Learning Sketchup

[This followup was posted to rec.woodworking and a copy was sent to the cited author.]

I've just started learning how to use SketchUp and have come up with a question. On the 3D view the program displays these endpoint or intersection marks on the end of lines. Is there a way to hide those?

That is providing I understand your question.

I had already tried the suggested command. It does not seem to remove the endpoint markers. The marks that I refer to are shown as a dark dot on the ends of lines. At the intersection of lines or faces these show up as more of a cross mark.

I wanted to take a screen snapshot of the 3D view but would like it to be without these markers.

Still trying visualize the problem ... do you have dimensions in your 3D view?

Can you take a screenshot (alt/prntscreen) and post it to ABPW?

Posted some pictures of the 3D view of the drawing here:

Ahhh .... understand now:

It is a styles setting. Go to your Window|Style|Edit tab and under edges settings (the first, wireframe icon) uncheck the endpoint box.

After poking through nearly every menu and option in SketchUp I finally found the key to turning off the end point markers. From the menu bar select Window / Styles. On the Styles Dialog select the "Edit" tab the then toggle off the Endpoints checkbox. I also found it useful to also toggle off the "Profiles" option as well so that all the lines in my 3D view were the same width.

You're welcome ... looks like my 1:28 PM post took a while to get to your end of the internet. LOL
