      Hi out there in Scetchup land.
      I am absolutely new to Scetchup, but it looks wery promising and userfriendly.
      I have one question that is important to me, and will try to explain:
      I am making some ( relatively ) short slideshows. My next show is about the history of an old stone house ( 13th century ) and only some traces of it is left, so the idea is to try to "recreate" it externaly and internaly with Scetchup . After this is done I want to take the "visitor" inside with me. To do so, I have to "transfer" the Scetchup dravings into ( preferably) JPEG images and import them into my slideshow. So the question is: Is it possible to "convert" the drawings into "ordinary" pictures like for example JPEG ?

      Best regards

        It's simple, go to File/Export/2d Graphic, and choose JPEG Image

          It's dead easy to do this. Go to File>Export>2D... Also note there's an Options button. Click on it and you can choose the export size.

          Victor is quicker on the draw. (Ha! Pun. 😆 )

            There is most likely a tutorial or three on this very subject, either in YouTube, or some other source.

            I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.
