This makes so much more sense than the similar video in Sketchup campus. It's good to know how to turn off the visibility of the floorplan that you're tracing over. I may switch to watching your videos here rather than on their campus! Thanks
Awesome video I trace from surveys, photos, plans, & sketches so the video and templet will be a great help. Question, I use a PC what images are best the best to trace from, PDF, JEPG, PNG... Thanks for this video.
Thanks, good tips here. Will this also work with 3d images and perspective not just a 2d floor plan or do I need to make some adjustments to the template.
Do you have any hints on tracing "random" lines in images e.g. around the edge of a human outline? Because inferencing cannot be temporarily turned off, the line tool will annoying start snapping to random places, making it impossible to create accurate lines without having to zoom further and further in.
@@alpinist-4183 GAH! When did that appear! Now that I look at the status bar I see you can go from inferencing All ON, All OFF, Parallel/Perpendicular. I've been asking for this for ages, and then it stealthily appears 😑
This is so manual, time consuming, and not practical if you have a big detailed plan. You can simply convert image to vector and you will have editable lines
Awesome video, one of those why didn't I think of that..lol, nice job SKETCHUP people..already have one set up, so much easier.

I trace floor plans all the time. This will help a lot.
Very helpful... I'm adding this method to my workflow! Always great to see different techniques from others.
Great tutorial. Very clearly explained. Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!

@Eric Sargeant why sketchup development team not adding pdf import in windows..
A really excellent video. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!

That was really handy, thanks. I didn't know about x-ray mode. Now I do. 🙂
Oh man! This guy is good!!
LOL

If you want temporarily disable/enable inferencing of the line tool just click Alt.

Very Interesting
Thanks!
Nice 👌
