How to get views of plans, sections, elevations aligned?
-
Hey guys,
I am sure this has been asked before but I was unable to find an answer.
What is the fastest way to have the inserted drawings align to each other so walls/ floors or plans and elevations are exactly aligned?Cheers!

The fastest? I suppose you could make copies of all of those in SketchUp with them rotated as needed and aligned so you can show them in a single scene. That's usually not all that useful though. I would make separate scenes in SU for those views and separate viewports for each scene in LO. Then, to align them, use the Precise Align feature by dragging that center doodad that appears when you select the view point to a corner you can use for alignment in the select viewport. Then move the viewport so that point aligns with the reference point in the neighboring viewport. They should snap into alignment. Then you can use the cursor keys to move the viewport over as needed while maintaining alignment. Shift will increase the move increment size with the cursor keys.
