      They're actually from 2009 but I forgot about them 😳

                  Paul: These are beautifully done!

                  I was teaching a lab section in which I needed electrical floorplan symbols, and could not find any for SketchUp, so I made some up. They are in a <a href="http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/search?uq=0653493766545200612055374&styp=c">collection at the 3D warehouse</a>. I also made ones for planning plumbing, 2D doors and windows, etc.

                  One thing you might consider doing, since you are creating groups that include 3D and 2D elements, is to place the different classes of objects into different layers. Put the actual electrical 3D fixtures in a '3D_electric' layer, the horizontal 2D symbols in a '2D_horizontal' layer and the 2D vertical symbols in a '2D_vertical' layer. Then, you can change their visibility globally in your model.

                      Great share Paul, and from Krisidious on another thread.

                      This does pose the question though, Electrical / Plumbing information as 2D overlays in Layout, or part of the 3D model in Sketchup? Makes sense in 3D I guess because any internal elevations will have the information included, although going to take a careful approach to layer status.
