        My theory... ๐Ÿค“
        The iPad is linked to the desktop computer with a USB cable [as is indicated].
        Sketchup is 'running' on that machine's OS, and not the iPad's.
        Something allows the SKP to be viewed and controlled by the iPad 'remotely'...
        As far as I know only iPad "viewing of SKP files" works, with a specialist app; that's because Sketchup itself can't run ON the iPad OS.
        So... what is the 'something' that is allowing the remote connection/control between the two systems ?

              Well, you could do it via something like LogMeIn. I've tried it, but proper modelling is so laborious, it isn't worth bothering with. Ideally you need an app that uses multi-touch to allow for proper navigation.

                    As someone once said Mike....

                    If a picture is a thousand words then what's a video worth?
