      I wish SketchUp didn't grayed the scale option when exporting PDF when I am in axonometric view. I cannot understand the logic in standart views to be able to export easily in scale but when you look the model from a different angle the scale option to be in gray. Now if I have more complex model (with more than 6 sides πŸ˜„) I have to rotate it to the global directions every time I want to project it from different angle. An other option is to change the page size (which is not grayed) until the scale on the right gets right πŸ˜„. I think this is may be the easiest wish to be realized, so I really hope this will be done any time soon.

        In LayOut, you can print to scale when you are not in those "Standard views" but in orthogonal (i.e. axonometric kind). I believe that the development team tries to focus their attention and resources on LayOut when it comes to 2D output (other than image export) and will not develop and enhance these functions in SU any more (after ll it would mean doubling the work and developing redundant functions).

        Certainly LO is a Pro only product but I can imagine (and understand) they also try to "encourage" sales this way.
