Part “All the time face digicam” Forces Part into Flawed Angle – SketchUp

Hiya neighborhood,
I’m importing a dimension reference .png drawing of a pilot I created in Photoshop. It makes no distinction whether or not I import as picture or as texture. After I select “All the time face digicam”, the element is pressured into an arbitrary angle proper earlier than the ‘all the time face’ impact is utilized. So the element finally ends up all the time going through the digicam, positive, however at a bizarre angle. I’ve tried exploding first, not exploding, triple-clicking first, double-clicking, making use of drawing to a rectangle then grouping and making element…no luck. I examined with a easy black dot png drawing and identical factor occurs. What am I doing unsuitable?

Attaching .skp so you possibly can see…

Not a vital step however anyway… purge your mannequin so that you solely have one positioned occasion in modeling house. Be certain you do have that one positioned or all will probably be gone from the ‘In Mannequin’ element library

• In your element library change that element to not face the digicam
• In modeling house change the element’s axes so pink is alongside the bottom and inexperienced is operating perpendicular from the again of the feel. Blue will probably be pointing up.
  (now you could have its axes incorrectly)
• turm to ‘Parallel’ projection and Entrance view
• now in your ‘In Mannequin’ element library change the element’s property again to ‘All the time Face Digital camera’

You’re superior! That labored. So now I see it was an axes subject.
I needed to do some enjoying together with your directions a bit as a result of I used to be attempting to make a element with out having to blow up it (since exploding the picture would create an undesirable rectangular border), however it wouldn’t let me have each issues. Nevertheless, I seen you can also make the person frames of the rectangle invisible by choosing every phase of the field and hitting the attention icon for every phase within the entity field, so all good. Thanks once more!
