      Hi,

      This is probably quite easy but I dont know how to set the preferences for font, units, dimensions etc for every drawing that I do .

      I know how to set them for individual drawings but it's getting quite tiresome having to change them every time!

      Best Wishes

      Chris 😄

          you have to make a template of the file
          that is done by saving it as a Template in C:\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 6\Resources\en-US\Templates. (save as unnamed template or whatever)
          once saved there you close the file.
          open again the program and then search for :
          click it and from now on your program will start with all your preferences to draw without making them all the time.

              Okay, I am 6 pages deep into this project in LayOut, and the font (reset) issue is frustrating me, now do I save this as a template too?
              And how do I deal with different fonts, line weights, fill types as they emerge during the creation of the drawings process, save all of that as a template too?
              aloha
