      OK new to Sketchup and things are going good so far. What I need help is trying to get a beveled edge(in red on arrached picture). The bevel is going to go around the corner and continue on around the rest of the square. I know I'm missing something but for the life of me I can not figure just how to do it.

        You need a plugin - search here for Fredo's Round-Corner tool...

            A plugin just makes it easier - many simple bevels areeasy done with pushpull for straight edges or followme for sets of edges - however followme might go wrong and 'twist' unexpectedly on 3D edges that aren't all "coplanar" and "tangential"...

            Good twisted - all edges are 'tangential' -bevel-twist.png
            Bad twist - last edge is NOT tangential to an arc in the path -bevel-bad-twist.png
