      Need a script that can export multiple views.
      Having problems defining the views (Have read the API). Is there any way to use the standard views in SketchUp?
      Would also like to change the face style of my model.

      Thanks for any assistance

        Hi htv, hi folks.

        Try this:

        1 - Orbit, pan and zoom to set a view that you like.

        2 - If needed, switch rendering mode like X-Ray or Back Edges or whatever. Add shadows or fog or whatever. Switch style if required or create a new one.

        3 - Use View menu --> Animation --> Add scene to create a scene to memorize all these settings. A scene is like taking a photo of you model.

        4 - Repeat steps 1 to 3 as often as you need to create all the required scenes.

        5 - Use View menu --> Animation --> Settingsto uncheck the box labeled Enable scene transitionsand set Scene delay to 0.

        6 - Use File menu --> Export --> Animation.

        7 - In the Animation export dialog window, click on the Option button.

        8 - Set the frame rate to 1 frame per second (use custom choice to allow a value lower than 5).

        9 - Exit back to the Animation export dialog window and make sure that the file format is set at JPEG images.

        10 - Navigate to the folder of your choice, set the file name and then press the Export button.

        Each scene will be exported with the file name that you specified followed by 0001 to nnnn where nnnn is the number of scenes of your model that you included in the animation.

        Just ideas.
