I learned from another vid, something I could apply here, and that is make copies of the lights and save as components! I think that would work.

Very interesting video, something I can relate to. Been using VectorWorks for a few years till I upgraded my computer about 4 years ago. I was designing renovations and extensions then doing the work myself. The VectorWorks prices also went up. Not a big fan of subscriptions being that the bill could run into hundreds of dollars each week with everything that I do But Im looking at SketchUp as I would like to design and build again, from furniture to small buildings Cheers and thank you

Hi, thank you for a very helpful video, I could easily sketch my bathroom. But how do I make the eraser not delete the tape measurement overlapping the same line? It's annoying having to re-measure it when I want to keep it after deleteing a line.

How do you change the orientation of North for your model?
@SketchUpSchool 4 ай бұрын
You can either rotate the geometry in your model relative to the Green axis pointing more or less north. Or you can use the Solar North extension to modify the North direction: extensions.sketchup.com/extension/393f5153-ba5f-4f5f-849f-46b32cf64bd4/solar-north

I'm curious who does the editing and how long does it take. These videos are so well crafted.
@SketchUpSchool 2 жыл бұрын
Wow - thanks for the kind words! We edit the videos ourselves and when you count the total number of hours spent scripting, shooting and editing each video (across a few team members), a good guess is that we spend about 50-100 hours creating each video over a course of 4-8 weeks, with the editing probably taking up about half the total number of hours.

Drawing the floor is not working as in your video. The rectangular I can draw, but then with the pushpull not a rectangular form is pulled, but the shape of the floor with the walls in it. How can this be prevented?

Hi - I'm using an older version of SketchUp Pro - does it have the "tags" feature? Thanks

In older versions of SketchUp, "Tags" used to be called "Layers". The feature works the same, it just had a different name before.

How do you recommend that we show clients before and after layouts? For example, do you create two separate files? what can you do to draw the basic overview once and then show by removing some walls to display the new open concept and kitchen layout? Separate files or the same file. Seeking guidance.
@SketchUpSchool 7 ай бұрын
There are pros and cons to either approach (separate file vs. same file). If you go with the separate file approach, one downside is that when you make a change in one of them you have to always think about whether that same change needs to be made in the other. However, the upside is that each file can sometimes feel more manageable than when you try to put both options into one file and try to manage them together. In general, we would usually recommend two files IF there aren't going to be a bunch of changes you have to keep making in both files as you go along. Otherwise, go with the same file approach.

The video doesn't have you draw the floor until after we ask you to Group the walls. Perhaps you drew the floor first when we were saying that you should only use the Tape Measure tool to measure the overall space?

As someone who is moving from the VFX world to the Landscape design world, it is insane to me how Sketchup can exists as an industry standard amongst professionals. Sketchup is a terribly outdated piece of software evolving at a snails pace. It is a real shame that the developers have not teamed up with innovators in the design tech world such as Maxon or Autodesk to provide the Garden/ Landscape design industry with a decent set of tools. Channels like this make it clear how even the simplest tasks can be a bizarrely involved process that other software could do at the touch of a button. Something needs to change...

Do you have a recommendation for a better program for landscape designers? I am also looking to enter the profession.
@Bleepurchin 2 жыл бұрын
Hi@@burgessbc.I am currently studying at Kew Gardens here in the UK. After 6 months study, I am still working out what is the best workflow. As a VFX artist I used Cinema 4D for many years and am keen to keep using that as my main design tool. Cinema 4D is far more intuitive and easier to learn than Sketchup. There is a vast online community available for users and I would recommend anyone new to 3D to try it instead of Sketchup. As far as detailed construction designing goes, I recommend Vectorworks, which is at least one decent, robust piece of software the Landscape design industry is using. Hope that helps :)

The problem is the price every other company whacks onto their software! Sketchup is the only decently-priced option :( Therefore im sure that is the reason this low-quality stuff remains the 'standard'
