    • Combine two drawings

      Hi Everyone

      I have drawn an exterior plan of my garden as two separate drawings and saved them in different files. I would like to combine them into one drawing. Can I do this and if so how? It would be a very significant effort to redraw the additional bits in either of the two drawings.

      Many thanks for any help.

    • RE: Drawing accurate triangles

      Many thanks Gaieus for the quick response. I have installed the plugin (my first!) and it works.

      Thanks again.

    • Drawing accurate triangles

      Hi everyone.

      I am a newby to the forum but have been using sketchup for my own use for some time - mainly to draw fairly simple things in a very simple way. I have been very impressed with the programme. So far all my examples have been based on right-angled objects.

      I have just started to use sketchup 8.

      I have been trying to draw an irregular shaped ground plan that is measured by a series of triangles. I have been trying to draw these using intersecting circles. However when I measure the distances to a point of intersection of two circles with the correct radii, I find that the intersection point is not accurate. Circles seem to be represented by polygons so the intersection points are not very accurate - the discrepancy is 30mm in 4000 in one of my examples.

      How can I draw these triangles easily and accurately in sketchup 8?

      I would greatly appreciate any help you can give.
