.DAE/KMZ files in Global Mapper not saving properly
Hi,
I'm working on saving 3D buildings I made in Sketchup in Global Mapper and am encountering an issue... This is the closest I have gotten to success:
Export KMZ from Sketchup. Load KMZ in to Global Mapper (buildings come in as a .DAE). I check the "Ignore units" box, and everything loads beautifully.
However, if I save, close, and re-open Global Mapper, the .DAE file shows up in the wrong location and scale-- either too large or too small. At this point, if I delete the .DAE and bring it back in, it only loads properly if I uncheck the "Ignore units" box.
Thanks so much for any help!

My end goal is to export a KML from Global Mapper that displays the 3D buildings... as of now when I try this, the .dae file of buildings simply doesn't show up when viewing the KML in Google Earth.
