or get it directly from this link:

  • I will have to make you a new version to fix this.

    The edge line size logic is currently rounding down to an integer, so 0.9 becomes 0.

    Hi Rich - I'm still struggling with my line widths.  In a simple model, if I set the Edge Lines to anything under 1.0, they do not show up in the PDF.  Above 1.0 and they show up fine.  This is ok but some of my models are big and detailed and the heavy lines are too much.  I am on OH3p 6.0 and Sketchup 2015

  • Rich, I don't even know what RPC is... Or Archvision.  I tried a simple model with only an extruded rectangle and got the same error.

    Thanks for your help with this

  • Oops. I'll fix that and repost it.

    Were there RPC objects in your model?

  • Hi Rich - I installed the update and now get this message when I try to make a PDF.

    I received  this Error message while running RPS 3D PDF Version: OH28p 6.0
