HI, I just start working with the trial pro version on my PC (downloaded version) and I cannot find out how to change sizes of objects. I saw several youtube videos and in these videos they simple adjust the size by typing the new sizes in a little bos right below in the screen. But after selecting an object I either do not see any numbers or if I see them, I can not adjust them. In both ways, I cannot enter the box to typ the size. Could anyone advice me on this? Thank you so much. Remco
Read about the Scale Tool using exact dimensions instead of scale factors.
Hi Jean, thank you for your advice. I figured out how to set the sizes I wanted while creating the object, but how can I adjust the size later on? I don’t understand the scale tool. It tells me what the enlarge factor is (as I understood it correctly) but I just want to adjust the size in cm. How can I do this?
Go to the Sketchup campus and SketchUp YouTube
Both offer great tutorials and videos that should help with your questions.
Thanks for the quick reply.l I have looked at these links but it seems I have to watch at all the video’s or do all courses just to know how I can adjust sizes as no video title refers directly to resizing objects. I only want to design a simple bed structure once. I am not going to use sketchup on regular base. You would do me a great fever just to explain me shortly how I can adjust sizes of existing objects. Thank you in advance.
Thank you so much guys.
