Hi,
This is probably quite easy but I dont know how to set the preferences for font, units, dimensions etc for every drawing that I do .
I know how to set them for individual drawings but it's getting quite tiresome having to change them every time!
Best Wishes
Chris

you have to make a template of the file
that is done by saving it as a Template in C:\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 6\Resources\en-US\Templates. (save as unnamed template or whatever)
once saved there you close the file.
open again the program and then search for :
click it and from now on your program will start with all your preferences to draw without making them all the time.

no problem,

Okay, I am 6 pages deep into this project in LayOut, and the font (reset) issue is frustrating me, now do I save this as a template too?
And how do I deal with different fonts, line weights, fill types as they emerge during the creation of the drawings process, save all of that as a template too?
