I'm self taught, with some of the Aiden Chopra vids on YouTube. I don't know much about const lines. But wouldn't the point where two construction lins cross make an inference point?

What if I made a grid out of construction lines whch would give me a bunch of reference points to use (and put it on its own layer)

...which brings me to a related question. Sketchup doesn't let you offset just one line. You always have to slelect two lines. I don't understand that limitaton. Is there wa way to just offset one line?

Thank you for your ideas and assisitance.

Yes, that's not bad for when I started the design, but once smaller features need to correspond between floors, it's a problem. Sketchup is only for use with right angles?

Hiya,

I have two questions.

Say I'm making a two story house model... The floor plans have two biases. The first floor is on the regular orthogonal grid, which is reflected in Sketchup's three default axes. Work on this level is easy due to Sketchups inference.

But I have a 2nd plan (the second floor) that sits at a 50 degree angle. How do I get lines to extend along that bias? If I try to move the end of a line, it wants to follow the orthogonal bias (which has no reality in that plan) or float off indeterminately.

I'm already using layers to separate the two levels, for ease of use.

Thanks ahead of time.
