Viewports in SketchUp LayOut
- Paper space using LayOut is incredibly easy, especially because almost any file type can be inserted spreadsheets or tables, CAD files, images, and of course SketchUp models. You are given four exercise files for this video, because they all need to be linked together in LayOut. Just like an x-ref in CAD we need to have a file package of all inserted content within LayOut. You do not need to open any of the files, except this LayOut drawing. The tools you will use 90% of the time in LayOut are found to the right of the sheet. On Windows computers, it's called the default tray, just like in SketchUp. On Mac, these toolbars are stacked together but you can unstack and have them floating around. Again, just like in SketchUp, the first toolbar to look at is the pages toolbar. You can open and collapse any of these toolbars just by clicking on the name. Make sure the cover page sheet is highlighted, and go to the file…
