For the record I love SU & LO. Layout is way underrated!
That being said, can we update Layout (LO) with these requests:
- Snapping improvements (although moving node is great!).
- Sketchup (SU) like inference for drawing lines (LO is subtly different).
- Components like SU.
- Fillet & Extend like Autocad.
- Vector hatches – the ability to change line weights of lines in hatches.
- The ability to scale line weights universally inside groups by a single factor.
- Add multileader notes.
- The ability to set the horizontal length of a note leader’s as standard & to stay when moving.
- Editing notes/leaders is not as intuitive as most other things in SU & LO. (To be fair, this is a problem in all software programs I’ve ever used)
- Improve printer drivers
- Shape/fill/stroke selection refinement in terms of clarity in which you are editing.
- File size reduction and/or ease in subdividing drawings into separate files.
- The ability to turn on/off auto gluing to the ends of lines.
- Flexibility to apply lines (& line-weights) only to selected edges of a fill.
- Native Section Cut hatches by material (maybe back-face toggle on/off for material as well) as part of SU but live & editable in LO.
- Custom Style folder location does not show in Style within the SketchUp Model Tray in LO.
- A cloud/revision line within Layout. Maybe even a Revision management system.
- LO plugins.
- Paste in Place or paste attach to cursor
- When you right click a scene in LO to open in SU, it should open to that scene.
- Color by Layer in LO (Similar to Color by Tag in SU)
- Layout Warehouse (like SU Model) especially for Scrapbook details.
- Browser type navigation inside pattern selection window.
