Hi,
I am adding wall sections to my set. On the plans I have a section detail marker for each wall section. How do I create an auto text that will generate the page number of the individual wall sections?

Thanks Dave! I think I need to go through a tutorial that explains the basics of tags and groups. I have never understood the sketchup tag - layer system. I do understand how to create groups, but components are still a bit of a mystery. If you have any tutorials that you can suggest that would be very appreciated.
I switched from 3D Max many years ago to sketchup so, some of that process + autocad process sticks with me.
Best,

oh, well the system will not allow me to upload a PNG or a jpg
The Mac OS Ventura 13.5.2 Apple M1 Max Layout 23.1.341
I have all of the viewports set to raster see screenshot. The attached PDF is from a PDF export.
Unfortunately, I cannot upload more than one file..
Export to pdf from the file drop down
I have a scene in sketchup with x-ray on. I have this scene in Layout and x-ray is working. When I export the sheet to jpg or pdf the x-ray disappears. Is there a work around?
Question, I just loaded the extension "Auto Invisible Layer ON/OFF" When I close sketchup do I have to remember to turn this extension on? It seems that way. Maybe I am doing something incorrectly.
Hi Rich. Thanks for your reply. I don't see a visibility setting(s) choice in my scenes drop down. I am not quite sure what it is that you are suggesting.
Unfortunately, the <SheetA#C> did not work. It just displays the page number. No C
The plugin "auto invisible layer" will it allow me to select a layer and have it turn on or off in all scenes? It seems this plugin is just when a new tag is created, it will not be visible in all the existing scenes. Which is good BTW. Just looking for more .. thanks.
I will try the auto text for sheet numbers. Looks interesting. Thanks
I had an extension called, "turn on tag in all scenes" enabled in sketchup.
It would ask me if I wanted to have a tag to be visible or invisible in all scenes. It was not working properly so I deleted it. But now I cannot find the extension. It is great. It allows you to make a layer visible or invisible in all of your scenes.
I know about the extension "auto invisible layer" it allows you to create a new layer and it doesn't turn on in all of your existing layers.
Have you heard of this extension? Where I can find it again?
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "Please complete your forum profile." I added more info.
How to label sheets in groups. I have civil, (C1-?) architectural, (A1-?) Landscape (L1-?) Also, how to set the font and size for an autotext - I am using Layout 23.1.341

PLEASE UPGRADE TO STANDARD DIMENSION AS AUTOCAD DIMENSION, UPGRADE OSNAP MORE ACCURATED ON OBJECT LINE
I would like to use an AutoCAD like radius dimension in sketchup Layout. Are you suggesting there is a plug in or extension to help Layout create radius dimensions?
Thanks,

I am getting a strange result from Fredo jointpushpull. I need the "J" button to extrude multiple faces to a certain distance, then re-extrude same face, create a perimeter division line on the object but to not create interior faces. See attached images. Any help?
thanks,
Ron
components to a grid does work, but this really isn't exactly what I need. thanks though!
Maybe a list version would work. Any suggestions for something that will list all components and give amounts of each component in model?
Thanks,
R
