Re-alignment of dimensions when scene is moved
-
On a couple of occasions I have adjusted a plan view scene in SU after I had dimensioned it in LO. I have been unable to find a way make the SU scene line up with the dimensions already in LO. When I try to move the scene around I can get it close but not exact. So far I have had to re-do the dimensions and scrapbook elements. Is there a way to do this? Thanks for any help.

It is possible to link dimension lines to vector lines in LO (make sure sketchup renders to vector or hybrid in layout). Then click the dimensions on the vector lines.
I try to avoid this problem by never changing my view of the scene in SU before updating the scene. Then make sure your 'viewport' is on a layer which you keep locked as much as possible. This will stop your SU model moving around the page every time you update your scene to LO.
Hope that makes sense/helps.

Thanks. I will give it a shot.
