Customizing LayOut Scrapbooks - Skill Builder

[@dancanale1828]

Great video. You made it simple to learn and understand. Thank you.

Excellent presentation, Aaron. One of the things I've found helpful is to position the scrapbook entities on the page so they take up as little space as possible. Then I set a custom paper size that is just large enough to contain the elements. The scrapbook pages will be reduced to fit the width of the Scrapbook panel so the narrower the paper the larger the entities will appear in the panel.

Thanks Aaron. I have had Layout for years but just started using it recently. It's a great program and I have just scratched the surface. Happy New Year to all Sketchupers!

This is an amazing work flow. I was an architecture student who worked in an interior design studio and tried to convince them to use SketchUp instead of AutoCAD, but they didn't think it was versatile. Bummer, because this workflow would have been

thank you for this great video, Could I use scrapbooks as "Blocks" in Autocad?

[@janezicdesign1783]

This was very useful, thank you! Is there any way to map scene names, scales, or other information to the text blocks in scrapbooks? Like in Vectorworks with drawing labels taking on the attributes of the viewport they are assigned to, to make labeling drawings in layout a bit faster with less work labeling each scale, drawing title, etc.?

Thanks for the video, Aaron. How you you approach making building details for a scrapbook? I use a lot of foundation and framing details for residential plans. Would you make the detail work in Sketchup first and import to Layout? Or make all the details in Layout?

Besides the free SU for the web, is there a free desktop version? If so where to download it please?

[@stuartbillings2589]

Great video, as usual Aaron. One question, is there a (practicable) limit to the number of pages in a scrapbook? And can you have different scrapbooks for different types of work (i.e. geometry) and load them as needed?

[@daver425]

I think the practical limit in pages comes in the way you would want to sort the entities. It might be easier to manage if you have have more scrapbooks each with fewer pages. That way you have more top level entries in the list with not so many second level entries. You can make as many scrapbooks as you like. They don't "load" until you select one in the list. And they don't really load anyway in that they don't become part of the file. Scrapbooks in LayOut are the equivalent of local component collections in SketchUp.
