3d model alterations?

[Arlene]

Does anyone know if it is possible to remove portions of a 3d model downloaded from the warehouse to sketchup before exporting it to Sweet Home 3d. I want the blackberry fruit without the vine
Thanks

Of course that is possible.
- Install Sketchup
- Open the model
- Edit the model any way you want
- Export it as Collada/DAE model that SH3D can use.

I have sketchup but I have tried everything to try to figure out how to delete or erase part of a model. I have figured out how to tilt and angle but not get rid of sections.
Could you be a bit more specific?
Thanks

Pressing Delete keys or cutting didn't produce any effect?
Nothing in Sketchup help itself?

It will depend on the model how best to approach deletion. You could try to explode a group/component (similar to ungroup in SH3D).
