    • Dynamic component function

      I want to have LenX positioned on a grid, so when I move the component it snaps to the nearest grid line I am using a 600 mm grid. Any ideas. I have
      =current("LenX") to read my position, but want to glue to grid lines

      Does anyone have a solution

    • RE: Construction & Working Drawings - Discussion

      I have just joined the forum and am working on a new project for a 6 storey building.
      I have done the whole thing in Sketchup and produced drawings in Layout, the results are being used for the planning application.
      I cannot share the information yet, but when the planning is through I will be able to. I have been using 2D autocad and found it
      difficult doing elevations and sections, moving to Sketchup and having a dynamic layout updated by the model is wonderful.
      I have not had trouble with accuracy or details. I have been using images of floor plans with extra detail and using them as an imported image.
      I find this makes it possible to put some of the time I had invested in autocad available in the sketchup model without doing an import of the autocad model with all of the problems that entails with faces etc.. I would like to be able to import a higher resolution pdf or jpg as an image but Sketchup seems to reduce the quality. Does anyone else have this problem.
