Exact drawing

Noodles

I'm new to Sketchup and I'm used to drawing with CAD (a long time ago). I'm trying to draw up a model of our house and I've taken measurements. But I can't work out how to draw a line of exact length. Can anyone tell me how to do this? I.e. a line 4050mm long.

Thanks

Hi Nick,

Start drawing the line in the desired direction
Depending on the template you are using, for instance

if that template is using millimetres as a unit, type 4050
if anything else, 4050mm

and hit Enter.

Thanks, that helped a lot! Have drawn up half of our house now.
