The elevation faces have a material that would typically look the same in 3d & elevation (for sketchup this is the same). Your description of a ‘wall item’ that has different representations in 3d/plan/elevation/section is not a singular sketchup object.
But relearning all my design & production methods seems overwhelming.įor sketchup, keep in mind you either have materials painted to faces, or to a group/component. Or are there plugins that will take care of this? was looking at Skalp but seems quite old and only for sections?įunny, long time CAD & sketchup user, getting exhausted drawing everything twice and considering changing to Archicad. My fear is that with SU i’d be gaining some flexibility in modelling only to lose any time gained messing around with construction drawings… Is it possible to do something similar in SU? Similar situation with line types and weights When i save a view and place it on a layout, AC will apply the texture or hatch as needed automatically. So in 3D view I can apply a regular textured material, in plan view a diagonal hatch, in elevation a brick hatch, and in section a dotted hatch in AC I can assign different rendering style to a Wall item depending on whether the wall is viewed in 3D, plan view, elevation or section One immediate area i’m struggling with is controlling the look of the model in different viewsĮ.g. AC does all this of course but it’s clunky in the several areas, though it’s very fast in othersĬurrently looking into whether SU can do what i need faster I primarily design and need a quick way to create construction drawings.
