      Hello everybody, I use Sketchup since 5 years now but I never use the Matched Photo tools, so today I've a project, I have photos of the building and I learn how to use the tool but here's the "issue" I have.
      When I build my model with the tool I don't have the exacts mesures. For a vertical 120 cm line I don't have the exact mesure and so I would have a tip to have my final model with the exacts mesures. If a tool which look like the Scale tool in autocad exists in sketchup I'll be really interested.

      Maybe there's not clear at all, excuse my bad scientific english.

      Thanks

        Hi DB,

        There IS a scale tool in SU
        http://sketchup.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=94900
        and also, when done, you can scale the model to a correct proportion with the Tape measure tool, too.

        You need to know at least one precise measurement in your model of course.

          Thanks, I know the scale tool.
          In fact I want to select a line, enter the dimension of this line and scale it to this value.
          And with this line the entire model.

          thanks

            Then the second method - with the tape measure tool - is the way.
