I finally finished drawing my house in sketchup make. since its made of lots of components, a lot of lines which do not exist in reality are showing on the outside.

To hide this lines I thought of drawing a the real facade as thin layer around the house. Ideally with 0 thiknes, 1mm or so would be ok as well. The problem I'm facing is that I have to make it 5cm thick to really hide the lines from behind. Which is not really practical.

I checked already the opacity which looks fine to me:

Any ideas how to make the facade realy hiding all the lines?

I upgraded to Sketchup 2017 Make a few hours ago. While creating scenes I realized that I'm unable to switch of guides (or axes).

1. All properties to save for scenes are active.
2. Go to a scene and deactivate guieds and axes via the view menu.
3. Update the scene.
4. Save the file.
5. Switch to an other scene. The guides and axes are visible again (which is fine).
6. Switch back to the first scene. The guides and aces are back again.

My expectation would be that the guides are saved as part of a scene or at least that switched of guides isn't lost up on every scene switch.

Any ideas?

I habe the same question. To me this looks as if this is no longer possible in the make version. You might have to buy the pro version to change options.
