SketchUp 2018 is here! Deliver work you're proud of Smarter Sections Make Better Drawings Section planes now have names and symbols, making them easy to find and organise. Filled section cuts are now baked into SketchUp Pro! There is also improved performance for models that use section planes to hide a large amount of geometry. The more geometry you section off, the more you'll benefit! Need to add linework that's not in your model? Create a scaled drawing in LayOut and sketch over a 3D model to flesh out your project, or draw from details to scale directly in LayOut. With inferencing, chamfering and filleting, arcs, offset arrays and selections; LayOut is even better at everything you need to draw details or create beautiful illustrations at scale. Got BIM? There’s more! We’ve introduced Advanced Attribute fields for a component's Price, Size, URL, Type Status and Owner. Generate Report now aggregates component data so you can do things like configure reports to sum parts and quantities and cutlists, or create detailed estimates by adding up prices by layer. You can rely on IFC in SketchUp to transfer the attributes you assign and manipulate in projects, allowing for information to move freely between SketchUp and other applications. • Import DWG files into LayOut • Native support for importing and exporting STL files • Multi Viewport Dimensioning • Improvement to Outliner's overall load performance Contact Elmtec, SketchUp’s distribution partner in the UK E: [email protected] T: 01844 263750 W: www.elmtec.co.uk
