          Right the material in the browser and choose edit material.

          Download the free D'oh Book for SketchUp 📖

            If I get you right PaOlo you want to know how to create a texture for sketchup like the example. In Photoshop or similar create your image on a new layer and make a transparent background. Then save as a png file (this will preserve the transparancy). Import that into Sketchup and there you have it.

              It depends on if you want to have a texture or a object (like a standalone face as a fence).
              For making materials the how-to's above are correct.

              If you want to have a "standalone-object" like fence, people, tree whats-of-ever you'd have to do it like this:

              • import image with transparent parts (png file)
              • explode image
              • trace the object and delete transparent parts to get correct shadows
              • to automate that you could use TIG's ImageTrimmer plugin (search the forums) which does that job for you

              still sketchin'
