Tip! - Use 'Make Component' to save space and reduce computer load when working with multiple copies. Make advanced geometric constructions with multiple selections, multiple copies and the offset. move or copy (multiple) selected objects.
copies red green blue (offset from current position
Very handy for objects with curved surfaces like pipes, elbows. Rotate Object(s)ĭegrees around red, green or blue axis! (select object(s) first). Tips! Rename the object to its final name before making it a component (in outliner or with right click and entity info). You should transfer a group to a component sharing the same definition when there is more than one instance of the same object. Note that all objects from the Engineering Toolbox are inserted as individual groups. Make! - makes a component of the selected object. Iso! - top! - front! - right! - left! - back! - bottom! Make Component EditĬhange color! - of the selected object(s) - may be slow for some more complicated objects (save your model first!) View Install the extension as described in the right column - restart Sketchup and open this tool from the Sketchup Plugins menu. NOTE!! - the 'insert!' and the Tools features only works when the engineeringtoolbox exension is opened from within SketchUp.
