  • Need to draw a construction detail or just part of your model directly to the document sheet? No need for SketchUp (unless you want to) as Eric shows you how to get a scaled drawing started from scratch right in LayOut.

    Thanks Eric! I've been spending as much time in Layout as inSketchup lately and Layout definitely needs a lot more love and attention. 3D models are great but we make our money when we turn those models into usable construction documents!

      For sure! The goal is to eventually get our designs built and for that we need more than just the model ;)

    Thanks Eric, I'm loving the recent Layout love in your videos and live streams. I'm learning loads and it's really helping me get more out of Layout.

    Ooh I didn’t know you could explode the contents of the Sketchup viewport into line work.
    Has that been a thing for a while? I’ve very recently switched to 2023 from 2018.
    I’ll be having a play with that later!
    Thanks Eric. Another good one.

    yes i use it a lot with blocks from autocad to layOut sometimes they dont come with the right scale and i use this metode to creat a large variety of scale with the same model and save them as skrapbook i was inspired by the scrapbook in layOut with all those car with deferent scale and i m very happy .. my fourniture a all in my scrapbook my most used hatches feels.....its just plug and play

    Thanks for that!
    I do often scaled plans / DWGS but this time I measured once printed out with the second method & instead of 1:100 it was 1:260
    Is there any more tips when importing images?

    Please, I need a way to make scrapbooks that work as components, I mean edit one instance and they are all updated. That would be great, thank you very much!

    • @SketchUp
      @SketchUp  Рік тому +1

      Great idea. That's not possible as of now. Instead try instead inserting a separate component as a SketchUp model and, if set to Vector mode, can be used as if it were a Scrapbook element (ie Scaled Drawing).

    Adding dimensions? (at scale) 11:48

    • @ericsargeant3254
      @ericsargeant3254 Рік тому

      Yes. The dimensions are scaled to the drawing so that if I added a dimension for height...it would read as 20" no matter what scale I changed the drawing to.
