      Hey,

      By changing some settings (see pic) I can make sketchup look like autocad:

      • Isometric top view
      • Black background
      • Line color by layer

      But it doesn't feel like it yet:

      • Some essential tools such as polylines are missing. Or the ability to force drawing on 1 plane.

      Does anyone have any idea if there is a plugin to provide autocad-like functions to sketchup?

        Use with my '2Dtools' which mimic many 2D CAD drawing tools...

            Enable Color By Layer
            And set your Style to colour edges By Material.

              Is this relevant?:
              Bezierspline plugin has polyline, among others. Allows to convert a selection of connected edges to polyline.

              I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.
