A point to be made about 2-point perspective: This view makes all vertical lines (blue axis) parallel, while keeping the vanishing point perspective on the other two axes. This mimics a procedure I like to use when editing photos of interior rooms (e.g., for home listings for sale). Otherwise vertical lines near the left or right edge of the picture make it seem like the camera was tilted.
Perspective makes it easy to connect edges that are inside an object. Let’s say you had four walls of a box, and you wanted to draw a floor. Top view allows you to see all the bottom corners at one time so you can connect them with a rectangle. Parallel projection is great for seeing a clean top view of a floor plan. It can catch mistakes when things don’t quite line up.
Another thing worth noting is that using projected view combined with top, front etc. views allows easier accurate selection of edges.

Always wondered about the field of view, but never messed with it. Now, when things look wonky, I have a way to correct it! Awesome video!
I like parallel projection when making parts. It helps me make sure alignment is what I am wanting. Thank you for the videos.
A great way to ensure what your sketching up is // to the axes is to color the edges in accordance to the axes (style editor)
Thanks Aaron. Always wondered what the 2 point perspective option was about.

very useful content. Thank you very much
Thanks Aaron, I ALWAYS use the perspective in SU (except for selection convenience) and keep the // view to Layout which is soooooooo cool
I love your t-shirts Erin, where do you buy them?
I primally only use parallel projection to properly place objects in an exact X, Y or Z position when snapping or measuring is inconvenient.
I'm with you. The main reason I use it, apart from setting the viewpoint for Layout, is to check the alignment accuracy between objects.
thanks man ur great!
Nice video, thanks :)
Thank’s for this.
Good work keep posting learning sketchup from kenia representative keep safe
Thank you!

One of the main and only flaws with sketchup and you choose to brag about it lol..
