Automatic orthographic view?
-
Is there an easy way to create an orthographic view of an object made in Sketchup? Plugin maybe?
Does SU pro layout contain this option possibly?
Thank you!

The Camera > Standard Views sets the then. The first 6 are Top, Front, ... etc
Remember to switch Perspective 'off' in such views...
Save each View with a new Scene tab and only use pan and zoom otherwise the orthogonal-ness is lost. Restore with the Scene-tab...
I think there is perhaps a plugin to set up a collect of all such tabs - search on 'crai'...
Of course you can make a template .skp with all of the s Scene tabs pre-made... -
There is a very handy $5 plugin by Jim Folz here http://sketchuptips.blogspot.com/2009/08/plugin-make-orthographic-views.html that makes ortho views of components. As a woodworker, I use it all the time to help in making shop drawings.

Hi folks.
For the "missing" (missing from the "Views" Tool Bar) "Bottom view", use Menu Camera --> Standard views --> Bottom.
Just ideas.

I think there is a plugin that creates a set of orthographics Scenes, no?
Here is one by Dider: ado

For my room interior projects I have created a template that has all the ortho views in place as scenes, together with their accompanying vertical and horizontal section planes, so that if I model the room around the origin, the needed views are all ready, all I need to do is slightly adjust the section plane locations.
