[Trimble-Email-generic-new-800x600] Our New Year’s resolution was to make SketchUp work for you, and we are pretty proud of the results. Announcing workflow improvements galore in SketchUp 2020! This year we’ve got some shiny new features that we uncovered from our Bootcamp training sessions and …

It depends on whether you want to hide a whole “class” of similar objects or just one. If you want to hide just one object in a scene, an extra tag would be bloating the tag list. You can still do it if you want though. Also, the water is less muddy now as scenes treat object visibility more consis…

This type of discourse is why I love this forum. I appreciate your point of view. I’m going to see how well it works before going any further.

I think a large part of the Layers renaming is to do with the fact that tags are now available in LayOut too. So in LayOut you have layers like they are more universally known and tags to hide object visibility from the model. With the new functionality having two sets of Layers in LayOut that beha…

I follow Mike Brightman’s idea of using SU styles to control lineweights in LO. So in my SU floor plan file I have several scenes per floor each assigned a different style so that in LO I can get my lineweights. As a result some of my SU floor plan files can have too many scenes for my liking! In …

[image] PaulMcAlenan: In 2020 I can now have one scene per floor in SU and then in LO have as may stacked viewports as I like each assigned to a different style and with the appropriate tags enabled… This is a great use case. Another idea I thought of was for adding dimensions to a kitchen f…

This is exactly what I do except I did it in the SketchUp scene. And if I opened SU from LO it would update automatically when it sensed a SU save.

I’m particularly excited about having tags added to LayOut. One thing that peeves me is having to make a scene for just say a dashed line, which I prefer to add in SU mostly. I can now create one scene in SU with all the tags visible, import it into LO, turn off the tags I don’t need, stack the vie…
