Hello all the participants this forum. My name is Michele (aka Michael) and I'm a 44 years old italian architect from Mestre, a town near Venice.
I've been using Graphisoft ArchiCAD since 1986, while I was attending the university of Venice. Aside being a freelance architect I teach architectural drawing with ArchiCAD to colleagues and students. In the spare time I play synthesizers and compose music.About Sketchup, I was always fascinated by this piece of software and now, after several years of curiosity, I finally decided to delve into this program.
I'm an absolute beginner and I've just realized a thing: the operating criteria are way different from ArchiCAD ones... And it's quite an effort to learn all those new icons...
Anyway i hope to finnd some help in this forum.Best regards

Hi Michele,
nice to have you here. I am a 63 years old Mechanical Engineer. I found SketchUp about 3 years ago. Most i have learned from the many video tutorials on the internet and from the members of this forum.
I wish you every success with Sketchup. It is the most intuitive 3D program I've met. Especially the plugins of gifted programming, here in the forum to expand Sketchup to unimagined possibilities. At first maybe you should have a look here at the tutorial Threads:
