Hi everyone - hope you're doing well - let me know if you have any questions on this video in the notes below! :)

@johneggers1675 3 жыл бұрын

Great series - super helpful. Question: How do you create "inset" or scalable "close up" views of detail you've drawn in a house plan? For example, I would typically include close up views of header/post connection hardware on the same page as the framing floor plan or cross section. Another example using a site plan, I might want to have the 1/8" scale big view as well as a 1/2" scale close up of a site plan detail such as a transformer location. The goal is not to re-draw the detail but to simply take what is already drawn, zoom in on it, create a view/window and add it to a page in layout. (and set the printed scale appropriately for the detail separate from the other images on the layout page). I hope what I'm asking makes sense. Thanks.

thanks!i have found myself using layout more than revit for smaller clients. It becomes a hastle when you have to produce renderings. So it better to stick with sketchup all the way and still be able to provide some decent plans or sections

Great videos man! When doing a section cut how do you prevent it from cutting a staircase in half? I've tried hiding the the staircase layer/tag and also locking it. Once its out of frame and I make the cut and add the staircase back into view but its cut in half. This is making it so I cant see the full staircase in LayOut. Thanks!!

I noticed you still have the menus where you have to scroll up and down to get to the different menus. I find that really frustrating and for some time now you can change those to tabbed views instead like a browser. I find it a much better experience and thought it might make a good tutorial on how to do it.

Do the dimensions added in sketchup import to layout and are they editable as if added in layout?

They'd show up, but generally I recommend adding dimensions in Layout as those are more customizable. The ones from SketchUp are pretty limited
