    Hello,

    First, I must say I like the new look of the forum. Good job!
    I trying to figure out the most efficient workflow for creating great looking plans and sections out of sketchup model that combine vectors and rasters but I want to be able to control the lineweights. I am interested in hearing what is your process? How would you go about creating a plan like the one below?

    I think i am getting there with Layout but it is a bit slow. Illustrator seems faster, but when I export the rasters out of sketchup and then the linework I still need to align and scale them in Illustrator - like when I am trying to align the walls (vectors) with floor materials (rasters).

    Cheers!

      Lack of control over line weights and line types was the major determining factor for me in why I don't draw house plans in Sketchup. I'd love to see that implemented.

        I use LayOut to deal with varying line weights. It works fine for plans for me.
