Google Earth Pro

Yes.
Use SketchUp's Add Location to geo-locate your project.
Save your building (delete all other data) and export it to KMZ.
In GE Pro go to File/Import and change the file extension to All Files (.)
Find your file and import.

This is a quick shape I placed in my backyard just now to test.

Someone else may have more insight but I think this will only display on your copy of GE Pro. It won't upload to GE for all to see.

I have used this several times recently to do a quick display of a project on site.

It looks like you have other Google 3d data displayed. I don't have that on my GEPro. How do you get that?

[boofredlay]

I am not sure what is different.
This is the version I am running.

mine is plain 7.3.0 64bit. But there's no buildings or trees. Just image on terrain.

[boofredlay]

Turn your Sidebar on (ctrl+alt+b) or (View/Sidebar)and turn on 3D buildings in the layers palette.

So when you look out your back window you see that shape, right?

Yep, that is until I shut the program down, then poof it was gone.

so Eric. . .what are you planning on doing with that big white box in your back yard?

[boofredlay]

[david_h]

o...kay. .. .

[boofredlay]

That is from a show called Dexter. He is a blood spatter forensic expert for the Miami police department. Oh, and he is also a serial killer.

[david_h]

I knew it was from a TV show but one that I have never seen. . ..thankfully.
