      Hello everyone,
      I have been looking for a quicker way to draw up floor plans for SketchUp for some time. I have just discovered the 2D Architectural toolset in ViaCAD. It allows me to easily drop in window and door symbols and can optionally create a multi section wall instantly. After exporting this floor plan as a dwg/dxf, I am then ready to get to work in SU.
      (By the way, if you fancy trying this, you will need to select your drawing in ViaCAD and then Edit >Change Object Type >Polygons before exporting the DWG from ViaCAD, or it won't import correctly).
      Is anyone else using ViaCAD for this? I just wanted to share this, as it seems a good partner for SU and it's letting me get to work in SU quicker. Cheers.
