Hi everyone! What would you like to do with our shed model next? Let me know in the comments below! :)

[@tshuper]

Great series Justin! I'm watching your series to learn how to create a scale model of my house and property. The idea is to model what exists today, and then get creative inside and out. Would love to see this shed modeled into a landscape with some rocks, shrubs, trees, and uneven ground to simulate a real-world environment. Then maybe move on to rendering it?

[@zmnali78]

Is it right to say that once you confirm a scene in SketchUp for layout, and it's all set in layout, then you would not want to amend that scene in SketchUp, right?

[@ivanpetrov2000]

Thanks! All the videos from you are the BEST ever seen by me about sketchup and other sofware.

[@trentpattison5421]

Far and away the best tutorials mate - you are my go to - thank you!

[@stephanholland6181]

Excellent! Great organization - the basic steps in the right order and the right information for a quick start. I wish I'd seen this when I started using layout.

[@keith4154]

Another excellent tutorial. I would love to see you develop this model into a full set of documentation to a DA level. I bought the 2021 version and I am very happy with it. My skill level is at a stage now I need to look at more in depth training programs. I would like to eventually use Sketch up pro as my primary documentation and design tool.

Love it, so helpful for a beginner user

How to speed up my layout? Layout is my go to presentation creation software. But the notation and dimensions is just perfect. But its took a long time to get the scale right, and if i insert a medium size images, it immediately runs so laggy

[@Jack_Boon]

scale everything in raster mode first, working in raster mode is always the way to go so its less laggy. When it comes to a point where you need more clarity when working, seperate the higher poly objects like furniture into a seperate scene, then switch the existing scene of lineworks into vector/hybrid. So it will look like this, two scenes stacked on each other: Raster Scene (Furniture/highpoly objects only) Vector/Hybrid Scene (Wall/Slab/Floor/FixedCabinets/Doors) The main issue of lag is caused by High poly objects/ Furniture trying to create all the large number of lines into vector mode, causing the lag. Easy solution is to not use vector mode for these group.

Amazing!

[@everestinterior4669]

watching from Nepal .The sketchUp Essentials video creat idea .

[@faresjawad3096]

Great and very informative video justin I have a question , how to dimension a curve inside layout ?

[@shashankda1930]

Thank you

[@pulsside9361]

the best program ever, whe you now how to work with it ;-)

[@paulwolfer7869]

What's the advantage of doing dimensions in layout rather than doing dimensions in the model on it's own layer?

[@mustafamohsin6439]

Thank sir. Watching from Bangladesh. could please mention in comment. how much graphics and Ram need required for smoothly using Sketchup Software ? You answer will be helpful for me.

[@bethhodgson8772]

Help I can not get my layout to scale properly and then i can not get the plan to sit in the centre of the page?

[@Lewis_toole]

Elevations 👌🏻

[@La_bottega_del.3D]

Hi, I should design individual safety devices for a company, in particular a construction site helmet, and then turn it into STL. could you help me, thank you from beautiful ITALY.

[@aldrinmalicay1674]

Why does a 3D model go first before getting into the layout?? opposite to the traditional ways. Floor plan before 3D

[@imansumayyahyasmin7820]

Why not

[@shereennasis1210]

why do you keep on repeating the info before speaking another step in the process?

[@Thesketchupessentials]

I'm not sure what specifically you're referring to, but I'm just trying to teach the material the best I know how
