Dive in with us as we unpack all the nitty gritty behind dimensioning. In this video we cover using object snap and grid snap, setting dimension styles, editing dimensions, and a whole lot more.

In my own personal use of dimensions in Layout, I make it a habit of putting dimensions in their own Layout layer. This makes it trivial to hide/show them with a simple click on the Dimensions layer visibility eyeball. It also makes it super easy to select all dimensions and make global edits to their formatting if needed.

Thanks for your excellent work. I know skp is used in a lot of small metal workshops so what about taking a look at: 1. sheet metal. How to fold and unfold - maybe introducing k-factors and bend allowance. 2. Metal Tube work: Best practice of modeling and making 2D documentation and cutlist.

Another great video, Aaron! I learned several helpful tips, especially for creating chain dimensions and editing existing dimensions. (I think the "four arrow move dimension" action should be an option-key feature only. I hardly ever want to move a dimension ... and disconnect it from my 3D model data.) I'll add my vote for a separate diameter and radius dimensioning video, with these segments: - Best workarounds for creating diameter and radius dimensions in SketchUp LayOut that adhere to standard drafting practices - Explanation of why SketchUp LayOut still does not have native diameter and radius dimensioning capabilities As many have pointed out in various venues, SketchUp has lots of non-architectural users, like woodworkers (me), mechanical and industrial designers, etc., who need to dimension diameters and radii on a regular basis. Heck, I bet even architects, landscape designers, civil engineers, etc., need to dimension diameters and radii sometimes, too! ;-)

Absolutely amazing with your short video clips. I have big problems getting rotated image in Sketchup. So that I get a horizontal line on a model that is drawn with several angles on the floor surface. Or the whole house is plased right north south. But maybe 13.5 degrees is twisted. How do i get the image oriented correctly. It is so important to prepare the image in Sketchup first. Thanks for al tips

Hi Aron! Nice tips! Is there a faster way to do arrow measurement with the same metod that you are using when double clicking for adding dimensions between two points, but instead locking the start point too a line/point, and then double click too get the arrow measurement. /Robin

Many thanks Aaron, Awesome as always May I ask some more details? - how do you dimension diameter ? Since it s a nice SketchUp circle? - how do you auto text the name of the SketchUp model ? It s available in the right toolbar but not inside the autotext command... This would help a LOT ^^

I learned to draft architectural drawings before CAD existed. We were taught to never dimension anything smaller than 1/4". Cabinetry, maybe. Framers will assume you are crazy and/or inexperienced. I like to draw with precision but to avoid these "sixteenths" showing up in working drawings should I set my precision to 1/4"?

Model space and paper space are terms from that other software. In SketchUp you can edit the model. In LayOut you edit a 2D representation of the 3D model.
