or this series showing importing CAD dwgs, aligning plans & elevations to respective levels by robyn shrestha... https://vimeo.com/20773126

These links are great references. Thanks!

For those after me, the first has audio, and the Robyn Shrestha series is detailed but no audio.

**I have an exterior elevation CAD file that I would like to model in Sketchup Pro. I know how to import the CAD file but not sure how to create the model from the 2D Exterior Elevation drawing.

I could start with the floorplan and build the walls, adding the roof, etc.... But thought there might be an easy way or feature to start with the exterior elevation file?

Thanks.**
