Not sure if this is only happening to us but every time we open a Sketchup 2020 file the width of "Name" column resets under the new Tags ribbon? After adjusting the width so that we can actually some of the longer "Tag" names, it also resets if you simply minimize (collapse) the Tags ribbon.
Any solutions?
When I do interior elevations in my models, I set it up in a new sketchup file and reference in my 'base' model. This way i don't have a million scenes or section lines in my main construction model.
Be sure to change your Layout 'viewport' from raster to vector before you export to DWG. This will solve your issue.
I am by no means a computer expert, but do have a little advise for you.
I recently got an NVMe 960 Pro M.2 Hardrive. This plugs straight into your motherboard and speeds up the save / autosave and updating Layout files a lot! I would highly recommend it.
I also have the same graphics card as you and love it. Just make sure you have a decent power supply to run it. I had to upgrade to a 750w to run it as when pushed to the max it would crash the computer. Sketchup won't push it to the max, but programs like Lumion will.
Good luck, I hope this helps.
An additional item, why is that when you flip a note the text isn't smart enough to realize that we can't read backwards, mirrored text? Once flipped, to get the text correct, there are three additional steps required...
There is an alternate way of just moving the leader but that also requires multiple steps.
This applies to pretty much all text within Layout for notes, dimensions, section bubbles, grid lines, etc. ACAD has a nice simple toggle called "mirrtext" which easily addresses this.
Pretty pretty please Sketchup/Layout team!
What resolution are you rendering in? I render mine to 4096x2048 then take it into adobe premier cc 2017 and start a new sequence VR 4096X2048 Ambisonics. Add the image into the sequence (you can even view VR by right click on the image and VR). Then export as H.264 and upload to Youtube.
See example of mine below:
Effects are completed in after effects.
Let me know if you have any problems.
I have a handy little spreadsheet for this. Use it all the time....

Thanks everyone. I'm going to try out JQL's idea. In the meantime I have attached the site plan SU file. I'm not sure why there is sooo many lines.

Does anyone know a simple way to reduce the amount of lines on this site plan? Seems a bit excessive to me.
