Adding a tag in a model, but not to all the scenes

SketchUp Pro
1

Is there a way to add a tag(layer) to a model but not necessarily to every scene? For example, I have a house design, and have already created my scenes (floor plans, elevations, sections, etc.). If I decide to add a new tag (exterior light fixtures for example), I have to manually turn off and update each scene I don’t want it to show up in. Sometimes I have 20+ scenes, so this becomes time consuming. Anyone have a trick? Thanks for a reply!

Use Auto Invisible Layer from the Extension Warehouse when you create new tags after having created scenes.

What version of SketchUp are you using? Please complete your forum profile.

What does that mean?

a nice way to say “pain in the ■■■■” pita :rofl:

I know what “PITA” means. You are implying that the extension is a PITA.

13

absolutly not

14

When we have to close tag in each scene it’s a pita

15

Perhaps brush up on your English idioms…
e.g.

Excellent, thanks Dave that is very much appreciated. It now works. Because it was a PITA before.

you can’t be good at everything, I’m here for help, if this is a place to be judged. I’ll understand that I’m not welcome. English is not my greatest strength, but I respect the people here by forcing myself to speak the popular language.
Have a good day

I simply pointed out that you didn’t say what you meant…

My language skills are also imperfect.
There is always Google Translate to help…

Sorry, but you missed my point.
If you say something is a PITA, that’s fine, but your wording was wrong.

  • [Thanks… The solution] now works. Because it was a PITA before.

Is correct, but…

  • It work because it pita.

means that the solution work[s] although it is [still or because it’s] a PITA.

Which I don’t think you meant…

I’m just trying to help you explain your issue clearly…

all that pita talk is making me hungry…
