These are good improvements, but there are still problems with anti-aliasing and back face color artifacts on the Mac version of LayOut. Also, problems with embedded color profiles, so when exported as PDF and opened in Adobe Illustrator raster part of the drawing is blank.
This is a cool feature, but I think this could be pushed a little further if you could have a check box on the SkechUp Model window to NOT include a specific viewport in the override rendering setting.
If you can speed up printing to pdf that would be the big one. It is the slowest step in updating documents. For construction drawings (where the texture quality will not be noticed as much) I explode all viewports before printing to breeze through the print process. I undo afterward. I need to do a special output so there are often 2-3 steps I have to sit and watch the computer for when output otherwise. I thought document set was always something like this so, I'm not sure what the 2023 change gives.
It has really never bothered me that much. Since I don’t move in 3D space in LayOut (I almost always user saved scenes from SketchUp), I don’t miss the ability to move the camera with my space mouse.
I am just working on a very large model and have already experimented with this feature. This is a huge improvement🎉
This video came in at just the perfect time. I was struggling with my exports from Layout due to the override being on by default!
I would like to know if there is a way to put timestamps on layout outputs?
Thank you for finally doing this in LayOut. Especially the override!!
Why is there no "orbit" function in layout? How do I position the model properly?

That’s HUGE! I’ve been totally frustrated with the output quality….and now I know 😮🎉 Thanks for the examples 👍🏽
Happy to help!
Nice presentation
Hey Aaron, since you use the spacemouse in SketchUp, don't you find it akward that it is not possible in Layout? Perhaps in a future release? :)

Still, zooming in and out with the spacemouse in Layout would be great... especially when working with large sheets@@aarondietzen2995
