    Thank you! I just wanted a clear tutorial on how to make a top down plan for my reno. Will check back here as I advance in my drawings. Hopefully you'll have vids on how we then move from top down floor plan to 3d viewing of our designs.

    I am working on a floor plan of my apartment . I have precise measurements of each room and each wall. However when I insert internal walls the room sizes get affected . stupid question: once I insert internal walls what is the best way to adjust the room size to the original official sizes?

    • @CWebbTutorials
      @CWebbTutorials  4 місяці тому

      I’m sorry I don’t think I understand what you’re asking. If you are referring to the internal lines that depict your wall you could simply draw those first so that they are the correct measurement.

      Click once to start the rectangle, type the dimensions. If you click twice you’ll close the rectangle. Hope this helps.

      Do you mean adding dimensions and text? If so, this can be done with Sketchup Pro and a tool called Layout. Here's the floor plan video for the Pro version with Layout: ua-cam.com/video/hZTPutUiLis/v-deo.html

      Hey! I was having the same problem with the free version and it turned out to be an easy user error 🎉 when creating a line or rectangle, for example, click a starting point and type in your measurement - do not click in the box or anything, only press the number keys, and press enter. I haven’t found a way to change the dimensions after something has been created yet though. Hope this helps and best of luck.

      Hi there, you only want to scroll in and out when I’m top down view. Where you place your cursor will determine which direction you’re scrolling towards. Don’t use orbit or pan or it will change the view. Does this make sense?
