Hi, My company recently upgraded my old sketchup pro license from sketchup 2017 to 2020 as layout was glitching with my older license. When upgrading, I am only able to download Sketchup Pro, and am unable to access Layout. Can anyone shed some light on this? Every webpage I am going to to try to download layout independently refers me back to the same sketchup pro 2020-1 zip file. If i remember correctly with previous versions of pro the zip file would contain a folder with both layout and regular sketchup to drag for download on a desktop. To clarify, we did not upgrade to the cloud subscription service, we only paid the additional fee to upgrade our old license to a newer version of sketchup. Could this be the issue, is layout only accessible with the cloud and not the standalone desktop version of pro?? Thanks in advance for the help. ---

LayOut is included in the installer for SketchUp 2020. You don’t install it separately. It gets installed automatically. If you haven’t already done so, go to [Download All | SketchUp](http://sketchup.com/download/all) and download the current installer. ---

Thanks Dave, I downloaded from that link initially. I finally found the problem. Had to find layout on my downloaded applications and drag it to my desktop. ---

SketchUp and LayOut should install together automatically. ---

Waaaay back in 2017, the Windows SketchUp installation left a shortcut for Layout on the desktop. It sounds like it does not do that anymore, hence the confusion? (using a mac now) ---

It should leave a shortcut. It always does for me anyway. ---

On Mac, unlike on WIndows, the installer does not create shortcuts on the desktop, only in the LaunchPad. If you want shortcuts on the desktop you have to put them there yourself. I prefer to pin them to the Dock, but that’s individual working style.
